Dominican Republic – The Resort {Casa Marina Beach & Reef Resort}

I've been quite busy since March and the whole COVID-19 thing, so I haven't had a chance to post about my trip, back in January, to the Dominican Republic. So, now I've FINALLY gotten around to it. At the beginning of December some excellent deals for travel came up, so of course my mom and …

Las Vegas – Summer 2019

Obviously I am behind on my posts, but I finally got around to posting about my trip with my best friend, Autumn, this past August. DAY ONE We arrived on Monday evening. The bus that drove to the hotel was quite the ride as our driver was quite the daredevil. Checking in at CircusCircus took …

Vancouver Island

We flew into Victoria and drove to Parksville, which was our home base. We did a lot of shorter hikes to waterfalls, caves, etc. Day One Day one we stopped at Pipers Lagoon Park for a short walk. It was raining quite a bit and was cold, but it was still quite beautiful. Day Two …

CUBA! {PART FOUR – CORAL BEACH}

The Beach (taken with our GoPro) On the last day of our trip we went snorkelling at Coral Beach. We had to hire a cab to drive us there as it was not close to our hotel. It was an interesting experience and definitely not like any snorkelling experience I had had before. We hired …

CUBA! {PART THREE – HAVANA}

On the Tuesday, after our Seatour, we headed out from our hotel to a private tour to Havana. The tour was quite affordable considering it was a full day and it was private, which meant we did not have to fight through a group of people to hear what we were being told.  THE CAR …

CUBA! {PART ONE – THE RESORT}

From February 8-15, 2019 I had the pleasure of going to Cuba! I LOVED it! You do not go to Cuba to shop, to eat at super fancy restaurants, or to stay at 5-star resorts. Then, why do you go to Cuba? You go to Cuba for the beautiful scenery, the beaches, the old cars, …

Days 8, 9, & 10 Arizona Trip: Relaxation and Goldfield

Sorry I've been so behind on blogging, but finally this is my FINAL post for Arizona! Two of my last three days were pretty low key spent relaxing after all of our travel through the state. For our last day I wanted to visit a Ghost Town. Last time, my mom and I came we …

Day 7 Part (3/3) Arizona Trip: Sedona

On the last leg of day 7 we drove from Walnut Canyon to Sedona, in a HUGE rainstorm I might add (and I thought driving in winter was scary….). Next time I go to Arizona, I would love to spend more time in the Sedona area, it was so different looking from Phoenix and the …

Day 7 Part (2/3) Arizona Trip: Walnut Canyon

I am still working to get caught up on my trip to Arizona, but I will get it done (I promise!). On August 30 I went to Lake O’Hara, so stayed tuned for that blog post. I found out about Walnut Canyon while searching for more places in Arizona that were like Montezuma Castle and …

Day 6 & Day 7 Part (1/3) Arizona Trip: Rest & Meteor Crater

For day 6 we planned to do nothing. We were exhausted from the previous two days, so we slept in, did some laundry, and went to Golden Corral for dinner. Then, the next day we went on another whirlwind adventure. We woke up really early and went to the Meteor Crater, Walnut Canyon, and Sedona. …

Day 5 (Part 3/3) Arizona Trip: Antelope Canyon Water Tour & Back to Phoenix

After our first tour we went for lunch at the Jack in the Box. Then we headed to the Marina for our second tour. The second tour was much more laid back as there was more room to do stuff. This tour took us out onto Lake Powell and then through Antelope Canyon on the …

Day 5 (part 1/3) Arizona Trip: Glen Canyon Dam

For day 5 of my trip I will be posting in three parts since the post is quite long and I have lots of pictures from it. Initially, we planned to go to Horseshoe Bend.We had all of our water, hiking sandals, sunscreen, hats, etc., but when we got there was a sign at the …
