Florida’s Best Beach Town – Clearwater, FL and a Day at the Super Boat Races
It was my first trip to the gulf coast of Florida. The plane landed in Tampa Bay just 30 minutes from Clearwater and my first National Super Boat Championship.

A Beach with History, the Petroglyphs of Las Labradas
Las Labradas translates to “the carvings.” And the beach just north of Mazatlan is filled with carvings on its coastal rocks. Travelers don’t come here to swim or soak in the sun, but rather to take a look at the numerous and mysterious petroglyphs. Known to locals for hundreds of years, the engraved rocks have […]
Getting Photographed in my Kilt on the beach, Isle of Arran, Scotland
