It started to rain heavier as I made my way to the beached boat. It wasn’t promising. The chances for a Adirondack Sunset from Long Lake (14 miles in length) didn’t seem very possible. But if there is one thing I learned from the few days on my recent adventures across the Adirondacks was that […]

by Craig Zabransky on August 10, 2015 in Destination, Events
My adventures shall take me “South of the Border” once again. Well this time, it’s different, and it’s a chance to further explore my native state of New York and the Adirondack Mountains. Northern New York State My flights landed in Montreal, where I enjoyed 24-hours of French Cosmopolitan Canada before heading back “South of […]
A Daytona Beach Sunset from the Pink Sand Beaches of Florida
by Craig Zabransky on August 2, 2015 in Sunset Sunday
After spending a day exploring historic St Augustine, which included tasting the water from its Fountain of Youth, the plan was only to continue southbound. I never realized I’d “race” to Daytona Beach and catch the sunset on the pink sands of its famous beach. I learned more about stock car racing and Daytona from […]
4 Ways to Enjoy New York
by stayadventurous on July 31, 2015 in Destination, Featured, Guest Post
When discussing travel to New York City, it’s almost impossible to effectively narrow down the attractions and activities that should be on your list. Part of what makes the city so unique among international travel destinations, after all, is it sheer breadth of activity; everywhere you turn there’s an iconic landmark, a must-see show or […]

by Craig Zabransky on July 30, 2015 in Podcast Show Notes
I love alliterations and couldn’t resist ‘Handsome” for the Harrisburg Podcast episode. Well don’t give me credit, Teddy Roosevelt used the word “handsome” first in the city, when he dedicated the new capitol in 1906. He essentially decreed and his words now appear on a tile inscribed inside the building itself. “This is the handsomest […]
The Surprising Skyline Sunset of London from Charlton
by Craig Zabransky on July 26, 2015 in Sunset Sunday
A skyline at sunset is often one of the best you images possible of a city, but I never considered a skyline sunset of London a real possibility until after my time in Charlton. In some cities, the skyline sunset is a must. I can’t recommend walking the Brooklyn Bridge in New York at sunset […]
The Shenandoah Skyline Sunset
by Craig Zabransky on July 12, 2015 in National Park Travel, Sunset Sunday
The Shenandoah Skyline is inside an American National Park. I discovered it is a must see and drive. I also discovered another sunset that called my name. Perhaps as a New Yorker it was the skyline, or maybe the fact that I am “road tripping” America and needed to stop to see the splendor of […]
The Real Africa, #TheAfricaTheMediaNeverShowsYou
by Craig Zabransky on July 7, 2015 in Destination, Guest Post
Travel teaches. You learn on the road through your experience, especially when you keep the right mindset. Travel shows you the different side of a place you thought you knew. And travel to Africa really opened my eyes to the continent. Now, the hashtag #TheAfricaTheMediaNeverShowsYou is trending on Twitter for good reason. The view of […]
