All in Fly

That One Sunny Day in Krabi

It's the tail end of February in the Pacific Northwest. Just like clockwork, I am finding myself totally over with this cold, rainy, and gray situation. I am longing for warm, sunny days  preferably spent on a beach somewhere in the tropics. A girl can wish ... all day, every day.

For a temporary cure, I have dug out from my digital box of memories some photos that I have never shared before (not even on Facebook because I have my reasons) from that one beautiful day Stuart and I spent island hopping in the Andaman Sea.

A Christmas Tree of Stories

 For us, our Christmas tree is a collection of stories; the ornaments are pockets of memories and representations of special moments from our adventures and experiences. Because of our wandering ways, the landscape of stories that is our tree keeps changing every year. And we would not have it any other way. 

Love in Photographs

We decided to have a fun photoshoot in Vienna to remember our incredible trip by.  Because we are not the selfie types, we usually have very few photos of us together during our travels. After this year's health challenges and recently celebrating 10 years of marriage, this trip is a gift and a blessing, so we enlisted a professional to capture us enjoying what we love -- each other and traveling together!

 Here are 6 (out of 60!)of our favorite shots taken by Natascha with Flytographer.

California's Hwy 1: Santa Cruz to Pescadero

During our visit last weekend, our aunts decided to take us on a drive to a charming town they love called Pescadero. Stuart and I have driven down California's scenic coastal highway from San Francisco to Santa Cruz before, but there was so much fog that we could only see as far as a few meters out. This time we were blessed with clear and sunny weather.

Where in the World is Chamonix?

Before the wedding invitation arrived, I had never heard of Chamonix. Upon learning where the wedding was taking place, my initial reaction was something like, "Sha-moo-what?!" I proceeded to look it up on Google maps to ascertain its geographic location. After all, France is one of the larger European countries in terms of land area. I discovered that Chamonix (formally called Chamonix-Mont-Blanc), is a popular destination for winter sport enthusiasts located in the Haute Savoie department of the Rhône-Alpes region in the southeastern corner of France. The first Winter Olympics in 1924 was held here.
