Bocas Town is the largest community on the archipelago of islands. After breakfast we wandered down the main street and around to acquaint ourselves with the businesses and the culture. Here’s some of what we saw. Columbus discovered the area in 1502 and named the island after himself, which he frequently did. Isla Colon is […]
Laid back and relaxing…Quaint…Fascinating…Cool! All words that I can use to describe this little bit of paradise where we finally arrived. The aerial beauty of the journey did not escape me either.

Baja, Mexico – So near and yet so far away. Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo offer sun and relaxation that’s only a short flight from the US. It doesn’t get any better than this. Pristine resorts with endless beaches cover the coastline between the old city and the new one. Restaurants and […]
