It was a beautiful, sunny day and I figured since I haven’t been to the Minnesota Zoo since moving to the Twin Cities that I would go spend part of the day there with the girlfriend!

Soaking in the sun on the beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic!
My trip to Punta Cana was fun and relaxing especially since in the Midwest it was pretty cold at the time too. Staying at an all-inclusive resort allowed us to enjoy ourselves without having to worry about food and drinks. Definitely would go to Punta Cana again!
Red Rock Canyon, the other Red Rock.
This is not that Red Rock. This Red Rock is the Canyon, not the Amphitheatre near Denver, CO. Although, it does have similar rock structures! Spent the day here for our lazy Sunday.
Exploring the Valley of Fire in the Moapa Valley, NV
After our stop at the Hoover Dam, we traveled north to the Valley of Fire. It wasn’t as hot as Hoover Dam, but we were still sweating from all the hiking. Gorgeous landscape in the middle of nowhere!
Scorching hot day at the Hoover Dam!
Up bright and early on a Saturday, with our first stop at the Hoover Dam before heading to Valley of Fire. With the temperatures already in the 80s in the morning, thank goodness for air conditioning!
Spring Mountain Ranch State Park near Las Vegas
I had the whole day to myself before the rest of the group arrived in Vegas, so I decided to start it off at Spring Mountain Ranch State Park in Nevada after landing in Las Vegas.
Tokyo, Japan – Trip Video!
Checkout the video that’s on YouTube of our trip to Tokyo, Japan!
The Big Easy – New Orleans, LA
Let’s do a throwback to early July 2014! A few friends and I went on a random weekend trip to New Orleans to check out what the French Quarter, Bourbon Street, and the NOLA food scene had to offer. Hand Grenade, Purple Drink, and Hurricane cocktails…what could go so right?
The City by the Bay – San Francisco, CA
During my visit to California to visit family in Sacramento, I took the opportunity to go hang out in San Francisco for the Thanksgiving weekend with some of my cousins. Did the usual sightseeing then went crabbing before heading back to Sacramento.
Until next time! – Japan
The last couple of days before I came back to the United States were spent buying things to bring back, catching anything we may have missed that was nearby, and just relaxing a bit after a long, arduous week.
