Colors of Peru
Peru, were you find every shade of colors. It was tough trip but with out 3 am daily mornings, late nights, cold nights, cold showers, hale, vicious mosquitos, fire-ant attack  and torrential amazon rain we wouldn’t see all the magical places and meet wonderful people. One day in Lima to meet up with Margo and Christian from Vancouver as In Vancouver they could never find time to meet 😉 We started in Cusco, with Machu Picchu, where clouds were competing with us over the view but eventually they opened up. Rainbow Maintain at 5.200 m (the same as Mt Everest Base) was next and big failure on the elevation sickness but we made it, well horses helped. Moray and Mares was finally something more relaxing. Overnight bus to Puno in the sleepover bus with blankets, pillow, food served and TV, 30$ for 8 hour drive (seriously Canada you should learn from that). Staying on the floating island of Uros was priceless, walking, sitting, sleeping on straws was a blast with hot bottles in our feet to keep the temperature bare-able at night. Long day to Nazca Lines and all the UFO stories, Paracas National Reserve were my mom was in heaven picking up seal, birds bones and Ballestas Island with over million birds and we saw Penguins too. Finally- Amazon where mosquitos welcomed us right away. Three days in Amazon with two guides and Steve, cool guy working for Amazon LoL. Wildlife blew our minds, crazy big spiders, monkeys, toucans, thousands of birds and the highlight Sloths and hairless dogs. One night we staid in the amazonian village and one camping. We got introduced to lots of medicinal plants in the jungle, we even used natural iodine for mosquito bites ( this is why I have yellow marks on my hands).. ..and mom found monkey scull :)
Food in Peru is more than delicious ! Fresh Juices are the best so far I ever had. Enjoy the journey !
Yellowknife 2018

Yellowknife: -33 degrees check!, dog sledding check!, ice fishing check!, northern lights next time 😉

Four days in a very cold and peaceful land of Northern Territory. The warmth of the locals stole our hearts.  Met Snow King who builds ice castles since 1995 as a gift to the community, drove on a ice road, ate fish from frozen, Slave Lake and visiting the first nation communities: priceless. Visited Giant (closed for public) Gold mine. We even had chance to g to emergency 😉 . We will be back !

Yellowstone and Moab 2017

We drove through lots of states, starting from Washington, to Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah and Oregon. The whole 8 day trip felt like a month and we did a good 4800 km.
Yellowstone was all about Coyotes this time, we saw 3 of them and for the first few days we thought they were wolves. Even an online comparison is very hard to judge by, especially in Yellowstone as they do look very alike. We saw some big moose but were too late with the cameras. As always we saw bisons, prong horned antelope, deer, bull elk and longhorn sheep. My parents were laying off from taking pictures and coyotes made their day already.
We headed south to Moab. Since we managed to get permission to go off road on White Rim in the Canyonlands, dad decided to do some off road practising in Arches National Park. It tuned out to be a very hard and challenging route, way harder than the White Rim. For sure we had some fun but some parts made our eyes twice as big.
Canyonlands off road scenery was stunning, probably the best my parents saw.
We will be back for sure!!!

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

The day started at 6am when mom decided to be first on the beach. It was worth it as the sunrise was spectacular. Cabo San Lucas went though a rough time last year and due to a hurricane all the beaches were washed out. Big change since we last were here 5 years ago. Very hard to get to the Lover’s Beach by boat, a steep deep entrance and you pretty much have to jump from the boat to the sandy ground, and you have a window of only a few seconds as the waves are pretty big. In the end we managed, the prize was empty beach just for us and picture opportunities for mom. This time there was lots of posing 😉 Even mom managed to be photographed. On the way back we saw a man giving fish to a random sea lion at the shore, of course we couldn’t resist and we went his way and did the same thing :) Priceless.
Enjoy 2 pages of pictures.

Feb/March 2015 what’s new

Last month was busy busy…3 birthday parties, new projects and special visit from my lovely auntie Iwonka. Kim ( guitar maker ) visited us with his family. I had to eat extra meat portions to keep up with the speed 😉 ( picture to prove). Mom had some fun with her new app, changing me to princes.
Check for yourself. We are off for a vacation tomorrow therefore this post I kept short and sweet.

Christmas Concert 2014

I am slowly catching up. Here is “poor” version of my Christmas Concert at daycare. The lighting was pretty none existing hence the video quality. Enjoy!!!
