On a recent trip to the upper Florida Keys, I decided to meet up with Claudia one of the founders of the Florida Keys twitter chat for a sunset. We selected the Bayside Grille in Key Largo. Located at mile marker 99.5, the location offers a restaurant upstairs and a more casual bar below. We [...]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset in the Parque Central of Quetzaltenango (Xela)
Quetzaltenango or more commonly referred to by its simplified indigenous name Xela, is the second ...
Sunset Sunday – A Sunset Meal and Magic at Marker 88
Meals at sunset in the Florida Keys can be found up and down US1, the Overseas Highway. Directions to any of the places to watch the magic will also always include a mile marker. Of the 110 plus miles (or markers) from the mainland to Key West (mm 0), I’d recommend a few along the [...]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset in Mallory Square, Key West
When people think of sunsets in the Florida Keys many think Mallory Square in Key West. It’s a good choice. On my first visit to Keys, now over a decade ago, I watched my very first Florida Keys Sunset from Mallory Square. And now with each visit down to Key West I make a point [...]
Passage through the Panama Canal in Photos
Passage through the Panama Canal is on most maritime travelers’ bucket lists. And now after a recent cruise through the Caribbean I can check it off mine. The canal itself is impressive, very impressive. It is a modern marvel approaching 100 years operation still with its original locks. “Panamex” compliant cruise ships (a max of [...]

The slow, sleepy, port itself doesn’t offer much insight into the explorer who enlightened Europe on a “new world,” but it does serve as the gateway to his very dream [...]
Sunset Sunday – A Balcony Sunset at Sea
The balcony. A must when selecting a cruise for a vacation. Why? There are many reasons, but my favorite – the sunset. On my most recent cruise, the ten day Panama Canal Sunfarer, I only watched the sunset on land once. It was the sunset on Eagle Beach in Aruba. So for nine nights I [...]
Thailand Adventures
When you think of Thailand you’re more likely to imagine clear oceans and all-night beach parties than an adventure playground packed with adrenaline-boosting things to do and see. But thanks to its natural advantages and its encouraging attitude towards tourism, the country has one of the most thriving adventure sports scenes in the world. Thanks [...]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset on Eagle Beach in Aruba
We docked in Oranjestad at 1pm. The itinerary allowed for ten hours ashore with a planned 11pm departure. Aruba marked the only day on the ten day adventure at sea with the Holland America ms Zuiderdam I’d be on land to watch a sunset. Friends told me the island of Aruba offered plenty of wonderful [...]
