by on August 24, 2014 in Sunset Sunday

We left the dinner table at Cafe 1500 and headed to the rooftop of the newest residential address in Harrisburg. We took the elevators to the top floor to watch the Harrisburg sunset from atop 1500 Condominium. The views in every direction impressed. Views downtown of the State Capitol, views of the winding Susquehanna River, […]

The hotel manager of Xixim Hotel started walking down the beach towards me as the sun was setting over the Gulf of Mexico. He advised me to capture the Yucatan sunset from the rooftop of the building by the pool. Apparently it held the best view. Honestly, I was content watching it among the countless […]

I was on my way to Congressional, a country club founded by five US Presidents. The invitation was to attend a wedding, not play eighteen, but that wouldn’t stop me from taking a look at the golf course. I decided to walk a few holes of the course and then with the cocktail hour finishing […]

Walking Along the Niagara Falls

Walking Along the Niagara Falls

by on July 31, 2014 in Destination

One of the most remarkable aspects to Niagara Falls remains its accessibility. To simply walk along side the Niagara River and view the majestic waterfalls.  And view it for free. There is no long hike and it’s not in an exotic land (not for us Americans, although I do recommend crossing into Canada) either. It […]

I boarded the ms Westerdam in Seattle’s harbor on a most beautiful afternoon. The crystal clear blue sky along with the glistening water of the Puget Sound made for a perfect setting to set sail.
