Video of Studio Azul



Here's a little preview of Casa Azul (the "artist studio loft") at Casa Kenwood Guesthouses, taken on the Flip Minno. It's a little shaky, but it works for now :)

Our brand new waterfall!

After a lot of hard work, it's just about done! Although as I type those words, I can imagine that Andrew will be tinkering with it for a long time. But I am really excited about how the waterfall (dedicated to my mom) has turned out. We named it "la cascada de Nelida" (which means "Nelida's cascade/waterfall"). I know Mom really would have enjoyed it. Now we're at the point where we're filling in the landscape with lush vegetation. It really is like a tropical paradise. It's a great place to hang out and read a book. And of course, you can hear the three tiers of water as they splash against the rocks while you lounge on casita roja's porch. Just heavenly. I recently had oral surgery and spent the rest of the day sleeping off the meds by napping in the hammock on casita's porch. It was great! (well...not the oral surgery part!) Now we're considering putting in a saltwater pool. Hmmmmm. Stay tuned for more exciting changes to casa kenwood guesthouses!
