Dutch people overwhelmingly support equal rights for gays, and the country became the world’s first to fully sanction gay marriages in April 2001. So when I found out it was Gay Pride week the weekend I was going to Amsterdam, there was no way I was going to miss the parade. I expected something fabulous, and I was not disappointed. This was one big canal side party.
The Gay Pride “Naughty Boat” Parade is the high point of Gay Pride week. The boat-floats feature gay, lesbian, and transgender people, some of them “dang near naked.”
The streets along side Prinsengracht canal were lined with hundreds of thousands of gay right supporters. When I say this was one big party, I’m telling you, house music blasting everywhere; people hanging out on balconies, and windowsills of canal side houses. Oh yea…and pink, pink, and mo pink everywhere.
The video is below. The video and editing is rough; I’m on the road, and I’m slightly lazy. LOL But, this gives you an idea as to what I saw and experienced.
Enjoy!!

Everyone who knows me know that when I go to Stockholm, I go on a sugar binge. Stockholm’s candy stores are like no other. And, it’s no secret that I’m addicted. I don’t try to hide; I wallow in it.
Following is a video of my favorite GodisCenter (candy store) located in Hötorget metro station. Check out all that yummy candy.
Yesterday morning I left New York after 6 fabulous days cruising this city. It didn’t take long for me to fall in love…
December 28th was my 1 year anniversary for living in Saudi Arabia. During that time, I received a lot of questions about living here. I answer some of those questions in this video. The 1st year was dedicated really to my just adjusting to the environment, and just surviving. There was a lot happening in that year that I was adjusting to in regards to “life transitions”. My son was on his own, I quit my job, became a housewife, and moved to a country in which I’m not really considered a person…I’m my husband’s dependent. All of these seemed to drain me at times as I tried to redefine who I was, and what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. It’s amazing how when you have time on your hand…and you’re away from the “daily grind” of what was once your life. The 2nd year I think will probably be more about finding myself again.
This video is shot in my living room, in Saudi Arabia.
Peace!!
