Following Mr. Wetzel's Adventures Away from KC.
Thanksgiving Break trip to Morocco. Started in Marrakesh, then film studios in Quarzazate, and two nights of desert camping in the Sahara around Mhamid at the border of Algeria.
Then a night layover in Frankfurt, Germany. Walked through the Christmas market.
Cuzco to Ollantaytambo for the ancient Inca Trail for Thanksgiving break.
Spring Break trip from 2023
President’s Day weekend in Cornwall, UK & London with sibs James & Lois.
Here are some selections from a pre-Thanksgiving trip down to Montego Bay, Jamaica.
Thanks for the peace of mind you provided me, Jamaica. Respect.
Here are some selections from my summer trip to Greece which was carefully coordinated by my brother, Luke. I’m thankful to have had the opportunity to join his family to this beautiful and welcoming place.
On Day three, we headed out to Delphi for a day trip to see the ruins there.
Day 4 we took a ferry to the island of Hydra. There are no cars on the island, but walking around town and to the beach was amazing.
After a couple days in Hydra, we ferried onto the Peloponnese peninsula. We rented a car and headed down the coast to Nafplio.
One night we drove into Epidavros to attend a tragedy at a fourth century BC theater.
After two nights there, we drove through the mountains South to Sparta on the way to our stay in Paralia and visit to the old town of Monemvasia.
We then headed West along the southern coast to Kardimyli, stopping by a shipwreck on the way.
Later that day, we made the 3 hour drive back north, crossing the Corinth canal and making our way back to Athens for two more nights.
The last evening was spent catching the sunset at the Temple of Poseidon, East of Athens.
At the end of February, I took a domestic flight to Medina where I joined a small tour group to go to Al Ula in NW Saudi.
Here are some photos from the trip in which I met some great fellow Saudi Expats. Some photos (and they’re labeled) are courtesy of Fernando- a talented photographer on our trip.
My student trip to Tanzania that was supposed to happen at the end of March has obviously been cancelled due to COVID 19. We have started Distance Learning, teaching kids online, and that will be the case for the next few weeks at least. Let’s hope the Coronavirus will soon peak and subsequently make its decline. Stay safe and healthy everyone!
