We had a lovely anniversary weekend at our cozy cabin in the Georgia mountains, but it was time to head north to the Great Smoky Mountains. We were super excited to camp for the next 4 days in the national park, and had a jam packed itinerary. It included hiking to waterfalls, driving through Cades […]
Nisheet and I were supposed to spend our anniversary this year on an Alaskan cruise. I spent hours researching the trip, and we booked almost a year in advance. And then the pandemic happened. Sound familiar? Yep. This was the second year in a row that our Royal Caribbean cruise was cancelled because of Mother […]
With half a day left to explore Los Angeles before the final night of wedding festivities, we headed for the downtown. We had been to Venice Beach, Malibu, and the Griffith Observatory, but we couldn’t say we explored the LA area without visiting LA itself. Being that LA is 2nd most populous city in the […]
The next day, we had a wedding event in the morning, and then the plan was to go to the Griffith Observatory for sunset. The wedding was beautiful and nothing like I’d ever experienced before. It was the first Sikh wedding I had ever attended. It started with the groom coming up the road in […]
On our second day in LA, we didn’t have any wedding events to attend. That meant we had the entire day to explore. Wohoo! We planned to spend the day driving along the pacific coast hwy and checking out some beaches in the Malibu area. However, there was something we needed to do first. The […]
This blog post is way way overdue. Like 5 months overdue. Last October, Nisheet and I took a trip to Los Angeles for a dear friend’s wedding. And, of course, we took several side trips to check out the surrounding area. Due to work and other variables, Nisheet and I flew in separately. He flew […]
One of the reasons I was determined to take a cruise at this particular time was so we could celebrate our 1st anniversary on the cruise. And the last day of the cruise happened to be our actual anniversary. This was going to be a jam packed day of activities. I wanted our day to […]
The Amazing Secret River or Rio Secreto at Playa Del Carmen. Pristine turquoise blue water inside 2.5 million year old cave filled with beautiful stalagmites and stalactites.
The next stop on our cruise was Roatan which is an island off of Honduras. This was a new port for me. The last time I was on a cruise that was supposed to go here, we ran into high winds and couldn’t dock. So, I was super excited to check out this new port […]
Our first port on the Carnival Miracle was Grand Cayman. I couldn’t say that I was very excited about this stop. When I picked out our original cruise, I purposely chose an itinerary that did not stop at Grand Cayman. I’ve been on 2 cruises that have stopped here before, and I’ve never been a […]
