This trip, the weekend at the Lodge at Woodloch located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, was different. I expected such as it was my first time traveling again since the pandemic altered the travel landscape. What wasn’t different on this trip was missing the sunset at the lake. I missed it again. In prior […]

Sunrise Sunday – A New Day, Viking Ships “Return” to the Americas
by Craig Zabransky on November 6, 2016 in Cruise Travel, Sunset Sunday
Viking Ships are back in America. Yes, Viking Cruises have positioned one of their ocean liners in the Americas. The relatively new Viking Star (christened in 2015) is taking up residency in the Caribbean. The cruise company that transformed the river cruise industry is now venturing into the ocean liner market with a release of […]

Sunrise in a Hammock at the Palm at Playa del Carmen
by Craig Zabransky on January 31, 2016 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
I decided to remain poolside and order another cocktail, I wanted to wait till the sun set to capture the golden hour’s light and the views from the rooftop at the Palm at Playa. After an incredible social afternoon including a live #Mexchat and before a delicious dinner at Plank, I just wanted to relax […]

Catching the Sunrise with Hippos in Burkina Faso
by stayadventurous on May 31, 2015 in Guest Post, Sunset Sunday
It was still dark when I left my hotel in Banfora to head to Lake Tengrela in western Burkina Faso. The goal was to set sail on the lake in a wooden canoe before the sun came up to try to spot a hippopotamus or two. While we floated along in the rickety canoe, I […]

Sunset Sunday – A Tulum Sunrise for the New Era in the Mayan World
by Craig Zabransky on December 23, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
The sun rose on December 21st; the world didn’t end. Some feared the end with the “end” of the Mayan Calendar in 2012, but others welcomed it as a new era began. So to celebrate, honor, and welcome this shift in time, I wanted to share a rare (for me) sunrise (instead of a sunset) […]

The Morning March to the Tikal Temple Sunrise
by Craig Zabransky on May 29, 2012 in Destination
I used the light from my camera, peeled off 100 Quetzales and handed it over. He told me, “cien por persona.” He must have thought we were together. We weren’t. She paid her hundred and he continued to collect from the six or eight other people joining us. It was too dark to get an […]

A Test with an Apple
by Craig Zabransky on April 25, 2010 in Reflection
A test. We all receive them. My most recent came this past week. I returned from my travels to the confirmation I feared. My hard drive was corrupt; data unsalvageable. Yes, I back up occasionally, but my most recent drafts, chapters and some photographs would be lost. Not easy to swallow. Then I tried to […]
