Sunset Sunday: Fly to Mexico for Winter
Posted on January 22, 2012 | 1 CommentThe only good thing about a flight delay is the incredible sunset you get to see from up in the air. Yesterday, we boarded a flight to Cancun, Mexico.

Posted on January 12, 2012 | 11 CommentsThere is something about a tourist attraction that both excites me and makes me cringe. Most times, of course, I want to see the attraction too- I’ve either read about it in history books, like when we went to the Colosseum in Rome, or lesser known ones I’ve read about it in a travel book or blog, like Gastown’s steam clock in Vancouver, to see for myself what all the...
