Polaroid

Since we’ve started traveling full-time in 2010, we ran into a hurricane every year – first Matthew in Belize, then Irene in Washington last year, and this year Ernesto in Mexico…

This week’s Polaroid is about the Batu Caves outside of Kuala Lumpur which are home to a series of limestone caves, Hindu shrines, dozens of adorable monkeys and the upcoming Thaipusam festival!

This week I returned to Niagara Falls for my second visit! After experiencing the Canadian side in 2011, I now got to soak up the feel of the American side (and got completely drenched!)

Last week I went to Santa Rosa in Northern California, a trip that did not only bring me to a bunch of wineries, but also to the Redwoods, the world’s tallest trees!

We fell head over heels in love with Cuzco, especially with the gorgeous San Blas neighborhood with its narrow, steep and winding street and colonial houses.

I’ve arrived in Colombia – in Cartagena, to be precise, a city I’ve been dreaming of visiting for years. My start to my 4th round of Latin America travels was off to a great start…

From hot & sweaty Cartagena, I traveled up the coast to some of Colombia’s famous Caribbean beaches – and I was not disappointed, despite a scary incident…

My highlight of this past week was a road trip down the Pacific Coast Highway into Orange County. One of the best stops along the way? Huntington Beach!

My highlight of the week was the hike up to the Hollywood Sign, which I’d been wanting to do for a while. With blue skies and a gorgeous sunset, I couldn’t have chosen a better day!

I’ve arrived in Mexico – funny how life sometimes goes… I didn’t plan on visiting Mexico this year at all, and yet this is my 2nd time here in 2016…
