Turtle Bay Resort, Oahu HAWAII
The most expensive hotel I have ever booked. But would I do it again? YES.
I love this place - the area, the surf, the views, the people, the turtles, the laid back nature. Take me back anytime. Please.

New Orleans
New Orleans through my lens.
‘Want to go to Jazz Fest with me?’
Of course, my answer was ‘sure!’ even though I didn’t know anything about jazz, or New Orleans, or the festival itself. I’m always up for an adventure - especially with my cousin. And this sure was one of those.
“The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival is an annual celebration of local music and culture held at the Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans, Louisiana.”
And to my surprise, it’s not just jazz. 2023 was a celebration of Puerto Rico - and I was in my element.
“New Orleans is a Louisiana city on the Mississippi River, near the Gulf of Mexico. Nicknamed the "Big Easy," it's known for its round-the-clock nightlife, vibrant live-music scene and spicy, singular cuisine reflecting its history as a melting pot of French, African and American cultures.”
It was my first introduction to mainland USA and I loved it. Perhaps not the food or smells so much, but everything else.
Here is my version of a week in New Orleans.
