One the main ambitions of this trip was to see as many waterfalls as time would allow. We only hit one falls, Bwa Nef, in our first two days, but on the trip to our middle hotel, we drove right by...
Morne Trois Pitons National Park
Morne Trois Piton park is a World Heritage Site set outside of Roseau, the main town. From my research I was expecting a spectacular tropical setting with great hikes, boiling lakes, waterfalls...
Dominica, the north end
Eric purposely booked us into a place near the airport for our first two nights, so when we arrived in the late afternoon all we had to do was get into a hammock and enjoy our delicious welcome...
Humacao Nature Preserve and El Yunque
The weather was supposed to be unpredictable on Sunday, so we rescheduled our planned snorkeling trip via email to Monday and headed down to the Humacao Nature Preserve instead. Supposedly, this...
El Yunque (take 1)
One of the main reasons we decided to stay on the northeast side of the island was to be close to the El Yunque and all the waterfalls. So, on our first full day, we packed up the camera and headed...
more waterfalls off the Blue Ridge Parkway
After the long drive on forest service roads to several waterfalls on Sunday morning, we headed a little further down the Blue Ridge Parkway, enjoying the views. The sun came out nicely at the...
a beautiful drive with waterfalls
Some forest service roads in Georgia and North Carolina have made us wonder how we could change a flat tire on a one lane mountain road five miles from civilization. Others, like the two we were on...
trading waterfalls for a pub
Despite all of the rain on Saturday, we still managed to photograph a few waterfalls (although after the Linville Falls incident, pup remained in the car). Plus, there were some lovely cascades...
rain, rain go away
Our first day of waterfall hiking was a bit of a wash... literally. We knew it was going to be wet/muddy because it had rained for a full week before our visit to the NC mountains, but we were very...
Gap of Dunloe waterfalls
We had a very difficult time finding a good resource for waterfalls in Ireland before we left on this trip. Even when we asked locals, the most common answer was "Oh, how about the Torc waterfall?"...
Gap of Dunloe
Eric called this one of the top three most scenic drives we've done. Considering Chapman's Peak in South Africa and Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park are both on that list, that's...
Killarney National Park
After our stops at Muckross House and the Torc waterfall, the weather improved slightly as we meandered through Killarney National Park. The N71 took us past many small lakes and beautiful...
Oregon waterfalls, part 2: Multnomah to Elowah
To get the first part of the story, check out Oregon waterfalls, part 1: Latourell to Wahkeena. Multnomah Falls. The most photographed waterfall in Oregon and the second tallest falls in the United...
Oregon waterfalls, part 1: Latourell to Wahkeena
Latourell Falls. Our first waterfall of the trip and the height of this one was stunning. Little did we know that all the waterfalls along this stretch are very, very tall. We just don't get that in...
a new look to our waterfall page
All this waterfall hiking over the last few weeks had me working overtime on photo editing, finding GPS coordinates and lastly, redesigning our waterfall pages into a slicker CSS-styled look. Eric's...
Ricketts Glen State Park
Rolling up at 10am, I panicked a little when I saw the guard setting up a barricade for the Lake Rose parking lot. Thankfully, he waved us past and we got one of the last parking spots before folks...
a short break for some waterfall hiking
Just a quick update from Utica, NY... we are heading up to the Adirondacks this weekend and may not have internet, so the Barcelona updates will resume on Sunday when we return to civilization. :)...
Lily Lake and North Cheyenne Cañon Park
On our way south to Colorado Springs to meet up with my dad and Lynn, we took a short stroll around Lily Lake on the southern end of Rocky Mountain National Park. We saw more birds and small mammals...
