OOPS! KISSES HAS A LOOK-A-LIKE TOO - AND WAIT 'TILL YOU SEE HER!

I had to follow up on "my" Odessa. She stopped me dead in my tracks at the Eden Roc-Nobu Hotel in Miami Beach. It wasn't because she was standing on her head. Although I hope to see this beautiful yoga instructor do that when I can stand on my head again.
