Beautiful Hawaii ๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ป!

Hawaii is simply an amazing paradise ๐Ÿ˜Š! Trust me, no matter how many times you go there, you always want to go back. With these types of views, why not?youtube.com/shorts/U1ZNvY8m50k

It is a magnificent shade of green captured in the video. Perhaps the nature of Hawaii is the most underrated aspect of Hawaii. Turns out that the government in Hawaii, goes to great lengths to preserve these natural views. They make sure that developers could only build in designated parts of Hawaii.

The beautiful place that you see in the video was captured in Lihue, Hawaii which is miles away from beautiful Kauai ๐Ÿ˜Š. I felt as if I was visiting a different world looking at these views๐ŸŒŽ. In the mainland USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ, nature is sacrificed in the name of development all of the time ๐Ÿ˜‚.

As a result, in some places, you struggle to find nature of any kind. Meanwhile, concrete jungles of roads, stores and movie theaters abound. Makes you really think ๐Ÿค” of whether our priorities might be a little bit misguided! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Views and more๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ!

Nothing quite like beautiful views and delicious food ๐Ÿ˜‚! If you can find a place like this, you are most likely to return as soon as you can. Such was the case with Rick’s Cafe in Negril Jamaica ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ฒ. If you have seen other videos of this place on my blog, you already know how amazing it is๐Ÿ˜Š. If you are seeing this blog for the first time or you are returning and need a great reminder, here is the link: youtube.com/shorts/cRzlwEv16HM

In the video, am standing at the top level of Rick’s Cafe looking out on all of the phenomenal surroundings. The views are truly superb and provide just a glimpse of what you can expect when visiting this wonderful place. There is absolutely no doubt that this place is rated the #1 Beach ๐Ÿ– Bar in the World by the Travel Channel.

If you get an opportunity to visit in the near future, run don’t walk to this location ๐Ÿ˜‚. It is an absolute must see and you will enjoy hours of fun eating and enjoying the beautiful sights and sounds of this magnificent place ๐Ÿคฉ!

Waterfall Vibes – Unbelievable ๐Ÿคฉโค๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ!

How I love chasing waterfalls ๐Ÿ˜! Made popular by the 90s group, TLC – chasing waterfalls has been on folks minds ever since then. I have always wanted to see them for the first time, up close and personal, just to see what all of the hype is about. Boy, was I very happy that I did – the view was amazing:. youtube.com/shorts/oXI7-2IIItE

This sight was just phenomenal๐Ÿคฉ. I could not believe my own eyes. Such a wonderful sight. If you haven’t seen a waterfall, make sure you plan to do so. It could be as massive as this one or even smaller than the one above. The great thing about Hawaii is that waterfalls abound almost on every single island ๐Ÿ.

This particular one is called Akaka Falls and it is located in the Akaka Falls State Park in Hilo, Hawaii. Hilo is at a higher elevation than the rest of the Big Island ๐Ÿ of Hawaii, so get ready for mountain elevation. The air tends to be a lot thinner in the mountains ๐Ÿ” as I discovered when hiking to see this waterfall ๐Ÿ˜‚. I was panting a lot – since I was not accustomed to higher elevations.

It was an adventure that I would absolutely do again. I always love to see new places and experience new things. Certainly some the great opportunities that travel affords you!

Cliff Jumping – OMG ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜Ž!

Cliff Jumping is so very interesting to watch๐Ÿ˜ƒ! It is amazing that so many adventurous people love the rush of doing this. It takes courage to do so and nerves of absolute steel ๐Ÿ˜‚. Here is a great example of this: youtube.com/shorts/bVhhomdJ97A

Wow – his form is amazing ๐Ÿคฉ- almost like an Olympic diver. You could tell that he has done this before. It is amazing to perform this feat forward looking but to do it backwards is totally next level.

This video was captured outside of Rick’s Cafe in Negril, Jamaica ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ฒ. This place is an iconic beach bar and voted the best beach ๐Ÿ– bar in the world according to the Travel Channel! That is high praise for sure๐Ÿ˜ƒ. If you visit there once, you will definitely see why it was voted #1.

Fun in Negril๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŽŠ๐ŸŽ‰!

Negril has been an absolute dream ๐Ÿ›Œ! There is nothing else like this place in the world. Hanging out at Rick’s Cafe was so cool. It is world famous in the travel community. From this video, you can see why: youtube.com/shorts/mWBMpRVV7vI

This is a great place to dive into the water and have some fun ๐Ÿคฉ! I thoroughly enjoyed myself and look forward to coming back again. It was recently voted the #1 place to visit in Jamaica by the the Travel Channel ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. Make sure to add this gorgeous location to your bucket list!

As I have been on social media for many years, I have seen many pictures and videos taken from Rick’s Cafe๐Ÿ™Œ! As the name suggests, it is a restaurant but so much more also. Did you know that they also have cliff diving? I actually got a chance to witness this first hand and I have videos to share with you all also.

Feel free to check my blog in the near future for other posts from Negril and other travel destinations. You will be so glad that you did ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ™Œ!

Slow Ride – Aloha Style๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธโค๏ธ!

