This is the Pyramid of the Moon, which is located just outside of Mexico City. It is the smaller of two pyramids located at the ruins of Teotihuacan. Their history predates the Aztecs, and it is one of the most impressive ruins we’ve seen in Mexico. Alongside the two pyramids (the other of which you can climb) there are many other smaller temples and structures to explore. . . . #travel #mexico #cdmx #mexicocity #pyramidofthemoon #teotihuacan #pyramid #travelmexico #vivemexico #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #pyramids #adventure #photography #travelphotography #travelohoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheword #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Tonight we’re making ceviche! . . . #travel #mexico #ceviche #colourful #grocerystore #cozumel #rivieramaya #quintanaroo #tomato #lime #red #green #fresh #fruits #vegetables #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #photography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgosdventuring This incredible sculpture is located outside of the Museum of Vancouver. “The Crab” has been welcoming guests to the museum for over 50 years. The 6 meter tall sculpture was created by local artist George Norris in 1967, as part of the Canadian centennial. . . . #travel #vancouver #vancouverbc #britishcolumbia #canada #museumofvancouver #MOV #sculpture #art #publicart #georgenorris #thecrab #crab #outdoorart #explorebc #dailyviewbc #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring This was one of the most memorable hikes from 2019, when we made the trip to Crooked Falls (just outside of Squamish). We found some incredible views of the valley below, and got some up close views of the falls. . . . #travel #squamish #crookedfalls #squamishbc #britishcolumbia #canada #hiking #outdoors #explorebc #dailyviewbc #beautifulplaces #seatosky #exploringtheglobe #nature #mountain #waterfall #natureisamazing #photography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring I would say we had a pretty fun year in 2019. We traveled to some new and exotic places and created some amazing memories. As always, we’re looking forward to 2020 and writing the next chapter in our lives! . What’s your best travel memory of 2019? . . . #travel #YearInReview #machupichu #newyork #rockymountains #cozumel #salardeuyuni #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltribe #2019 #top9 #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Happy winter solstice everyone! Here’s a waaaaay back picture from Stonehenge. If you look between the archways at sunrise during the summer solstice, the alignment is perfect. In this picture, you can see the highway. . . . #travel #stonehenge #england #unitedkingdom #britain #wiltshire #solstice #wintersolstice #englandtravel #traveluk #travelengland #beautifuldestinations #salisbury #amesbury #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #history #archaeology #photography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Anyone who has been to Cozumel in the last few years will know about “the sailboat” located next to the ferry pier. It is the “Lady Alisha” and was abandoned by it’s Russian owner after it capsized. Every storm brings it a little bit closer to shore. . . . #travel #mexico #cozumel #sailboat #rivieramaya #quintanaroo #caribbean #capsized #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #boat #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Hiking to the top of Crown Mountain was definitely one of the highlights of 2019. It wasn’t an easy hike, as there was a lot of vertical to conquer, but the reward at the top was worth it. . . . #travel #vancouver #crownmountain #northvancouver #northshore #grousemountain #hiking #mountains #views #nature #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #natureisamazing #outdoors #parkscanada #vancouvercanada #dailyviewbc #photography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring I think this is my favourite street art addition from this summer’s Vancouver Mural Fest. Located just off of Main Street, I just love how simple this picture is and much colour this mural brings. I hope it’s here for many years to come. . . . #travel #vancouver #grafitti #streetart #mainstreet #canada #britishcolumbia #vancouverbc #explorebc #streetartchat #dailyviewbc #dailyviewvancouver #beautifulplaces #vanmuralfest #art #mural #exploringtheglobe #beautifuldestinations #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Arriving in Red Square was one of the first “oh wow” moments I experienced while traveling. This picture was taken way back in 2001 (when I was only 19 years old) when a friend and I decided to go to Moscow, Russia. We wanted to see the entombed body of Lenin. This was way off the beaten track as backpacking wasn’t a thing in the country; there were only 4 hostels in Russia at the time. It was a major culture shock, but an experience we will never forget. . . . #travel #throwback #russia #moscow #redsquare #beautifulplaces #2001 #easterneurope #stbasilscathedral #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #travelrussia #throwbackthursday #tbt #offthebeatenpath #traveltribe #city #square #photography #film #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Always take the time to stop and enjoy the flowers. A few months ago I took a trip to Crescent Beach (in White Rock) to go for a walk along the waterfront on a sunny summer day. This was just one of the many great views I discovered. . . . #travel #crescentbeach #vancouver #whiterock #britishcolumbia #southsurrey #explorebc #views #nature #flowers #beach #natureisamazing #dailyviewbc #imagesofcanada #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring This is the view from Plain of Six Glaciers, at Lake Louise. It is definitely one of the most beautiful places that we’ve ever been to. We had the place to ourselves and we were probably the last hiking group of the day since we didn’t run into anyone on the way back down the hill. We got as far as we could get to, we felt like we almost touched the glaciers. That little blue point in the background is Lake Louise, it seems so small and so far away, this view was a good pay off the effort! . . . #tbt #2013trip #plainofsixglaciers #albertacanada #canada #rockiemountains #glaciers #outdoors #summit #hikes #beautifulhike #mountains #lakelouise #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring #travelphotography #wishiwashere #travelgram #picoftheday
