Sunset Sunday – Kota Kinbalu, Malaysia on the island of Borneo

One afternoon I spoke to a fellow Villanova alum and swapped travel stories over a few steins of German pilsner at a local beer garden.

Sunset Sunday – Sunset on the Mazatlán Malecón

Sunset Sunday – Sunset on the Mazatlán Malecón

I reviewed the scheduled itinerary for Mazatlán and immediately looked at see where I’d be for sunset each night.

Sunset Sunday – Sunset at Keystone Resort, Colorado

The horizon seemed to brighten and I knew the moment arrived. I put down my drink, grabbed my camera and started to walk up a snowless ski trail to the top of the mountain. I left the Taste of Vail event located at 11,444 feet behind to climb up even further.  And it took time […]
