Thanks for visiting!
- May 29, 2024I wasn't surprised when I woke up this morning and it was only 6:45. It felt like I had slept a long time, but in reality it was less than 6 hours. Dumb jet lag. Tom was up shortly after me and we got ready to tackle the day. We…
- May 28, 2024Over the past couple of years Tom has been watching a ton of videos and researching Portugal. He has fallen in love with this country before he has even stepped foot in it so when we were deciding where we should go to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary, Portugal seemed…
- April 27, 2024I actually set an alarm this morning because I didn't want to miss one last opportunity to walk the beach. I woke Erica up at 6:45 (Amanda told me the night before she was going to choose sleep over beach). We got out the door by 7:00 and headed to…
- April 26, 2024It was nice to sleep in a little bit this morning as I didn't wake up until 8:30. We left the house about 10:30 and I dropped Amanda and Erica off at the place they like to get coffee and blueberry muffins. I proceeded to go snag the geocache near…
- April 25, 2024Today was an early start as we needed to be to the marina (the same spot we went to catch the ferry to North Caicos) for 8:15 for our kayaking tour. We found where we needed to be and discovered the tour was just going to consist of us and…
- April 24, 2024Erica had a meeting this morning, so we took our time getting ready and lounged around. I did spot a bird down by the pool and was able to use the Picture Bird App I accidentally acquired in Panama to identify the Yellow Crowned Night Heron. We got out the…
- April 23, 2024We were up and out the door by 8:50. Everything on the island seems to be about 10-15 minutes away so we were by the ferry by 9:05. By 9:20 we were sitting on the ferry waiting for departure at 9:30. The ride over to North Caicos was the smoothest…
- April 22, 2024I was up slightly before my alarm this morning and got going right away. When Amanda got up we learned she had been sick during the night and still wasn't feeling the greatest. She was unsure if she would be able to dive. Erica and I suggested she try to…
- April 21, 2024We didn't set alarms this morning and took our time getting moving. Erica was up first and set out to explore the surrounding area. She was excited that that she spotted 3 turtles in the canal. When I got up she was already gone and Amanda was still sleeping, so…
- April 20, 2024It's been 4 1/2 years since the last time Erica, Amanda, and I last took a girl's trip. While Amanda was home in January for my retirement celebration we decided that it had been too long, and started planning another. We tossed around several location ideas but eventually landed on…
- March 7, 2024Today is a travel day back home. I slept in a little bit and had my final bowl of Generic Coco Krispies while sitting on the balcony. It was then time to pack up. Thankfully there was a scale at this AirBnB and I discovered my check bag might be…
- March 6, 2024Last full day in Panama. I can't hardly believe it. This past month has gone by so fast. I slept in and didn't get moving until after 9:00. We didn't have any big plans for our last day. As we traveled through the country we noticed a store called "I…
