Here’s our itinerary from our girl’s trip in Paris, plus tips for making […]

  • Chris - Looks like 40 hours well spent! Way to pack in as much as you could and I’m sure the read aheads helped you maximize it all. I’d love to visit the Louvre and eat the fancy French food.

  • Kim Walker - Yeah, Paris (and Barcelona) are definitely cities that require tourists to plan in advance as tickets are timed to the minute of entry (and invalid if late!). Bit stressful when you can’t depend on accurate travel times! You’d love the Louvre–2.5 hrs was not enough time to see it all…

Have you ever wanted to go snorkeling with sea turtles? Then Akumal Bay may be your best bet. Snorkeling with sea turtles here is accessible and easy! You can watch these gentle giants munch on sea grass in fairly shallow water while snorkeling on the surface above–no need to dive down deep. In fact it’s […]

  • Natalie Field - Are the kayaks there to rent or did you bring them? We are interested in kayaking at a cenote. Thank you!

  • Kim Walker - Hi Natalie, the kayaks are already there ready to rent!

Sometimes you don’t need to travel far away to see an amazing sight. In fact, you might not even need to leave your own backyard! Lucky for me this week, I was already in the path of Totality when the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse passed directly overhead. I hadn’t planned on photographing it. Didn’t have […]

  • Lynette - WOW Kim that was fantastic!! What an amazing experience you captured with awesome photographs!! Love it!!

  • Kim Walker - Thank you!! It truly was amazing to see, and glad I could appreciate Totality with my bare eyes. Staring up at our Solar System made me feel so tiny in this wondrous world…

  • Jordan - You are truly talented! These shots are INCREDIBLE. I love the range that you captured in just a short amount of time!

  • Chris - Such detail and on short notice, very impressive log of events/timetables/details, coupled with beautiful shots to take in. Wow! Love the blue photos especially of the diamond ring. Hadn’t seen many of these around. Once in a lifetime event and you just happened to be in the direct path, with time and a solar filter available. Just Epic. Bravo

  • Kim Walker - Those late night cram sessions to learn all I could to best prepare paid off! Aren’t we lucky to live in an age where info is immediately available at our fingertips? No way I woulda figured it out without the web…

  • Kim Walker - Thank you very much!! It was admittedly nerve-wracking…but joyous to watch!
