On the ferry back towards home. Bye bye duckie!
In case, you have the song in your head already and wanted to hear the whole thing, haha!Rubber Duckie You’re The One…
You have made Hong Kong loads of fun! After a little over a month of bobbing along in the Hong Kong Harbor, the giant 54-foot (4 stories high) rubber duck is leaving Hong Kong. After sailing into the Harbor on May 2nd, the rubber duck was towed away this week on the way to its next destination - the United States...the exact location is currently a secret, but I read somewhere that it's Pittsburgh! Since 2007, the rubber duckie has traveled to 13 different cities in 9 countries including Osaka, Syndey and Sao Paolo! Created and imagined by Dutch Artist Florentijn Hofman, the hope is for the rubber duckie to spread peace and joy around the world.
This past weekend, my hubby and I visited the Rubber Duckie to say our goodbyes and get some photos. I couldn't believe the amount of people lined up along the water to catch a glimpse, take pictures and buy duckie souvenirs! Stalls and shops were set up to sell stuffed yellow duckies, duckie balloons, duckie t-shirts and tote bags and of course yellow rubber duckies for the bathtub. I couldn't resist and ended up buying one. Goodbye Rubber Duckie, thanks for making Hong Kong loads of fun!
Boogie, Woogie, Woogie!
It's electric...Boogie, Woogie, Woogie! Who hasn't danced to the Electric Slide at least once in their life, right? My fondest memories of the electric slide are from middle school parties and now it's funny how it keeps popping up at weddings! Wearing my electric neon yellow blouse this weekend made me want to do the electric slide, ha!
Happy Monday and I hope you had a nice weekend!

Spotted-Running Shoes
So let's just say I have been pretty bad about going to the gym lately. I've been having so much fun with Lucu and taking her on walks, that I seem to rationalize our walks together as my daily workout. However, that's just not cutting it! Some of you may know that I ran the Marine Corps Marathon a few years ago...what a challenge and an amazing experience, one I will never forget! But since the marathon and a knee injury, I have toned down my long distance running and started focusing more on indoor equipment and some great workout videos. My love affair with workout videos began with Taebo, then moved on to Pilates and more recently, I've been contemplating trying Insanity. (If anyone has tried Insanity or has any suggestions for some good workout videos, please let me know!) Anyway, regardless of what workout regime you DO or DO NOT fit into your daily schedule, everyone needs a good pair of sneakers, tennis shoes or running shoes, number 74 of MY ONE HUNDRED. In today's style, I'm wearing a pair of Chucks, which really aren't running shoes, but a great pair of everyday "sneakers" that I like to run around town in. Below, I wanted to share some of my favorite running shoes I've noticed lately online. I hope you enjoy today's post and have a wonderful weekend!
