We had a relaxing morning for our first full day in Italy. We slept in and then had a leisurely breakfast of fresh croissants and espresso on our balcony while taking in the view of the sea and town. This was what I dreamed of before coming here. The cool fresh breeze. The gentle ocean […]
We finally did it! We got married! Well, actually, we got married back in September, but I am just now finding time to sit down and write about it. The wedding story (and loads of pictures) will come later in a different blog post. For now, I’m going to jump right into our Cinque Terre […]
Day 3 – Cartagena to Medellin After completing two very full days in Cartagena, we were pretty excited to be flying to a new city. With the two other friends of ours flying back home early in the day, it was my friend Kevin and I that were left to continue on with the journey to […]
Day 2 – Sweets and Rain The goal of day 2 was to explore Cartagena’s main attraction, the historic old town. The old city is the crown jewel of Cartagena, and it is surrounded by city walls topped with cannons. Pastry shops, street vendors, restaurants, and colonial homes, line the streets, and the Caribbean charm […]
A Day at Disney World Animal Kingdom Warning: This post is very delayed. Like months delayed. I forgot to publish it. Oops! Disney World Animal Kingdom. We finally made it to all of the Disney World parks this year! It was again a crowded day. Even more crowded than we expected because Avatar was having a […]
Why Colombia? A couple of years ago, my friend Kevin and I made a pact that if he ever quit work to get his MBA, we would go on a cool trip somewhere before he gets schooled. Well, surprisingly, Kevin did quit work, so the time came to pick a place for an adventure. With a […]
Heading to Kolob Canyons: We had one more day in Zion before heading to Las Vegas in the evening, so we decided to spend it in the lesser traveled section of Kolob Canyons. Kolob Canyons is still part of Zion National Park, but to get there from the main area, you have to exit the […]
Zion Shuttle Today was our big day in Zion National Park. We were going to do the big attractions including Angels Landing and part of the Narrows. So, we woke up bright and early and super pumped to start the day. We ate a quick and hearty breakfast at our campsite and then packed everything […]
Sunrise at Bryce Canyon National Park It’s funny. When we are at home, I’m (almost) always the first one out of bed. Nisheet is not a morning person. But, when we are on vacation, the roles are reversed. Nisheet has to drag me out of bed. And sometimes there is just no hope. That was […]
Hiking in Bryce Canyon National Park: We knew we wanted to go hiking on our full day in Bryce Canyon, so I diligently researched all the hiking trails beforehand. I had it planned out. We were going to do the strenuous 8-mile Fairyland loop. It is less traveled, and the views are supposed to be […]
