Simple directions state, “Take the coastal road south from downtown Puerto Vallarta until it ends and then board a water taxi.” To come Las Majahuitas Resort you can’t arrive by car, all guests arrive by boat. The jungle and Sierra Madre Mountains make it only accessible by passage along the Pacific waters. The journey adds […]

Sunset Sunday – Sunset at the Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita
by Craig Zabransky on March 4, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Stay Luxurious, Sunset Sunday
My flight landed just after 1pm in Puerto Vallarta and I decided to rent a jeep from Avis to drive the coastal road north to Riviera Nayarit. Just before 3pm I arrived at my first destination – The Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita. On the nine-night adventure I started with my first on the right […]

Sunset Sunday – Sunset on a Rooftop in Flores, Guatemala
by Craig Zabransky on February 26, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
I grabbed a few bottles of the local beer Gallo, and a bag of crisps (potato chips) and headed back to my room. I decided to take in the sunset on the hotel rooftop. I selected the hotel when I learned about it’s rooftop and the stairs (no elevator) to the third floor were not a […]

Sunset Sunday – Sunset in Tikal, Guatemala
by Craig Zabransky on February 19, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
Walking through the Mayan ruins in the afternoon, after my morning tour, I needed to decide where to settle in to watch a sunset. At first I returned to the gran plaza and then debated a return to the lost world (Mundo Perdido) all in the quest to find the perfect sunset inside the Mayan […]

Sunset Sunday – Winter Sunset in Lake Wallenpaupack, PA
by Craig Zabransky on February 12, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
I spend time in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. The spring bloom, the summer storms, the autumn colors and the winter snows, provide a chance to experience nature all year. With Manhattan as my home, the less than three hour bus ride makes for a perfect escape any season. In the colds of January, the […]

Sunset Sunday – Sunset in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC
by Craig Zabransky on January 29, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
The sun sets in the west. In New York City that means it sets in the dense suburbs of New Jersey. Couple that with tall buildings, crowded streets, and the frantic end of day commute and the city doesn’t offer an idyllic setting to capture a sunset. But as you learned through the sunsets stories […]

Sunset Sunday – A Mile High Sunset
by Craig Zabransky on January 15, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
Window or aisle seat? Before the days of self check-in and kiosks, the agent might ask you, “Sir, would you like a window or aisle seat?” My answer than was the same as it is today – the window. I always ask for the window. Always. Why? I need to see the horizon. I love to gaze […]

Sunset Sunday – A Sunset in Mazatlán with Smiley
by Craig Zabransky on January 8, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
Two of us boarded the bus for the afternoon tour with our driver. Yet just before we exited the hotel gate, the other passenger changed his mind and exited the vehicle for an afternoon poolside. He left me on a personal tour with a jolly man nicknamed “Smiley.” I decided to switch from conversing in […]
