Airplane Hotel Room

Airplanes and airlines are making a huge comeback in a very unique way. I received an email the other day about the hotelicopter. It's essentially a cruiseline that takes you around the caribbean on a helicopter. I'll write a more detailed entry on that one when their website launches.

For now I'd like to highlight this hotel room in Costa Rica. It's a beautiful 2 bedroom hotel room in the rainforest of costa rica. The best part is that it is a 727 plane! The wing is an outdoor balcony. Inside, you have a master bedroom with master bath. There is also a second bedroom, a tv room, a dining room and kitchen.

Imagine accommodations in an airplane! Read more about it at www.costaverde.com/727

Women in Wine (TM) Series: Ruby's Possession

I am a huge fan of wine. I generally drink a glass a night. Red wine is my favorite, particularly Pinot Noir.

When it comes to decorating my place, I generally choose deep reds and purples as well, but choosing the artwork is always a bit daunting. There are many gorgeous works of art out there, but to pick pieces that would work with my personality and sense of decor isn't always the easiest.

It was so fitting of me to stumble upon Leanne Laine Fine Art. I can't remember how I came upon her work, but I am so impressed with the quality, the detail and of course the subject matter. She really embodies the way *I* feel about wine... and puts it on a canvas.

On top of that, her work is affordable. Amazing art is rarely affordable, but Leanne's work is! As I look towards buying a place when I return to Boston, I know I will look toward Leanne to help me decorate.

I think I'll start with the piece pictured in this post. It is red wine embracing elegance and class.
