This past year, I visited Glacier Bay National Park on board a Holland America cruise ship. Incredible. And talking to the National Park Rangers on the observation deck when we entered the park by ship was a real treat. Their knowledge and appreciation for landscape left an impression, as did Alaska.

One Bucket List Item for 2015
Let’s all complete one Bucket List item in 2015: The travel blogging world lost Anita Mac, who took her own life, in 2013. Those of us involved in this post want to pick up the torch where Anita left off (her blog focused on bucket list travel) and pledge to accomplish one item from our […]
Exploring the Beauty of Crete, Greece
I recommend visiting the Greek Islands by sea, sailing them. And when exploring the beauty of Crete plenty of sailing opportunities exist, but I learned it would take you the better part of a week to sail around Crete itself. It’s big. Crete, Greece’s Big Island Crete is the biggest Greek Island and 5th largest […]

The views are simply stunning. The Santorini […]

But, I am not sure many people think of even catching a sunset when in New York. Let’s face it, there is so much else to catch. And […]
Sunset Sunday, Lock in the Love for a Dublin Sunset
When I say “Dublin” I am guessing the first word that comes to mind is not “sunset.” I am not surprised, but I imagine a few people might think of the word “love.” Whether it is a love for the city, love for the Irish or just love for a pint of Guinness; love is […]
Tasting Chilaquiles Verde in the Riviera Maya and Yucatan
When I travel to Mexico breakfast often, if not always, translates to Chilaquiles Verde. Every trip and everywhere I dedicate one morning (if not more) to tasting my favorite Mexican Breakfast dish. What are Chilaquiles? Simply stated, the dish originates from a peasant’s meal (as many great dishes do) with “day old” tortilla chips baked, […]
