My husband and I went to Maui a couple of months ago, and I’ve finally gotten around to going through all the pictures. While I got some pictures of some new beaches, I forgot to bring my camera to dinner, where duh Jessica all the sunset pictures will happen. So here is a mix of pictures from my Nikon and my iPhone! Trying to get some new perspectives from the last Maui photo diary.
In the last post about Washington we went to Eastern Washington, this week we are going to stay close to my current home town in Western Washington. I live on Whidbey Island, which is in the Puget Sound, about 40min north of Seattle. To do something quick for a morning hike or a short road trip we like to drive up the island to a small, short, mountain in Anacortes Washington, Mt. Erie.
Here are some of my favorite pictures from our road trip through Yellowstone National Park. You can read about the trip here!
On our first family vacation in over five years, my parents surprised us with an all-inclusive trip to Loreto, Mexico. We stayed at Villa del Palmar Loreto. It was so much fun that my husband and I went back with our parents after we eloped to Bora Bora.
Loreto is a quaint little fishing village about 3 hours north of La Paz on the Baja peninsula. Once you arrive at the airport, you are greeted by the friendly staff from Villa del Palmar. A perk of the resort was the affordable airport shuttle service.
Once you arrive at the resort, you are greeted with hibiscus tea, and the lobby looks out onto the luscious gardens and the ocean. You’ll want to make sure you book for the all-inclusive and grab your bracelets at check-in. Our first trip with the family we had three couples, so we stayed in one of the 3-bedroom suites. The suite was insane all the bedrooms had an on-suite bathroom, lanai, and view of the ocean. When we went back for the second time, we had a one bedroom, and it was fantastic with a full kitchen, laundry, and a soaking tub. With a lanai and a view of the ocean.
Here are some of my favorite pictures from our honeymoon in Bora Bora. Working on my nature photography!
Hi, I’m Jessica, and I love all things related to travel, fitness, and photography. Why the name Palm Tree Dreaming, because I have always had the wanderlust to travel the world, so far, my favorite places have been those with palm trees, white sands, and blue water.
What you’ll find on this site is lots of fun tips and tricks for traveling, staying healthy and taking pictures of all those fun vacations. I have played soccer and ran track my entire life, so staying active is a no brainer. Now I do it to stay healthy and ready at any moment for the next beach vacation.
I have a love of photography; although I may be an amateur photographer, I am excited to share all of my photos with you, from travel, food, and fitness. As well as my journey of learning to take better pictures along the way.
Currently, I’m a project manager and going to school for my masters. I’ll be posting twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays!
