Sunset Sunday – Sossusvlei Lodge, Namibia

Sunset Sunday – Sossusvlei Lodge, Namibia

Before the tour took the journey from Sossusvlei to Swakopmund across the desert and barren landscape of Namibia, we stayed at the Sossusvlei Lodge. Just a few kilometers from the entrance to the famous and impressive sand dunes of Sossusvlei the group settled in for the first of two nights. The looming tour of the […]

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

Sunset Sunday – The Green Flash, Laguna Beach, California

The Green Flash. Sunset aficionados know about it. Some don’t believe it exists, some quest for it like a crusade for the holy grail, and others, the fortunate few, can claim witness to its majesty. I’ll admit I remained semi-skeptical until that day.  The day when walking along beach and watching the sun dip into […]

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

Sunset Sunday – the Brilliance of Baja, Pescadero, Mexico

I arrived early enough to order a Margarita at the bar. After a self guided tour of Todo Santos I stopped back to Hotel California to relax, and eventually call for a taxi. Inside Jack Johnson tunes took over for the Eagles soundtrack and I noticed the lunchtime crowd cleared, a positive indication that the […]

This Sunday the sun sets for the last time at the World Cup tournament. Tonight a new champion will be crowned as Spain squares off with Holland.

Sunset Sunday – Puerto Escondido

Sunset Sunday – Puerto Escondido

Simply known as Puerto. The sleepy fishing village in Oaxaca, Mexico also claims home to the Mexican Pipeline. A perfect pacific Mexican escape. I enjoyeda long weekend on the coastal beach town of “Puerto” when I called Mexico City my home.  And although I prefer the Mazatlan native “el Pacifico,” I can hardly disagree that the […]

Sunset Sunday – Oxford, England (season2)

Sunset Sunday – Oxford, England (season2)

This past April my grade school best friend provided me a stunning tour of Oxford University. He studies there to complete his Masters in Archeology. On the walkabout town, he pointed out so many points of interest. Places of historical significance, literary hangouts, and even Harry Potter film sites. On the tour, one could really feel […]

Sunset Sunday – Happy Mother’s Day

Sunset Sunday – Happy Mother’s Day

The sunset holds magic and memories. Many times I am fortunate enough to share that magic and memories with my Mom. And many of those occur when I visit the Florida Keys. My most recent trip to the Florida Keys, however, I learned that a member of the community had passed away.  My parents knowing […]
