This was to save ourselves… Continue reading Travel & Adventure Day: Alaskan Cruise

Ty and I started the day off early thanks to the neighborhood roosters. Ugh off and on since about 4am and then constant from 6am on. Ty found out that the day tour he thought he booked for today was actually for tomorrow. So we had no plans. This led him to look into flights… Continue reading Travel Day: Cebu to Coron (take 2)

Ty and I woke up and decided to explore the reef behind our house. It was so beautiful but very much sharp coral, and not soft sand. What a wonderful way to start the day. Then we had breakfast at the hotel, and it's been ok, nothing really wrong with it. However, nothing can compare… Continue reading Adventure Day 8: Bora Bora

Today was a stay on the property day for us. Wonderfully low key! We relaxed in the morning, we've been enjoying our own quiet time. Ty reads, or gets work done.
