Cancun, noted for its spring break fiesta feel and famed nightlife now has another option for those seeking a great evening out on the town. A night inclusive of dinner, dancing and drinking coupled with the opportunity to learn about the culture and history of Mexico. Yes, a night at Xoximilco, a theme park in […]
Sunset Sunday-The Central Andes of Argentina
Los Penitentes, in the central Argentine Andes, bustles in the winter ski season and is a popular summer hiking destination. But the rest of the year it’s a hermits dream with utter peace and palpable silence. It can be the perfect place to capture the energy and amazement of a picturesque sunset. The image, an […]
Sunset Sunday-A Civil (War) Sunset from Gettysburg, PA
I always wanted to visit the Civil War site at Gettysburg. The National Park Service’s Military Park located in southern Pennsylvania is constantly a topic of conversation in my family, but I never stepped foot on its soil until recently.

Sunset Sunday-Ipanema Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
I met Jerome in Mexico when we both attended Carnaval in Mazatlan. We hit it off and discussed future travels including a trip to Rio de Janeiro for Carnaval one year and since Jerome is a Carioca at heart I asked him to share a sunset moment from his time in Rio on Sunset Sunday. […]
