Sunset Sunday – Tauranga, North Island, New Zealand

Sunset Sunday – Tauranga, North Island, New Zealand

by on May 22, 2011 in Guest Post, Sunset Sunday

To mark three months since the earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand and two months since the highly successful Blog4NZ effort I decided have Sunset Sunday return to New Zealand once again. My first one, in March, was Lake Waikaremoana, New Zealand during the Blog for New Zealand effort. And again, just as in the first […]

Sunset Sunday – Beech Mountain, Pocono Mountains, PA

by on May 15, 2011 in Sunset Sunday

As summer approaches, the days are getting longer and for many of us living up north look forward to the later sunset. This often translates to more, rest, more leisure, and more time for an afternoon cocktail.

One place I enjoy many of these longer, warmer, days are the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania.

Sunset Sunday – Miami Baptist Hospital

by on May 9, 2011 in Reflection, Sunset Sunday

Last Mother’s Day Sunset Sunday I published prose a daughter wrote for her mother. A tribute. This year, again, I want to share a special moment. This time it’s one of mine. On March 4th I didn’t sleep a wink. Actually, I didn’t sleep again till the afternoon of March 5th – thirty-six hours plus. […]

Sunset Sunday – The Westin, Cape Town, South Africa

Sunset Sunday – The Westin, Cape Town, South Africa

by on May 1, 2011 in Sunset Sunday

During the World Cup, I spent a few nights in Cape Town. The $15 USD dorm rate at local hostels suddenly changed and the rates skyrocketed to nearly $50 (even more at some places) so I decided to take action. I checked in to the Westin, an SPG property that provided a pay and points […]

Sunset Sunday – Swakopmund, Namibia

Sunset Sunday – Swakopmund, Namibia

by on April 17, 2011 in Sunset Sunday

Namibia claims to be the second least populated country in the world. It ranks behind Mongolia (tops on my bucket list for travel). The place can feel empty. Very empty at times. And not just in the desert. After the journey on the road from Sossusvlei to Swakopmund, we found out just how empty. The […]

Sunset Sunday – Blue Train, South Africa

by on April 10, 2011 in Stay Luxurious, Sunset Sunday

In Africa, I dreamed of safari, sunsets, soccer (World Cup) and deep discovery into my soul. I found it all and more. But one surprise for me, and my Stay Luxurious side was passage on South Africa’s Blue Train from Pretoria to Cape Town. The invitation, experience, and twenty-eight elegant hours I received, remain one […]

Sunset Sunday – Savannah, Georgia

Sunset Sunday – Savannah, Georgia

by on April 3, 2011 in Sunset Sunday

Last April, I discovered a true southern gem. I visited Savannah, Georgia.  I spent a few days exploring the colonial city filled with American history, haunted tales, and southern hospitality. The walkable streets and city squares set a slower speed as trees covered with Spanish moss set a mood of mystery and intrigue.  There is […]

Sunset Sunday – Estrella del Mar, Mazatlán

Sunset Sunday – Estrella del Mar, Mazatlán

by on March 27, 2011 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday

After a few hours relaxing in the sun, I received a phone call poolside. It felt like a 1960s film as the attendant asked, “Sir, are you Craig Zabransky?” and then upon my acknowledgement they told me, “You have a phone call.” Apparently, they’d tried my room a few times, but with perfect weather and […]
