Puerto Rico - Day 1


We arrived our Airbnb around 3am and welcomed by huge Chameli vine on entrance ! It was very fragrant and in quiet early morning it was very intense! What a great welcome by this pretty island!




We got up and headed straight to beach after tea and breakfast. The first blue view was very refreshing, especially coming from cold weather. After spending time in water and sand kids decided to have kite surfing lessons. Waves were very good and many people were doing kite surfing. They took a lesson about how to navigate the kite, needed more lessons to ride a board. 






After lesson we headed for lunch and out first lunch outside was super yum! Kids had burritos and we had burrito bowl! Passion fruit juice, lemonade, local beer and mojito was tasty! It was called Acapulco Mexican!!




Beautiful mural painting stumbled while walking 




Went back to home and took nap and shower. It was time to visit old San Juan! Cobbled streets, colourful building, unique shops and restaurants are some of the aspects of Old San Juan. We ate in a exotic Puerto Rican restaurant Cafe El Punto. It was a old house converted into restaurant. We ate the famous mufango here and liked it. Guava mojito was another local specialty. It was great!

A Journey Through Sunshine and Serenity: Our Florida Getaway

Embarking on a journey to Fort Lauderdale, our adventure began with a serene stay at the Miami Beach Ocean View Hotel. We reached late to hotel and when we opened our eyes, it was a pleasant welcome by morning sunrays. The first day was a delightful blend of cultures, starting with the vibrant Wynwood Walls neighborhood, where the gelato’s authenticity transported me straight to Italy. Dinner was an elegant affair at a chic restaurant, setting the tone for the days ahead. The second day greeted us with a hearty breakfast at South Beach, followed by an exhilarating bike ride along the Hollywood Beach Boardwalk with Jai. The thrill of surfing was complemented by the taste of fresh fish tacos and the unique Shark Tank drink. Jai really enjoyed surfing and tacos. As the day waned, Häagen-Dazs ice cream for me and frozen yogurt for Jai were the perfect sweet treats before an evening spent basking in the ocean’s embrace. On the third day, We savored  Einstein Miami bagel, a perfect start...

Canadian Rockies - Day 2 - The Dream Day: Larch Valley Hike & Moraine Lake Magic

We started our second day in the Canadian Rockies with our little tradition — a steaming cup of masala tea. There’s nothing like that comforting aroma to kick off an adventurous morning. While sipping our tea, we had a great chat with our wonderful host, Jeremy -  a biker, traveler, and author of two books. He’s been around the world on his bike, and listening to his stories was truly inspiring. After breakfast, it was time for one of the most anticipated parts of our trip - the Larch Valley hike and visiting my dream destination, Moraine Lake! We grabbed some Subway sandwiches from Banff downtown to fuel up later on the trail and then headed toward Moraine Lake by shuttle. We started the hike around 12:30 PM, and wow — it was steep and challenging right from the beginning. But every step upward brought more breathtaking views of Moraine Lake below. The turquoise water kept peeking through the trees as we climbed higher and higher. As we gained elevation, the larches turned gold...
