The ATMEX (Adventure Tourism Mexico) conference held in September officially opened in Catemaco, Veracruz. The event was attended by much of the top political brass from the state of Veracruz and also Gloria Guevara, Mexico’s Secretary of Tourism at the time. Attendees watched inspirational videos, listened to speeches, dined, smoked local cigars and of course […]

Sunset Sunday-The View of the River in San Blas, Mexico
by Craig Zabransky on March 3, 2013 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
When I first arrived in San Blas, Nayarit on my road trip from Mazatlan the sun was setting. Luckily, I just pulled into town before dark. At the time, I still had no reservations for a hotel, but before I started inquiring about rooms I stopped along the river and took a sunset image. As […]
Ah Chihuahua-Walking Across the Copper Canyon
by Craig Zabransky on March 1, 2013 in Mexico Travel, Photo
A new adventure park in Chihuahua, the Copper Canyon Adventure Park, set up high speed zip-lines and suspension bridges to allow thrill seekers to cross the Copper Canyon. Sure, for some, the beauty of this Mexican treasure is best appreciated from the train through the Copper Canyon region or perhaps with a cocktail during sunset […]
The Beach at The Moorings in Islamorada, FL
by Craig Zabransky on February 28, 2013 in Beach
Visitors don’t (or shouldn’t) come to the Keys for solely a beach holiday. That said, they are a few gems. One of those is the beach at the Moorings in Islamorada. The Moorings, or Moorings Village and Spa is a high end luxury property. Visitors essentially stay in beach front houses not hotel rooms. And […]
Parasailing in the Upper Florida Keys
by Craig Zabransky on February 26, 2013 in Destination
I consider the Florida Keys an American paradise. Yes, I do. And there are multiple ways to appreciate its beauty. One of my favorite ways is from the sky. Yes, take to the sky in a parasail and view majesty of the water and the islands (or keys) from above. Key Largo Hilton and Caribbean […]
A Beach with History, the Petroglyphs of Las Labradas
by Craig Zabransky on February 21, 2013 in Beach, Mexico Travel
Las Labradas translates to “the carvings.” And the beach just north of Mazatlan is filled with carvings on its coastal rocks. Travelers don’t come here to swim or soak in the sun, but rather to take a look at the numerous and mysterious petroglyphs. Known to locals for hundreds of years, the engraved rocks have […]
Sunset Sunday-The Mazatlán Carnaval Parade Halftime Sunset
by Craig Zabransky on February 17, 2013 in Sunset Sunday
Sunday’s spectacular Carnaval Parade in Mazatlán even provided the 400,000 who lined the malecón with a vibrant half time show – the sunset. All week during Mazatlán Carnaval the sunset impressed, and as much as I wanted to capture the themed floats along the malecón in the best (my favorite) hour of light it wasn’t in […]
Getting Photographed in my Kilt on the beach, Isle of Arran, Scotland
by Craig Zabransky on February 14, 2013 in Beach
I never thought I’d be involved with the beach photos, but when I dressed up in a traditional Scottish Kilt at a wedding on the Isle of Arran, I was automatically put into the van. It is a tradition in Scotland. All men brave enough to wear a kilt at a wedding get photographed. I […]
