On my recent visit through the Riviera Maya, good fortune enabled me to stay at two separate Dreams Resorts. Yes, I was certainly “living the dream”. On both properties I enjoyed spending time poolside, but when heading to the Mexico’s Riviera Maya, a trip to the beach is a must. Dreams Tulum Beach Just a […]

Sunset Sunday, Seattle’s Space Needle at Sunset
by Craig Zabransky on January 18, 2015 in Sunset Sunday
During this past summer before boarding the ms Westerdam for a cruise to Alaska on Holland America, I spent time in Seattle.

Exploring the Beauty of Crete, Greece
by Craig Zabransky on December 29, 2014 in Destination
I recommend visiting the Greek Islands by sea, sailing them. And when exploring the beauty of Crete plenty of sailing opportunities exist, but I learned it would take you the better part of a week to sail around Crete itself. It’s big. Crete, Greece’s Big Island Crete is the biggest Greek Island and 5th largest […]

Sunset Sunday – The View from the Copper Canyon at Sunset
by Craig Zabransky on November 11, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
Simply stated, the views of Copper Canyon (and all the canyons) amaze. Standing at the edge and looking out over the vast landscapes in complete wonder is another part of the magic of Mexico. And as a fan of the sunset, I knew I needed to capture the view. Thankfully, I did. We exited Chihuahua […]
