Off and Away...
Ever since I was old enough to dream, I dreamed of going around the globe... So here is the first part of my Around the World in 20 Days trip. Destination: Bali (via Seoul and Singapore) Day 1,2 - I fly....and fly....and fly....

I did what, AGAIN?!?!
Yes, its that time of year again (January) where for no reason what so ever I go buy a new car. No, this is not deja vu - my blog did not suddenly return to last year this time. Ok, so without further adieu, here is the second to complete the AMG set!:
There is no reason an SUV needs four pipes EXCEPT when the engine kicks out over 500+ hp. Yes, this "SUV" is as fast (or slightly faster) than my other car 0 - 60 (4.7 seconds). This puppy does it in AWD so traction is not an issue.
Its the same obsidian black as the SLK and the most important thing, it is another AMG. I gotta tell you, I could not be more pleased with the balance of sport and luxury than I am. I keep saying "I" as if this were my car...Yes, its Maddie's car and I get the pleasure of being a passenger and the occasional driver. The DVD player for the backseat is for the long trips, not sure if I want to fight to drive or sit in the back! I love the key-less entry and go - just walk up to the car, touch the handle and it will unlock the doors and get inside and press the GO button and the engine fires up and the neighbors know you are leaving (Did I mention this thing has a growl?)
Last but not least, the boys fit perfectly in the back so we have a family machine that everyone can enjoy the thrill of launching forward, together! (Jack didn't like it so much the first time, he got a little motion sickness, hee hee)
One last thought before I go, apologies all around for the time it takes me to post stuff. I'd say I will get better but I am about to leave for a trip around the world and don't have a lot of time to get stuff up here. I will try to get my trip posted so you can follow along. Which you could almost do in this car if it had wings :-P
