We’ve had a terrific week here so far. The weather has been beautiful & everyone is so friendly. The diving has been tremendous too … until today, it’s blown out & the harbor is closed down. We’re hoping to get back out on Saturday. We spent the day on the beach in front of, Read More
We’re off to Mahahual in less than 8 hours. It’s been a crazy week at work, I easily put in 60 hours in the last 4 days but I’m more than happy to get up at 4am tomorrow to catch our flight out. I can’t wait to see Mahahual above and below sea level!, Read More
We’ll be in beautiful Mahahual in less than a week! We’ve been so busy between work and trying to get everything ready for the winter in Florida it really snuck (sneaked? sneaked is correct but I like snuck) up on us! In fact, a week from now, I’ll be enjoying my coffee overlooking the, Read More
For the record, I’m not a fan of returning to standard time. It’s a sign that winter is coming and the short, dark, cold days that accompany it. I love having daylight after work to enjoy some much needed time outside after being cooped up in the office all day. I love running in, Read More
It’s here! We splurged on underwater housing for our camera and it just came in! They were running a special too, buy the housing and get a body & lens for $50! That’s a huge value! We sold the extra lens for $50 but we’ll keep the body as a spare. It’s a last, Read More
I recently discovered a podcast that’s a great source of first hand information for anyone considering the expat life. I’m a gatherer of facts & I love hearing about other people’s experiences. My favorite book genre is by far the memoir so it’s no surprise to me that when it comes time to research, Read More
Awesome news! Our time off was approved and our trip is booked! In 35 days (33 now but who’s counting) we’ll be off to sunny Cancun, Mexico! No, we’re not reliving our college spring break days, Cancun is just the gateway to our adventure. From there, we’ll hop on a shuttle to Playa Del, Read More
We’ve been back from Key Largo for over a month now and I’m just now getting around to writing about it. We jumped right back into work within hours of getting in, then left for the OBX a few days later, so I really haven’t time to get my thoughts together. That’s part of, Read More
We love the travel app TripIt. It’s great for keeping all of your travel plans organized in one place and it has a lot of great features. One of my favorite features is the trip countdown. I love having a trip to look forward to and open the app often to see how many, Read More
I said in a previous post that we’ve never returned anywhere except Roatan and that was an outright lie! We spend at least a week every year in the Outer Banks of North Carolina (OBX to locals and frequent visitors). The reason that was such an easy omission isn’t because I don’t love and, Read More
