We traveled through the city of Valdez , Alaska and came across one of the most amazing sights I have ever seen in nature. While entering the city, after crossing through Thompson’s Pass, we came across hundreds of bald eagles nesting in trees and fishing in the streams. It was very easy to see why these are America’s national bird. They are so majestic. There were so many of them, we just had to stop and take it all in.
It’s April, and where I’m from that means Spring is here and in full bloom! It’s time for Mother Earth to shake off the remnants of frigid winter and celebrate life once again. What better way to share this wonderful phenomenon than with a tribute to Spring’s beautiful blossoms in this weeks #FriFotos- Blooms!
Portland was one of the cities that was extremely high on my bucket list of places to visit. Unfortunately, if you have perused our travel regrets, you would know that I was sick the entire time I was there. I did not let this stop me! I was up early and ready to head into the city. I chugged down some cough syrup, grabbed a box of tissues, and was out the door. Here were some of my favorite things to do in Portland.
Being avid animal lovers we enjoy nothing more than an opportunity to spend time checking them out. Being South Florida locals, that normally means dodging alligators in the local pond, or staying away from giant iguanas. Whenever we need a break for our daily lives and we are looking for things to do in Miami, we love to take a trip down to Zoo Miami. If you’re visiting South Florida and looking for family friendly fun, or just different types of animals than the ones you find on South Beach, we strongly suggest a visit to Zoo Miami.
While traveling, there are a few things that I will absolutely make an unscheduled stop to see. Waterfalls are close to the top of the list. There is just something about the sound of water in motion that brings me in touch with mother-nature. The combination of beautiful scenery and the cleansing nature of water is a very strong draw for me. Here are a few pictures of my favorite waterfalls from across North America.
