New Years Vibes: Best Wishes😃😎!

Happy 2022 to all of you😀! Wishing you all a safe and prosperous New Year. Thanks for following my blog and for the comments that I have received in 2021. I am certainly ready for more and more travel adventures in 2022 and I hope that you are as well. I have composed a recap of my Kalahari Resorts visit and I would like to share it with you: youtube.com/shorts/0bXFikwSCkI

Hope that you enjoyed the video. Kalahari, both the beautiful resort and the indoor water park, greatly exceeded my expectations!😃 If you have never been, hopefully you will take a trip in this new year. The one that I visited, opened up in November 2020 and it is located in Round Rock, Texas. There are other locations here in the USA so there should be one near where you live.

Did I mentioned that it is indoors 😂? Which means that you can experience the whole water park experience in the climate control confines of the indoors, no matter what the weather may be outdoors. Perfect escape from the frigid cold weather that you may be experiencing in other parts of the USA or otherwise.

Wishing you and your families all the best that this New Year has to offer and I encourage each of you to work, vacation and repeat as often as you can this year!😀🙌

New Years Eve 2021: Travel Highlights 😎🙌

Final countdown to the end of the year. We are literally hours away from the start of a brand new year, 2022. No matter what we were expecting in 2021, the year in so many ways, exceeded some and fell woefully short of expectations. Here is some travel highlights from the past year: youtube.com/shorts/ycMXtiBRVw0

Hawaii was incredible and as you can tell from earlier posts, it was the best travel location by far. The gorgeous views cannot be replicated, it lays claim to its own picture perfect view of paradise. Hopefully some, if not all of you, had an opportunity to travel somewhere during the course of 2021. If not, hopefully 2022 will be a better year for travel.

Beaches are some of my favorite places to visit. All of the beaches in this video, were taken in Hawaii. I never seen a beach that I have not liked but these beaches are next level. I plan to visit another Hawaiian island on next year to experience even more of the LiveAloha experience.

Hopefully you enjoy the video above and that you will visit this blog early and often in the new year for other travel adventures! 😆

Unstoppable Holiday Views😎🙌

I hope that you are taking some quality time off this time of the year to unwind, relax and rejuvenate for the year ahead.😃This year has provided its share of ups and downs but nonetheless, we are still here! Here is a wonderful holiday adventure in Cozumel, just in case you need the break from the cold 🥶 weather or just a reminder of the summer, feel free to check it out: youtube.com/shorts/8n4TOQkF_Ik

Cozumel never looked as beautiful as it did on that day. It is such an amazing wonder that must been seen in order to adequately appreciate 😃! If you have never been to Cozumel, do yourself a favor and go. It is truly an amazing place to visit. I have seen some great places in my travels but this one is truly one of the best.

If you are a snow bird 🦅, you may consider taking a trip to this beautiful place. It is what is needed for rest and relaxation. Especially at the Dolphin 🐬 Discovery, which is where this video was taken. If you fancy, swimming with the dolphins, this is most certainly your place. You can also do some much needed shopping, tequila tasting, explore the beach among other things.

This place really has it all for you to thoroughly enjoy yourself and capture memories that are sure to last a lifetime! 😃🙌☝️

Counting Down to another year😀!

Another year is almost upon us😀! Hard to believe that 2022 is quickly coming on the horizon. We are in the final week of 2021, and as we prepare for lift off – here is a look at the International Space Station Exhibit from NASA: youtube.com/shorts/9dvMkv-DSaU

Isn’t this just so cool 😎? I enjoyed visiting this magnificent exhibit and definitely encourage you all to visit when you are able to do so safely. I have been blessed to visit multiple NASA locations and I have enjoyed all of them. You can easily spend hours upon hours visiting the beautiful, out of this world exhibits and still want to see more 😂.

I really do not have a favorite location, they are all so very interesting. Space always provides so much mystery and intrigue. We all would like to boldly go where we have never been before. Thankfully, with SpaceX and Blue Origin, we are getting to the point where space exploration is a reality for everyone.

Hope that you enjoy the video above and that you are getting prepared to lift off to a new year, 2022! 🚀😃💥

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁😃!

Christmas is finally here! 😃 Hope that you have enjoyed Christmas 2021. I have enjoyed spending quality time with my family and eating some great food 😋 Take a look at this beautiful view from Hawaii with some great Christmas vibes for good measure: youtube.com/shorts/PncHXf1F2kM

Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year! Whether you are spending it alone or with family, enjoy every single bit of it. Holidays are a vital part of the work, vacation, repeat process.😃 Everyone needs to take a break from the everyday routine. Does a body good for sure.

