i bless the rains...




down in africa.

it's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
there's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
i bless the rains down in africa
gonna take some time to do the things we never had

I remember when I first moved to NYC, that was one many songs that I played whenever I got homesick.

Lisa, these are some of the most gorgeous blogger photos I've ever laid eyes on :) You're a goddess!

You are so lucky to live in such a place. And I can only imagine how gorgeous your bf's family's beach house is.

zoë said...

i love the toto song .
i hope that's the one you're reffering too ..

because now there's this bs remix going around that's driving me bananas .
it's catchy as hell but not as good as the original, 4 SHO ;]




anyways these pictures are simply amazing, as if you can just head out to the desert and take pictures wearing an amazing blazer .. quite the life you lead :)
