Given that this is our third visit to Maui and that some of these places and things are repeats, it’s tough to know how to catalog it. I’ve decided to break it into four posts. The first (this one) will cover our beach days and where we stayed. The next Read more
Umbrella drinks without umbrellas and butlers for days. Cabo, a magical place were everyone speaks English and Sean kinda speaks Spanish.
The place we stayed the night before, in Doolin, was unremarkable so I’m not going to bother wish photos. However they did have a map for guests to pin their homelands. I somehow managed to cram one into the already over-marked southern tip of CA. There was also a group Read more
About a 15 minute drive from our Airbnb was Bass Lake. We did some hiking nearby and then walked along the water for a bit. It was a Thursday morning and overcast, so it was quite peaceful. Mono Trail We started off with a very short but poorly-labeled-as-easy hike called Read more
For those of you who are uninterested in my chatter, this post has all the pictures from the other posts as well as an apparently 11 minute video compilation of the clips we took while on the go. If you’re interested in the van we stayed in, click here. If Read more
It’s day 8 of our trip and we still hope to be able to pronounce a place we’ve visited. Stay tuned. The Snaefellsjokull National Park (It’s pronounced “WTF”, the “Snaefellsjokull” is silent) is the place of a shipwreck from the, oh lets say early 1900s because I don’t remember, and Read more

The first stop on Day 3 was Seljalandsfoss which is a waterfall that you can walk behind. After nearly 4 decades of playing video games I’ve finally been able to do this in real life. Spoiler alert – there wasn’t a treasure chest behind it. 😢 Seljalandsfoss Once you’ve gone Read more
For those of you who don’t know, Sarah and I got married on Maui in 2015. We had planned to return in 2020 for our 5-year anniversary but COVID had other plans. So in 2021, we returned on our 6-year anniversary to celebrate our 5-year anniversary because it’s illegal to Read more
As we’ll be doing for the next couple of days, we spent the day on the dog beach in Ocean Beach, San Diego. The pups do enjoy running around and behave incredibly well off the leash, but they opted largely to just sit with us all day. At one point Read more
