On the second day in Salta, Natalie and I got out of the city limits to explore higher grounds in the north. The day before we had settled on doing two day trips in the region with a local tour company whose name I cannot remember at the moment, but will have to [...]

Choosing a destination outside of Buenos Aires was difficult once we decided that Patagonia probably wasn’t the best idea. Too little time and my limited budget makes for zero glacier hiking. However, if you ask anyone in country and they’ll tell you almost everything is AMAZING. Of course locals gushed about the expansive beauty [...]

Before I went to Buenos Aires, I had done a little bit of guide book, blog and news reading to better acquaint me with one of South America’s largest cities. The more I read, the more excited and interested I became. This particular article in the New York Post almost lead me to having mixed [...]

Yackety-yack! Here’s a little face time from your’s truly. I’m basically telling you everything you already know, unless you haven’t swung by the blog as of recent. For those having trouble with my new last name this video shall help you with that. Or at least it will give you some examples of how not [...]

My mind and eyes are on several different maps at the moment, so if I seem a bit disoriented these days -ho hum. It’s all part of the organizational process needed to plan these great escapes.
I thought I sort of had trip planning for Argentina all worked out, but I think Nats and I [...]

During the last full day of Hawaiian fun in Kauai, we took the time to explore various small attractions. You could call it that last tourist crawl to cram in all the last goodies before departure day. On our agenda this particular day were [...]

Our 5th day on the island consisted first with a very unexciting move from the wonderful Palmwood Inn to the Marriott Resort in Lihue. Because it really isn’t worth mentioning, I’m going to skip talking about the construction right under our balcony / garden view room and get straight to the good stuff. [...]

Before reaching the Limahuli Garden in Ha’ena, in the northern part of Kaua’i, we caught a glimpse of another beautiful beach and hit the brakes. This day wasn’t intended to be a beach day for us, but we couldn’t pass on spending at least 10 minutes at Tunnels. After we’d had our fill [...]

The Palmwood Inn as seen around the road on our Easter morning walk.
There are only two notable things that took place on Easter Sunday during our stay in Kaua’i. (Possibly more, but I’m just not going to note them.) Because we expected Easter to be a bit quieter we kept our schedule to chill time [...]
