Tranquility Bay in the Middle Keys
Totsie is great at winning FREE trips from the radio station, MAJIC 102.7, the oldies station here in Miami.
And she won us a nice, mid-week trip to Marathon, in the Middle Keys. It even included meal coupons.
Here are some nice pix that Totsie took of the trip.
Key Biscayne Surprise Anniversary Getaway
Totsie surprised me with a great weekend getaway to the Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne, to celebrate our 33rd wedding anniversary. Here are some nice pics from that short, romantic getaway.
Watch the short (5:07) video below, too.
Music is Stargate, by Starcastle, that we used at our wedding, in 1976.
Costa Rica Eco-Adventure
Totsie and I enjoyed a great tour of Costa Rica, with Trafalagar Tours.
Check out Totsie's photos, read the trip report and see the videos that I've edited.
New York City Trip
In September, Totsie & I went to New York City, part of a business trip for me. We were lucky to get a reasonably priced hotel right near Times Square. We enjoyed the Museum of Modern Art and a somewhat rainy boat ride around Manhattan. Here are some nice pics from Totsie.
Chicago Trip
Totsie and I had fun traveling to Chicago to visit with our nephew, Paul, and his girlfriend, Lee. Here are some of Totsie's shots during our visit of the Windy City.

Ft. Myers Beach, Florida
Totsie won a free trip to Lovers Key, just south of Ft. Myers Beach, on the West coast of Florida, south of Sarasota and north of Naples. We had a very relaxing time, met some old friends, and enjoyed some great food. Enjoy some of Totsie's nice photos. |

Our Hawaiian Christmas
In 2007, Totsie & I had a great time during the holidays on The Big Island of Hawaii.
We stayed at the Outrigger Kanaloa at Kona. It was more like a condo than a traditional hotel, which is what we were looking for. Plus, we rented a car to get around The Big Island. The highlight was flying by helicopter, with the doors OFF, and watching hot, molten lava flow down Kilauea. We also went whale watching, and saw a few whales, but lots of dolphins. A great Travel Agent who lives in Arizona and travels to Hawaii frequently, helped us out, and we'd love to throw some business her way, if Hawaii is in your future travel plans. Contact Juleen directly.
I've added more photos (8/17), and divided them into sections. Browse through, or jump to specific sections:

Africa
2006 was our 30th Wedding Anniversary (and they said it wouldn't last!), and what better way to celebrate than to travel to the destination of a lifetime -- AFRICA.
After some more research, we decided on Tanzania and Kenya. We chose Wildlife Safari. We had a great time in Kenya and Tanzania, ending up in Zanzibar, a small island off the coast of Tanzania.
As you can imagine, the photos and video are more than will fit within our "Travel" Page. So, we've set up a special, separate "Africa" pages, with photos and links to the video and full trip report.
