Crossing Colonial Yucatán
Crossing the colonial Yucatán Peninsula, we formed new pastel-colored impressions amidst a background of jungle green.
Travel
The Day the Dinosaurs Died
Like pilgrims flocking to the site of an astronomical apparition, we reached the end of a fishing pier in the small village of Chicxulub, Yucatán, Mexico.
To Cancún Beach and Beyond
After a couple of beach days in Cancún, we started inland on a month-long circumnavigation of the Yucatán Peninsula.
Mexico is Calling
With the Yucatán Peninsula, Oaxaca, and Puebla, we have picked three irresistible places in southern Mexico for our next month-at-a-time adventure.
Crazy for Cervantino
“Where there is music there can be no evil” Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quixote
Rocking the Cradle of Independence
From Guanajuato, I marched across the Bajio region of central Mexico, a fertile plain considered the Cradle of Independence.
Santa Barbara Black and Blue
For all its charm and excellence, the American Riviera has taken an environmental pounding from the prized and prolific reserves of crude oil lying in wait beneath its bright and vibrant surface.
Style out of the Rubble
Out of the rubble of the 1925 earthquake, Santa Barbara became a showcase for design and construction in the Spanish Colonial Revival architectural style.
California’s Côte d’Azur
Whether it’s the first-rate wines, mild Mediterranean climate, or azure seas lapping onto its alluring downtown beaches, the Santa Barbara coast does bear an uncanny resemblance to its more illustrious French cousin.
South to Santa Barbara
We left Monterey, drove down the coast, and moved to Santa Barbara for the month of October.
