Brilliant stars shining through our Stargazer window, just above our bed awakened us this morning just after 5:30 AM and propelled us out of bed, into warm clothes, and out the door of our T@B into an amazing nightscape here in the Alabama Hills of California. The nearly full moon had set, there’s no city lights here, just amazing starlight. In an attempt to capture the magic we tested the limits of our photographic capability. Our Sony is capable of capturing great photos in very low light but our tripod is not stable enough for 30 second exposures. None of the starlight photos were worth keeping but we got a few good ones in the early light of sunrise!

OUR VERY

LATEST

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
