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. […]

The Adventurous Life – Kayak the Complete Coastline of Mexico
by Craig Zabransky on December 12, 2012 in Adventurous Life, Mexico Travel
I met Abraham Levy in the back of the bus heading to a sponsored fiesta during the ATMEX conference held in Veracruz. After a week of discovery and learning many new things about Veracruz, I was looking forward to a few drinks and celebrating my last night. But on the ride through the city streets, […]
Sunset Sunday – Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
by Craig Zabransky on December 9, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
I often wonder why major resorts build on beaches without a view of a sunset.

One […]

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 […]

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 […]
