The Thirsty Elephant Herd along the Chobe

The Thirsty Elephant Herd along the Chobe

After witnessing the excitement of a single elephant on the edge of the river taking a drink, the boat headed a bit deeper into Chobe National Park. Then as we drifted, a breeding herd came for a sip. By the end of my African adventure, my ‘elephant in the wild’ counter may have topped 100 across […]

Sunset Sunday – Sossusvlei Lodge, Namibia

Sunset Sunday – Sossusvlei Lodge, Namibia

Before the tour took the journey from Sossusvlei to Swakopmund across the desert and barren landscape of Namibia, we stayed at the Sossusvlei Lodge. Just a few kilometers from the entrance to the famous and impressive sand dunes of Sossusvlei the group settled in for the first of two nights. The looming tour of the […]

On the road from Sossusvlei to Swakopmund

Africa-NamibiaCountryside-cZabransky

I wanted to share a photo I took in Namibia on the road from Sossusvlei to Swakopmund. To me this photo speaks. It simply and softly says, “Africa.” And to get you excited as July ends, I want to explain “All Africa – All August” here at Stay Adventurous. Starting this Sunday, August 1st (or really today) […]

Oysters with a pearl of wisdom in Mazatlan, Mexico

Oysters with a pearl of wisdom in Mazatlan, Mexico

Oysters. For some, the ultimate delicacy, for others just another mollusk. And whether you believe it’s a myth or a fact that about its aphrodisiac powers upon digestion, I think we all can agree, the fresher the better.  And nothing is fresher than pulled directly from ocean after you place that order. That is exactly […]

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

The Green Flash. Sunset aficionados know about it. Some don’t believe it exists, some quest for it like a crusade for the holy grail, and others, the fortunate few, can claim witness to its majesty. I’ll admit I remained semi-skeptical until that day.  The day when walking along beach and watching the sun dip into […]

Lunar Landing; The Giant Leap’s Anniversary

As a tribute to Neil Armstrong, I wanted to re-feature this post this week. It was inspiring for me to reread, I hope it inspires you too.

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

I arrived early enough to order a Margarita at the bar. After a self guided tour of Todo Santos I stopped back to Hotel California to relax, and eventually call for a taxi. Inside Jack Johnson tunes took over for the Eagles soundtrack and I noticed the lunchtime crowd cleared, a positive indication that the […]

A Return to ‘Hill Street Blues’ in Amsterdam

A Return to ‘Hill Street Blues’ in Amsterdam

A new adventure awaits on every trip. But that doesn’t mean you never revisit the places you visited on prior travels. Of course, your time might not be the same. New memories await. And even if the place hasn’t changed – I learned you have. A recent trip to Amsterdam, my third, included both a […]
