I would like to say Congratulations to the RM Restoration team for their amazing work on the 1933 Delage that won “Best of Show” at the Concours d’Elegance! Congratulations to the RM Auction’s team for their hard work at the auction which brought in...

Car tour, A wedding and a Funeral
The header on my blog reads “Veronica on the go… Try to keep up” I think that I’m the one having a hard time trying to keep up now!
A few days ago I was given a surprise… and I LOOOVE surprises! I thought I was going to San Diego… but instead… I went to Massachusetts!...
Monaco – Monte Carlo
Monaco: Just under 2 km² with an estimated population of almost 33,000; making it the most densely populated country in the world.
As with most of my trips, there is just never enough time to really appreciate the destination for what it is. Monaco is a beautiful country filled with both old European architecture as well as...
Muchas Photos!
My suitcase is still full, but the photos are up! These are the priorities in life!
Our trip took place in Guadalajara, Lake Chapala, Tequila, Puerto Vallarta, and Manzanillo. All very beautiful, all very tasty! My tolerance for spice is certainly heightened right now! I am going to have to keep up with eating spicy food...
Vacation Day Seven: Rally Day
He has maped out every inch of the roads… He could probably drive it blind folded. He is confident… but I am worried!
Thankfully today’s rally isn’t about winning, but about being part of a prestigious group of honorable racers.
My day was spent with Giovanni; the Girardo family’s long time friend and mechanic. I should mention that...
Vacation Day Six: Mapping out the road ahead
Most of today’s photos come to you from the inside of the car. I am a little surprised at how well a lot of them turned out since we were whipping around the bends at 100km/h. This was my first glimpse at what Max’s rally life is all about. I was hoping it would give me...
Vacation Day Five: I’m never going home!
I can’t think of a better way of starting out a day than to walk along the ocean side. Welcome to Santander, Spain. I read that a large part of the city was burned to the ground in the 1940’s, but Santander is still spilling with historic Spanish scenery. The Markets were filled with meat!...
Vacation Day Four, Part 2: Loredo & Castro
Hello Spain!
Hello Sunshine!
Hello chocolate delectible delights!
Spain is beautiful! What more is there to say! In every direction, there were more and more photos to be taken. It’s hard to take “photographs” when you are trying to keep up with the rest of your party. I could have spent hours in the towns absorbing all of...
Vacation Day Four, Part 1: Spain… WHAT is that noise???
We arrived at the small Santander Airport after dark on Monday night. The air was cool and it looked like it had just finished raining. Off we go to the hotel in Hoznayo to eat and sleep… tomorrow is going to be a long day!
At 5am, I was awakened by a frightful sound! What is that...
Vacation Day Three, Part Two: What time is our flight?
Have you ever miscalculated your travel time to get to the airport on for a flight… to a different country? A lot of people have. In my opinion, that means you travel too much! It all becomes second nature!
We got to the airport at 4:15pm. Our gate closed at 4:20pm, we hadn’t even gone through baggage/passport check...
