One of our favorite parts of our trip was swimming with the dolphins on Isla Mujeres, an island that we reached via ferry. I’ve uploaded a video of our time with the dolphins. These are snippets from a longer video that we purchased.
I’ve uploaded the first video from our honeymoon. This is video of our visit to Tulum, a pre-Columbian Mayan city (now ruins). The ruins were quite remarkable, and the view from the cliffs overlooking the ocean was spectacular. The one bad part of the day was that it was very hot, and we were worn [...]
I’ve uploaded more honeymoon photos - more photos from the resort, and photos from our day on Isla Mujeres, where we swam with the dolphins and manatees. You’ll be able to tell from the photos how much fun it was.
After visiting Tulum, our next stop was Xel Ha. The best way I can think to describe Xel Ha is that it is a nature sancturary and water park (salt water) wrapped up in one. You could snorkel or swim amongs all sorts of colorful fish, explore the trails and caves, swim with dolphins, or [...]
We have a couple of excursions planned for the week. For the first one, we visited Tulum, site of ruins of a small Mayan city. It was a sweltering hot day, but it was interesting to see the ruins and imagine what life must have been like in the area centuries ago. The view was [...]
Elizabeth and I arrived in the Riviera Maya, in Mexico, on Monday afternoon. We are staying at the Iberostar Grand Hotel Paraiso, which is very nice. It is all inclusive, with 5 restaurants, a few pools, and people that go out of their way to help. We’ve had fun trying out a few of the [...]
I’ve posted the video I shot of the Golden Gate Bridge. Matt, Brooke, and I stopped at an observation point on our way out of San Francisco, and towards Squaw Valley, on May 10, 2008. It was so windy that not only is the audio worthless (I’ve dubbed over it with music), but also it [...]
I’ve posted two videos from the California trip that Matt, Brooke, and I took. One is of Squaw Valley, and the other is of our drive around Lake Tahoe. The camcorder’s onboard mic picked up lots of wind, and not much in the way of voices. I’m almost at my weekly upload limit with the [...]
Yesterday, with all the ski areas in the region now closed for the season, Matt, Brooke, and I drove the 72 mile loop around Lake Tahoe. Wow. What a remarkable drive. It was a scenic drive, and there were a few white knuckle parts as well. In one area, after several hairpin turns, the road [...]
Matt, Brooke, and I drove up to Squaw Valley from San Francisco yesterday. We skied today, on Squaw’s last day of the season. It was sunny and warm, and a nice way to cap off the season. It was a great day, but tiring. For our last run, we hiked up a ridge line, and [...]