Nothing like a great scenic views๐Ÿ˜! My preferred mode of travel is an airplane but nothing quite beats a scenic drive. It has often been said that half the fun of travel is the journey to get there. That wholeheartedly applies to this great drive that I was able to capture: youtube.com/shorts/UWLOKj77HKU

This video was taken on the way down from Waimea Canyon in Hawaii. As you can tell from the video – the views are just incredible๐Ÿ˜Š! I don’t think that I have seen such scenic views before traveling here. I have previously shared, on earlier blog posts, the wonderful sights from Waimea Canyon. Never before have I shared such picturesque sky views from the journey.

Travel certainly opens your heart and broadens your mind. At the time that this video was captured, this was the final day of the vacation, so my trip to Kauai was winding down. The sky provided one last beautiful moment to add to the other beautiful moments that were captured during my stay.

Hope that this video will provide an uplift to you on today๐Ÿ˜€! Feel free to check back early and often for other blog posts, as I continue to travel the world ๐ŸŒŽ.

Cake by the Ocean Vibes๐Ÿ˜ปโค๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ!

Visiting Cozumel Mexico was a dream come true. I have always heard great things about Cozumel and Mexico in general. I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. The beach views were absolutely beautiful. Here is a clip from that wonderful experience: youtube.com/shorts/V9niQP1iRwc

Hope that you enjoyed the clip. The Beach views were just spectacular๐Ÿ˜ƒ. Hanging out there, just have me the best sense of peace. When you give everything that you got – working a job from week to week, you look forward to time away. Out of all of my travel experiences, I have never gone on a vacation and regretted it. I have come back better and more refreshed, every single time.๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Cozumel is by far, one of the most popular vacation spots in Mexico. It is easily in the top 5 locations to visit. In the clip that I shared, this beach ๐Ÿ– is located in a place called Chankanaab. If you have followed this blog for some time, you have certainly heard of it and have seen videos from it. If you haven’t seen the videos, I certainly encourage you to take a look the previous videos.

In fact, if you are looking for a great place to visit this summer, consider Cozumel as a possible destination.๐Ÿ˜ƒ It is a gorgeous city and the views are to die for!๐Ÿ˜ปโค๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Breakfast in Paradise ๐Ÿ˜Žโค๏ธ๐Ÿ˜

Perhaps one of the best views that I have ever had at breakfast, is right here: youtube.com/shorts/5gyKwXSyO2w

Imagine having delicious food here and having such a wonderful view๐Ÿ˜ƒ. That was my situation while vacationing on the beautiful island of Kauai. Storm โ›ˆ clouds aside, it was a view that I could get used too.

The location where I captured this video is the Hilton Garden Inn in Kauai, Hawaii. Should your travel plans take you to Kauai in the near and not so distant future, consider adding this place to your vacation plans. It is certainly a bargain compared to more pricier hotels in Kauai.

What you are seeing is the garden area of the hotel, which is located right outside of the restaurant. On this particular day, I was enjoying the top notch breakfast at there and wanted to capture the beautiful view. When you take a picture or video, it tends to last longer ๐Ÿ˜‚!

Happy Motherโ€™s Dayโค๏ธโค๏ธ!

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the true beautiful treasures of the world ๐ŸŒŽ. Having been blessed with a great mother, I can never underestimate the power of a mother’s influence on a life๐Ÿ˜Š. A mother’s love and affection can never be minimized.

One of the things that Mom (and Dad) passed on to me was the desire to travel to new locations. We used to take summer trips in the car to various locations. I remember how cool it was to see a new place that I had never seen before ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. It was almost as if I was in a different country. Here is a great video, that I had to share, which gave me the same vibe as when I was a kid: youtube.com/shorts/N3PPLNdQZH8

Hope that you enjoyed this video. This was the first video that I captured after landing in Hawaii. It was jaw dropping and will be forever burned in my mind. Little did I know how much adventure awaited me during this entire trip!

Tropical ๐ŸŒด Vibes for the Weekend ๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Tropical vibes are the best vibes ๐Ÿ˜Š! I love traveling to tropical places and experiencing tropical adventures๐Ÿ˜ƒ. For me, I could retire on a tropical island somewhere and live happily ever after. That’s my retirement plan for sure ๐Ÿ˜‚. The toughest thing for me will be figuring out which tropical island that I would like to retire on.

If there is ever one island that stands out in my mind, it would be the beautiful island of Kauai, which absolutely took my breath away๐Ÿ˜ƒ. I have never seen an island as beautiful as I saw visiting Kauai. To say that it is the number one travel location that I have ever visited, is spot on. Here is just a glimpse of the type of beauty that you will see there: youtube.com/shorts/90vPMdD89OI

The video above, captures some of the Smith Fern Grotto, which is a must see when visiting Kauai. If you are a lover of all things tropical, look no further than the Smith Fern Grotto. In order to get here, you have to take a 15-20 minute boat ride and walk through a small forest to get there!

Sounds like an adventure for sure and you are sure to enjoy the sights and the sounds of visiting this beautiful place. Hope that you will make your plans soon to visit.
