Life in the East: One of my Favorites!

A few months back we were having a Girls Night at my friend Jenny's house, (actually watching another all time favorite "Sound of Music" - are we dorks?) and I saw this movie sitting on her shelf of DVD's UPOPENED! I couldn't believe she had never even seen it. It has been one of my favorites movies since I was young...but I hadn't seen it in such a long time - that I had kind of forgotten about it...well not forgotten..but you know what I mean...so I borrowed it (and have yet to return it to her...whoops...hee hee...), then last week I saw the movie at my good friend, Jackie's house...She didn't have a choice but to watch it with me....I just love it! I told my husband that one day (many years from now) we need to go to that hotel! It looks so amazing! If you haven't seen it...you definitely need to. - warning - it is kind of depressing...but most good love stories are at some point....

Damon has also informed me that he really likes this movie, and he has tried to pull it off our shelf to get me to watch it with him...kind of funny....
