South Africa has been on our bucket list for some time. I don't think you can turn the pages of a travel magazine without seeing Cape Town as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. We had high expectations and Cape Town delivered.
An Ambitious Adventure in Argentina
Ever since we started traveling, it has always been just the two of us. Traveling as a couple is easy, but with a group that's never traveled together, have never met each other and are coming from different styles of traveling (and situations, more to come) was a whole different ball game.

Our experience in the Ngorongoro Crater was beyond wildlife viewing (although to see such density of wildlife in such a small area was pretty amazing).

In either case, it truly is one world, one people when a black man from Chicago and Filipino woman from Philippines/Vegas is made to feel like a brother and sister.
