I love watching the sunset because it is a shared human experience. It happens every day, it happens everywhere, and every one of us can enjoy it. Recently, I asked a Venezuelan friend living in Mexico for a sunset image to highlight the beauty inside Venezuela. She responded with a photo and also gave me […]

Sunset Sunday-Cruising to Manta, Ecuador
by Craig Zabransky on February 16, 2014 in Guest Post, Sunset Sunday
“I looked at your map and this will give you a pin in your open space. It’s a sunset from Ecuador captured from aboard a cruise ship in the Manta Harbor.” Yes, it is a most welcome “pin” and a beautiful moment from Ecuador and South America. Thank you Bob. Recently I donated a 2014 […]

Sunset Sunday-Villa Blanca Cloud Forest, Costa Rica
by Craig Zabransky on February 9, 2014 in Sunset Sunday
I arrived mid-afternoon to check in and asked, “What time does the sun set?” Puzzled, the staff of the Villa Blanca Hotel responded with a surprised look. Si (yes) they understood my English. It seemed as if everyone in Costa Rica did (although for the record, I spoke much Spanish). The surprised look was because […]

Sunset Sunday – The New York State Thruway Rest Area Sunset
by Craig Zabransky on January 26, 2014 in Sunset Sunday
When driving great distances, although be it infrequently, I often make a stop around sunset. No surprise, I take in the sunset wherever I can, especially when traveling. Yes, this includes rest stops on a thruway, and isn’t that what we do when we watch a sunset? Don’t we all pause, rest and recharge? I […]

The Sunset Sunday Series completed another successful year. The series, introduced one cold wintery day in 2010, has now become a weekly institution here on Stay Adventurous and continues to grow. When I view all the places photographed and all the special stories involved with the 180+ sunsets in the series, I can do nothing […]

by Craig Zabransky on December 29, 2013 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
Every Friday at the St. Regis Resort in Punta Mita the sunset is celebrated in style. Out come bottles of champagne to the lobby with a gentleman holding a long sharp saber. The Sabrage, the technique of slicing a bottle open with a saber (a special sword), is performed for all the guests to watch […]

Sunset Sunday-An Osa Peninsula Sunset in Costa Rica
by Craig Zabransky on December 22, 2013 in Sunset Sunday
I headed back to the main pavilion again on my second night to watch another Costa Rican sunset on the Osa Peninsula. With no rain this evening, I was not alone. Most of the guests of El Remanso Lodge were there with either a cup of delicious Costa Rican coffee or celebratory cocktails. We all […]
