Wrap up: Friday- Tuesday! Home from Mexico

We're home!! Start to finish we were gone two weeks to the day. It felt both like a long time, and a short time, all at once. I'm currently in the "drowning but trying to catch up on life" phase right now (as I so nicely put it to someone yesterday who was asking me… Continue reading Wrap up: Friday- Tuesday!

Valle de Bravo (Day 2) —> CDMX

Thursday, August 18 After our extremely late night on Wednesday, I was dead to the world Thursday morning until after 9 am. Might have been 10- I can’t remember!!

Everyone just took it slow and hung around a… Continue reading Back from Tepotzlán and the laziest day of my life

Day 12= our last full day in Acadia!! We arrived Saturday and had some afternoon/evening time, then Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. So about 4 1/2 days. This was, I think, just about the right amount of time to do the park justice. Of course, with 100+ miles of hiking trails, we barely scratched the… Continue reading Day 12: Acadia National Park

Day 8: Belfast, Maine to Acadia

On vacation I always start to lose track of what day it is, but I think yesterday was Saturday. Since we arrived later/after dark to our hotel in Belfast, we had decided we would take a slow morning to enjoy the place. Unfortunately, we again had a foggy morning, so the ocean views were obscured… Continue reading Day 8: Belfast, Maine to Acadia
