Sunset Sunday – Sossusvlei Lodge, Namibia

by on August 1, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

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 […]

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

by on July 25, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

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 […]

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

by on July 18, 2010 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday

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 […]

Sunset Sunday – Benton, PA (Happy 4th of July)

Sunset Sunday – Benton, PA (Happy 4th of July)

by on July 4, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

Sometimes the search for ‘Americana’ needs to take people out of the city. And although I love the 4th of July celebrations and fire works display of New York City, to find a unique slice of America, that apple pie making corner, I believe (at times) one must venture to the countryside. Thankfully from New […]

Sunset Sunday – The Chobe River, Botswana

by on June 27, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

On a day when I traveled through four countries. A flight from South Africa to Zambia, than a bus through Zambia, Zimbabwe and into Botswana I eventually arrived at Chobe Safari Lodge. After the welcome drink and a scented, cool, wet towel to freshen up, I decided to walk to the river’s edge to see my […]

Sunset Sunday – Pretoria, South Africa

Sunset Sunday – Pretoria, South Africa

by on June 20, 2010 in Sunset Sunday

When you visit Pretoria, South Africa, (or the renamed Tshwane, South Africa) I recommend a walk through the grounds and gardens that surround the Union Buildings. The location serves as the republic’s executive capital, but achieved its global fame in May of 1994. As I walked the grounds, part of me just admired the beauty of […]

Sunset Sunday – Puerto Escondido

Sunset Sunday – Puerto Escondido

by on June 13, 2010 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday

Simply known as Puerto. The sleepy fishing village in Oaxaca, Mexico also claims home to the Mexican Pipeline. A perfect pacific Mexican escape. I enjoyeda long weekend on the coastal beach town of “Puerto” when I called Mexico City my home.  And although I prefer the Mazatlan native “el Pacifico,” I can hardly disagree that the […]
