Recently I was asked the very difficult question, “What was your most memorable trip?” Too difficult to select just one, my answer is often, “well, it depends,” and then I rattle of a few destinations. But even with a long list of adventures worthy of a video, I needed to give Wanderfly one destination and one […]

Sunset Sunday – The Surf of Rio Nexpa, Mexico
by stayadventurous on September 4, 2011 in Guest Post, Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
I met Adam in Mazatlán. We enjoyed the sun, surf, and seafood in the golden zone, talked about the future of tourism in Mexico, and shared a common appreciation for sunsets. And recently Adam had a memorable sunset moment in Rio Nexpa, Michoacan, Mexico and decided to share it here. I am glad he did. Adam tells […]
Teōtīhuacān – Mexico’s Famous Pyramids
by Craig Zabransky on August 31, 2011 in Destination, Mexico Travel
Tulum. Chichen Itza. Palenque. Coba. When people think of the ancient ruins in Mexico, most think about the Mayan culture (and the Mayan calendar). But, other cultures flourished in Mexico. Many of the ancient ruins from the other great civilizations can also be visited today. And I recommend a visit to the Pyramids of the Sun […]
Surf, Sun, and Seafood in the Golden Zone of Mazatlán
by Craig Zabransky on August 25, 2011 in Beach, Destination, Mexico Travel
Mazatlán can romance you with its Old Town and excite you with its excursions of adventure, but for many it’s simply the surf, sun, and seafood. And Mazatlán’s Golden Zone offers all three. Surf Class in the Golden Zone I always wanted to surf Mazatlán. I road tripped once form Mazatlan to San Blas to surf the waves of Nayarit, […]
Stroll the Streets of Oaxaca
by Craig Zabransky on August 22, 2011 in Destination, Mexico Travel
A stroll or a walk through city streets tells the story. It can speak of the culture and the cuisine. It can provide clues about the past and even point to the future. Yes, the walk allows a visitor to survey the scene and learn about the locals. On my first free day in Oaxaca […]
Sunset Sunday – San Blas, Nayarit, Mexico
by Craig Zabransky on July 31, 2011 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
After two full days in San Blas, I booked the third night. The town still intrigued. And to celebrate I returned to the beach with my pen, journal and some pesos for a cerveza to watch the sunset. I arrived and selected one of the popular talapas and ordered a Pacifico. My mission to watch the […]
Four Ways to Appreciate the Charm of Mayan Ruins at Coba
by Craig Zabransky on July 18, 2011 in Destination, Mexico Travel
The heavy rain arrived and a late breakfast was added to the itinerary after our first stop in Punta Laguna. We stopped just a few miles from the Mayan archaeological site of Coba and waited out the storm. After some eggs and tortilla the rain ceased. We piled back into the van and continued to […]

by Craig Zabransky on July 3, 2011 in Mexico Travel, Reflection, Sunset Sunday
As we enter July for some the year is half over, for others half the year awaits. With that in mind I decided to take a pause and review Sunset Sunday posts to see where we traveled, how it measured up against what I planned, and finally where we need to go in the next […]
