Two Days at Tikal – The Mayan Ruins in the Jungle of Guatemala
by Craig Zabransky on December 21, 2012 in Destination
Located in the jungles of Guatemala, the relatively remote Mayan Ruins of Tikal are impressive. I spent the better part of two days inside the grounds and still didn’t see everything. But from my time walking among the ruins I learned to further appreciate the Mayan Culture I’ve already grown to know from places like […]
Sunset Sunday – Veracruz, Mexico
by Craig Zabransky on December 16, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
Veracruz, located on the gulf coast of Mexico, offers access to the sea. And although the sun does not dip into the Gulf of Mexico, a sunset can still be appreciated from the coastal city. On my last evening staying at the Galeria Plaza Veracruz I looked outside and noticed this view. Happy Sunset Sunday. […]

Sunset Sunday – Hill Country Sunset in San Antonio, TX
by Craig Zabransky on December 2, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
Sometimes a sunset finds you. Originally, I thought my chances for a magical sunset in the hill country of Texas were above average. Sure, I wanted to catch one more central to San Antonio, but my schedule didn’t allow it (this trip) so I stayed out in the “hill country” and asked the concierge of […]
A Winter Wonderland at the Great Wall of China
by Craig Zabransky on November 28, 2012 in Destination, Featured
With early morning snow flurries in Beijing I wondered how the weather might affect our drive to Mutianyu. Thankfully, the flurries faded and we enjoyed a smooth ride to the Great Wall of China. The dusting only provided an accent to the scenic labyrinth of stones structure before our eyes. The snow created a winter […]
