High Falls Conservation Area (May 2021)
When we reached there, there were hardly any cars in the parking lot. It was a similar situation even during our previous visit. The falls overview can be reached from the parking area with <30 min hike through the wooded area via the green trail. There is a viewing platform to get a nice view…
Bash Bish Falls State Park (May 2021)
Coming out of the pandemic with both of us vaccinated, we felt a sigh of relief. May was bringing warmer days with the spring foliage in full bloom; it was an apt time for visiting waterfalls. We wanted to explore some areas that are nearby as the first outdoor trip for the year. Bash Bish…
Tulum & Coba – Mexico (Feb 2020)
We wanted to go on a short vacation in winter to some place warm and possibly a beach. Considering that Cancun is a very popular spot to escape to, from the cold Northeast, and being very accessible from New York, we kind of chose that place. But, being a popular spot = lots of crowd…
Adirondacks: Indian Head and Rainbow Falls Hike

We’ve been meaning to see the giant trees, lush green valleys of Yosemite and scenic Pacific coast, we kept postponing for several reasons. In a way, it was good that we didn’t plan there in…
Blue Mountain Lake – Central Adirondacks
Our agenda was to get to Blue Mountain Lake and do the small hike up to the Castle Rock Summit to get a view of the Blue Mountain Lake. The drive from our house through the foothills of Adirondacks didn’t show that the fall colors had peaked, but once we went past Warrensburg and the…
Alaska – South Central Region
We took off from BOS to ANC with a stop-over in Seattle. While passing through Seattle, we got a beautiful view of Mt.Rainier! It was a partially clear day and it helped. We reached Anchorage a bit past 11 p.m. and by the time we rented the car it was almost mid-night, but no sign…
