We were lucky enough to spend the winter in Mexico, enjoying four and a half months in Cabo San Lucas after a wonderful road trip to get to Baja California Sur.

We were fortunate this week to have friends visit and offer to make us fresh ceviche. This is a traditional dish made with raw fish and fresh produce.

Our recent trip to Switzerland, Germany and France provided plenty... Continue Reading →

It's situated on a hill overlooking Paris, and worth the trip for the view itself. But there's more there than the view. The church is... Continue Reading →
One of the highlights of our visit to Paris happened by accident. On our last evening, I wanted to witness the “City of Lights,” as Paris is known. I had a couple of ideas, and it was through researching these that I found the final destination of our vacation. It was a great one.... Continue Reading →
