Friendly Greetings from Ornella in Swakopmund,
Namibia
& Cordially Welcome to our first Giardino e-News!
I've got plenty to tell you
(maybe Sam will get a word in too...),
so here we go:
Those of you who regularly visit
our website are
already familiar with its
News Section and know from the many entries that
we kept pretty busy over the last 2 years. Guests just love the results
- check the
feedback!
In the early days of 2009, we still thought that
taking a break from all the improving of facilities and re-arranging
of furniture would be nice but ... well, the 'building bug' got the better
of us again!
Read more...
And let me tell you, I am suffering! Not because
these upgrade-crazy humans around me stole one of my favourite hiding
places in the garden (there's plenty of space to find a new one) ...
they put me on a strict diet - vet's orders! Can you believe it? Me who
loves her snacks so much, especially those that our foreign visitors bring along for me.
Anyway, I can proudly report today that
this gorgeous lady on four paws
minus 4kg is almost irresistible again - but just you wait, until I lost
the remaining surplus! When I let my fur down, no one will want to stay
anywhere else but with ... okay-okay, Sam ... with us, at the Giardino!
Otherwise, Namibia is doing rather well despite of
these economically challenging times, which goes to proof that our
country is
indeed
a very special travel destination, with many loyal repeat
visitors.
Since most Namibian regions received very good summer rain falls, some
even as late as early May, we are probably in for some pretty chilly
winter nights over the coming few months. So please do tell your
customers travelling to our part of the world to pack some warm 'jamies'
... except, of course, for the Giardino, as all our
guest rooms do have
heaters and snugly down-feather duvets. And the fire place in the
restaurant will also be kept going. We wouldn't want to spoil the cosy
atmosphere for guests enjoying leisurely extended
breakfasts and gourmet
dinners, would we? We might not always watch the bathroom scale so well
but we always make sure our guests experience the kind of holidays they
seek and deserve - only the best, most inspiring!
For more news, simply check for links to our
website around this email, and don't forget either to head over to our
product manual, the "Giardino On-line Guide", once in a while ... we
produced some pretty nifty new sales tools (i.e. info pages) for you
too.
Sam, did you want to add anything? No, great, then
we're done for now!
Until next time ... nice chatting with you and hope to
see you soon at the Giardino ...
pssst, don't forget to smuggle in some treats!
Ta-Ta,
 or if
you'd prefer ...
Kind regards
Ornella

Those of you who wonder what happened
to our plans for building more rooms:
The extension building is still on the
cards and we keep looking for nice things to make it really luxurious.
Only the paperwork still seems to be taking forever and so we do not
expect construction works to begin before 2010 ... if we are going to be
so lucky.
Our newsletters will keep you informed of
progress! |
