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 While visiting Chapultepec Castle in Mexico City, we were looking through the different rooms of the Castle, which remain intact with the same furniture they had when former Leaders of Mexico lived here. The whole place is luxurious and ostentatious. We couldn’t help but taking a self portrait lookin at our reflection in a mirror rather than taking a selfie... . . . #selfportrait #luxury #ostentatious #chapultepec #castillo #museum #travel #notselfie #mirror #reflection #funpics #door #findus #photography #photooftheday #mexicocity #letsgoadventuring #travelaroundthegalaxy #mexico Behind the scenes of that perfect shot. “Hey let’s go get s drink at that rooftop patio, I bet we can get a good shot” When the waiter goes downstairs, we start climbing on furniture. In case you were wondering, the shot turned out Great. . . . #travel #mexico #photography #bernal #photographers #penadebernal #queretaro #vivemexico #travelmexico #adventure #theperfectshot #trsveltribe #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring A good place to find a good view of the Mexico City skyline is from Chapultepec Castle. The skyline just goes on forever and ever! It’s so big! . . . #travel #mexicocity #cdmx #mexico #vivemexico #castillo #castle #chapultepec #castillodechapultepec #chapultepeccastle #views #city #skyline #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring One thing we miss about summer is hiking. Finding the perfect trail is key; finding ones that lead to incredible views like this - overlooking the Howe Sound - make all the effort worth it. This is St Marks Summit, located in Cypress Provincial Park. . . . #travel #vancouver #throwback #hiking #views #canada #stmarkssummit #britishcolumbia #explorebc #parkscanada #cypress #cypressprovincialpark #provincialpark #dailyviewbc #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #nature #natureisamazing #photography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring Just about a year ago, we visited the incredible Mayan Ruins at Ek Balem, just north of Valladolid, on the Yucatán Península. We should probably start planning our next ruins trip soon... . . . #travel #mexico #yucatan #mayanruins #ekbalam #mayan #ruins #vivemexico #yucatanpeninsula #valladolid #valladolidyucatan #history #beautifulplaces #exploringtheglobe #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoaeventuring Remember the summer?? It’s Sunday, so we thought it would be a nice time to share something for #sundaysunsets. This sunset shot was taken at Crescent Beach in White Rock (just south of Vancouver) during the summer, and we it caught at the perfect moment when the birds began to take flight. . . . #travel #vancouver #whiterock #sunset #canada #britishcolumbia #ohcanada #explorebc #sunsets #dailyviewbc #livelovecanada #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #birds #nature #boundarybay #crescentbeach #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #teaveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring One of Mexico’s most celebrated artists, Diego Riviera grew up in Guanajuato, and his family home has been turned into a museum. He is most famous for his murals, which are painted throughout Mexico, and this museum allows you to see some of his early drawings which led to these masterpieces. We had seen some of his work in Mexico City (at Bellas Artes in CDMX) so for us, this was a really rewarding experience. . . . #travel #mexico #guanajuato #diegorivera #museum #museo #guanajuatocapital #museocasadiegorivera #vivemexico #travelmexico #artists #beautifulplaces #centralmexico #exploringtheglobe #mexicotravel #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring If you’re on the sea to sky highway between Vancouver and Whistler, make sure to stop off at Alexander Falls. Located along the Callaghan Valley road, this 43 meter tall waterfall is just asking to have its picture taken. . . . #travel #vancouver #whistler #alexanderfalls #seatosky #seatoskyhighway #dailyviewbc #canada #britishcolumbia #explorebc #waterfall #nature #natureisamazing #exploringtheglobe #beautifulplaces #photography #travelphotography #travelphoto #travelpics #travelgram #traveltheworld #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventuring This is the view from the top in Cholula Pueblo Mágico. . . . #cholula #pueblomagico #magictown #picturesque #puebla #cityincolor #beautifulplace #fromthetop #theview #pretty #travel #exploringthecity #travelphotography #letsgoadventuring #nofilter #color #churches Wandering through the picturesque streets in this beautiful ‘Pueblo Mágico’ (a category given to small towns in Mexico that are full of history, culture, traditions and fantastic stories) we found this beautiful street. Tequisquiapan is another one of the amazing magic towns that we’ve visited in Mexico. Definitely we’ll be back!!! . . . #pueblomagico✨ #pueblomágico #tequisquiapan #picturesque #travel #travelphotography #exploringmexico #beautifulplace #mycountry #traditions #brightcolors #expats #bugambilia #wanderlust #wanderers #travelaroundthegalaxy #letsgoadventure #thephotooftheday #beautifulstreet #queretaro #vivemexico #visitamexico #mexico #
