Adventures Down Under: The Great Ocean Road

September 29, 2019September 29, 2019 / Kelly / 3 Comments

'The ocean stirs the heart, inspires the imagination and brings eternal joy to the soul.'-Wyland I have come to the end of the road Down Under so it seems appropriate that the last thing I did was spend the day on the Ocean Road! Much like the Pacific Coast Highway, of which this is very reminiscent, the … Continue reading Adventures Down Under: The Great Ocean Road

Adventures Down Under: The Outskirts of Melbourne

September 23, 2019September 23, 2019 / Kelly / 2 Comments

'Our task must be to free ourselves... by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and it's beauty.'-Albert Einstein Melbourne, Australia was my final stop! I actually did not spend any time in the city other than to sleep, so I cannot speak to the city itself. … Continue reading Adventures Down Under: The Outskirts of Melbourne

Adventures Down Under: The Great Barrier Reef

September 12, 2019September 12, 2019 / Kelly / 1 Comment

'The ocean is everything I want to be. Beautiful, mysterious, wild, and free.'-Unknown I have loved the ocean for as long as I can remember. Going to Sea World was a highlight of my childhood summers. I have watched every documentary about the deepest parts of the ocean. I love listening to the waves crash … Continue reading Adventures Down Under: The Great Barrier Reef

Adventures Down Under: Cairns, Australia

September 6, 2019September 6, 2019 / Kelly / 1 Comment

'The sea is a desert of waves/A wilderness of water.'-Langston Hughes The second stop on my Australian adventure was the coastal town of Cairns. I spent three days in this tropical paradise. When I arrived, an Iron Man competition had finished the day before. You want to feel out of shape...where a bikini with triathletes! … Continue reading Adventures Down Under: Cairns, Australia

Adventures Down Under: Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb

September 2, 2019September 2, 2019 / Kelly / 2 Comments

'Do one thing every day that scares you. '-Eleanor Roosevelt I wasn't going to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It was on the provided list as a possible excursion but I am terrified of heights and immediately crossed it off. I panic and hyperventilate. Once, when I was at the Eiffel Tour, the elevators were … Continue reading Adventures Down Under: Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb

Today is the anniversary of the Mount St. Helen’s eruption. I grew up fascinated by what had happened but nothing can prepare you for how barren the land still is after all these years, especially if you visit Mt. Rainier after.
Adventures await…stay tuned.

Overwhelmed by all the website traffic regarding my Christmas Holiday to Page, Arizona! This is a shot from a true hidden gem, Cathedral Canyon. While you may go to see Antelope Canyon, don’t sleep on this one or Secret Canyon!
I’ve had a whirlwind couple of days, very tired, and working about a million hours this weekend but very grateful.
A busy weekend and potentially life changing week ahead (no pressure, ha!) so remembering beachside camping last month…
A peacefully spot in the heart of the city…
My recent post on Upper Antelope Canyon has had a big spike in readership…thank you so much and I hope you enjoy the canyon as much as I did! Link in bio.
As #nationalparkweek comes to a close, a unique view of @brycecanyonnps_gov! When I headed home from my Christmas holiday in Arizona, I passed behind Bryce’s famous hoodoos. It was such a cool perspective, especially at sunset!
Moody vibes on Lake Crescent, Olympic National Park…
