Guatemala Classico Trip

Even though our visit to Guatemala was short, it equated to a lifetime of memories that Jens and I will never forget. We walked through textile markets where we saw beautiful vibrant colors, hiked by lakes and volcanos, and witnessed churches, cathedrals and ruins. It was an awesome trip!

Galapagos by land!

Never a dull moment in the Galapagos, when I wasn't having my picture taken with a giant tortoise or sea lion, I was snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, biking or horseback riding through the remarkable landscape. I also got to get up close and personal with my different kinds of birds! An excellent Galapagos adventure!
