A Charity Casting Contest at Fat Buoyz

A Charity Casting Contest at Fat Buoyz

At first, when I heard “casting contest,” I wondered if reality TV decided to come to the Florida Keys.  After so much time down here, I truly believe a show about life on the souther tip of Florida can top the nielsen ratings. But just steps away from Islamorada, the “Sports Fishing Capital of the […]

Sunset Sunday – The Florida Keys Oceanside Sunset View

Sunset Sunday – The Florida Keys Oceanside Sunset View

Times exist when you wonder. You stare at the sky and wonder if the sun has already set or if the day still “officially” holds a few minutes.  You can’t see the sun dip over the horizon. Many times this winter in Florida Keys I found myself on the “oceanside” and not the “bayside” with […]

Sunset Sunday – San Sebastian, Spain

Sunset Sunday – San Sebastian, Spain

People always ask me, “What is your favorite destination?”  To be honest, I don’t have a specific answer. I cannot say just one place. One time. One trip.  Every place contains charm.

Green, the new color of Travel?

Green; the color of money (in the US), the color of envy? the color of energy? Maybe all three? Maybe you have none? But actually ‘green’ also seems to be becoming the color of travel. Words like “sustainability,” “organic” and “eco-tourism” are more and more prevalent each and every day.  We all read them on travel websites […]

Sunset Sunday – Sunset Sail in Tavernier

The magic of a sunset seems to multiply on the water.  And when you climb aboard a sailboat, well that may just be the ultimate. During my time in the Florida Keys this month I discovered Sunshine Sailing in the upper keys (MM 94.5) and just yesterday Captain Jennifer MacLean, a women of (and) the […]

Canadian Giants

Canadian Giants

Canada. Majestic landscape, hockey, and as any New Yorker knows, (but doesn’t care to admit) the better side of Niagara Falls. And now as Vancouver plays host to the 2010 Winter Olympics, nightly we all learn more. As a frequent traveler to the ‘Great White North’ I can offer advice on Canada, but I wonder […]

Sunset Sunday – The Greek Isle of Paxos

Sunset Sunday – The Greek Isle of Paxos

The sunset seduces. Few moments of the day hold such magic. On Valentine’s Day many people will share that magic, that romance, with someone special. One evening, that special sensation hit me harder than my second glass of Ouzo. Here, on the cliffs overlooking the Ionian Sea, I watched the sun descend from the island […]