The video above was taken on the Big Island of Hawaii at Punalu’u Beach 🏖. Never have found a beach that I did not like 👍. This is one of the best that I have seen.

Enjoy the video and enjoy the rest of Christmas 🎅!

Christmas Vibes 🎅🎅🎄🎄

Christmas is almost here! Just around the corner now- it is hard to believe 😊. This video brings out all of the Christmas feels: youtube.com/shorts/qUObs_d3HjA

I love this time of the year, it is a time for giving and receiving❤️. As you walk around, the Christmas feeling is everywhere. I have seen more smiles than I have seen the entire year 😂. Despite all that we all have been through, we set it aside and get ready to enjoy the holidays.

Absolutely the most wonderful time of the year and the most anticipated. I am enjoying the holidays already, spending time with family and friends. We are doing so in a safe and effective manner and definitely encourage others to do so.

Hope that you all are enjoying the holiday away and that you enjoy the video.

Footprints in the Sand 😎!

One of my favorite poems of all time is “Footprints in the Sand”. If you have not read it, I encourage you to do so. Such a powerful message that resonates even more now in the days we live in. I cannot help but think about this poem when I look at this beautiful beach, filled with footprints 👣 in the sand: youtube.com/shorts/-NVWqJiQ9co

If you are wondering which hotel that this video was taken, it was taken at the Hilton Los Cabos Resort. I was on the balcony of my hotel room which thankfully was an ocean side view. Ocean view rooms are always ideal but they tend to be more expensive.

This particular day, as you can tell from the video, was clear and sunny. We tend to long for these type of days especially during the winter. The great thing about tropical 🐠 locations is that they have these days throughout the whole year. Birds have the right idea to fly south for the winter 😂!

Snow birds are very popular this time of the year. There are always warm, tropical locations to flock too. Not a bad way to spend winter 🥶😃☝️!

After Thanksgiving Feeling😊🙌

Hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving and a great weekend as well! 😀🙌 Not sure if you can relate to this video or not but I sure can 😂. Take a look: youtube.com/shorts/92KrMvafck8

Can you relate to this after Thanksgiving feeling? I sure can. Nothing else like the effects of a very appetizing Thanksgiving meal 🥘 and the tasty leftovers on the weekend. Sort of puts you in a very lazy mood.

This video was taken at the Houston Zoo during a recent vacation. I have never seen an animal this relaxed 😎. He is clearly relaxing and enjoying the day. Not sure how much he ate that day but maybe 🤔 it was an equivalent of a Thanksgiving dinner 😂!

As the Thanksgiving holiday comes to an end, I hope that you enjoyed your holiday and that you enjoyed the weekend in its entirety! 😀

Paradise Found – Black Sand Beach 🏖 😎🏖

If you have never seen a black sand beach before, take a look at this beauty: youtube.com/shorts/DuYuHBMULK8

I love the great contrast between the sand and the blue water😃. What a spectacular day it was to be there also. I was particularly grateful on this day because on my previous visit to this beach, it was raining cats and dogs 😂. I had no other choice but to leave because the weather was so bad.

On my trip to the Big Island of Hawaii, I was looking forward to having this experience. I could not wait to experience this for myself. The sand was so cool to the touch, if it was possible to take some of the sand back to me, I would have, just as a great souvenir!

After going to my first black sand beach, I am now looking for opportunities to go to other black sand beaches! They are so beautiful and an awesome wonder. I will need to visit the Big Island again to see if I can visit a green sand beach 🏖. Imagine how cool that would be!

Daily Dose of Vitamin Sea 🌊 😎!

Vitamin Sea helps me be me!😀Nothing else like it for sure. If you cannot be near it 24/7, memories of being near the ocean adequately suffices 😂. Here is a video of cruising near the coast of the Big Island 🏝 of Hawaii: youtube.com/shorts/026Ud8YYfF4

That water is a perfect color of blue. It is so very inviting. There are times that I wish I can teleport to different parts of the world 🌎. Maybe this technology will exist one of these days but in the meantime, imagination will do.

This particular video was captured in the downtown area of the Big Island. Down in this area of town is where the Iron Man Competition is held. Competitors also train in this area of town. Pretty cool huh 🤔?

As you can see, this was a picture perfect day to be out and about. I was living out a childhood dream that I had so many years ago to set foot on the island of Hawaii. I was certainly not disappointed and I look forward to visiting more Hawaiian Islands as I continue my travels.
