Lombok, the island east of Bali in the Indonesia island chain offers pristine beaches and few crowds. Tourism is growing on the island, but it is often to compared to Bali from the 1920s – a paradise (and not yet developed). Sire Beach, one of the beaches on the western side offers just a few […]
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 […]
Sunset Sunday – Jaco, Costa Rica
by Craig Zabransky on July 24, 2011 in Sunset Sunday
Looking back, the sunset seems to have always been a special part of my travels. From my childhood to my first solo trips, I can recall many sunsets. But it was after Costa Rica, the first destination on my travel sabbatical, when my simple love for the sunset grew to a passion. With most of […]
Sunset Sunday – Muncy, PA
by Craig Zabransky on July 17, 2011 in Sunset Sunday
Some places seem alive. Certain destinations are filled with an energy, like New York, while other places are filled with life. No, not just the human population, but all life and those places tend to exist in nature. One such place was the Creekview Country Cottage Bed & Breakfast in Muncy, Pennsylvania. Just off interstate 180, a […]

by Craig Zabransky on July 10, 2011 in Sunset Sunday
Sometimes I search out the sunset. I plan my day around the moment. I find it’s well worth it every time. Other times, well the sunset finds me. It finds us all. We can be at an event or perhaps just living life and “wa-la” the sunset causes us to pause. We watch it. We enjoy […]
The 2011 Sunset Sunday Midpoint Review
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 […]
Sunset Sunday – 4th of July on the Hudson River, New York
by Craig Zabransky on June 26, 2011 in Sunset Sunday
Last year, with the 4th of July fireworks on the Hudson River (and not the East River), spectators watched two shows. Not only did they get a chance to see one of the largest firework displays in the country, but they also had a chance to see a sunset. For the prized view, you needed […]
Sunset Sunday – Islamorada, Florida Keys
by Craig Zabransky on June 19, 2011 in Sunset Sunday
A slight breeze kept the mosquitoes away while the temperature dropped just a few degrees from its midday high. The idyllic climate matched the setting as I settled in for the sunset at Pierre’s in Islamorada. The bartender arrived with our cocktails and placed my manhattan on the table. As I reached for my first […]
