West Coast vacation September 2011

Krista and Adam flew to Mount Rainier, Washington and eventually made their way down to Los Angeles by car. Incredible times.

Here are some tourist shots. Here that is again NOT in slideshow form. Here are some Food and restaurant shots. And again NOT in slideshow form. And now some Antique and/ or interesting motor vehicles. Okay, here are some great landscapes we encountered. And finally... interesting things that aren't easily classifiable. THis is basically a photo blog, perhaps we'll add more descriptions later. We need to take vacations so we don't go too crazy running Food Shark. Also made some great Light Experiments the last night of our trip in LA. Hope you enjoyed the photos. Check out some of the older blogs as well if you like what you've seen here.

Easter Island honeymoon - Adam & Krista

We went to Easter Island or Rapa Nui as it is called in the native language, Rapa Nui by the Rapa Nui people. We posted a bunch of photo sets on this blog. The 1st link will be a SET with photos you can choose individually. The 2nd link will be a SLIDESHOW of the same pix at 5 second intervals.
We had a great time, please take some time to look at the pictures if you're curious about Easter Island or our honeymoon or both. The most famous attractions are the Moai slideshow . We flew there (slideshow). It took over 24 hours to get there and over 53 hours to get back.

Here are some shots of Adam and Krista (slideshow) on Easter Island enjoying their honeymoon. We ate a lot of interesting food (slideshow) and Krista cooked for us as well (always delicious).

We stayed at some comfortable places (slideshow).

We arrived during their big festival celebrating the Rapa Nui culture, called Tapati (slideshow).

We wore our Food Shark uniforms (slideshow) to a few places on the island. We also made a video using the original version of Food Shark shark theme song found in an old email.

We got new hiking shoes (slideshow) for the trip. We had an amazing personal tour of the Island by a man named Patricio (slideshow).

There were more trees (slideshow) than we had expected. There were also many beautiful plants (slideshow).

We learned that Easter Island has one of the best flags (slideshow) in the world. The landscape (slideshow) was genuinely breathtaking.

There are more horses (slideshow) on Easter Island than people.

There were a couple morning markets (slideshow) with fresh fruits, vegetables, meats etc.

We rode bikes (slideshow) all over the island. Here is a video of the bike ride. WARNING, may take awhile to load and it is about 13 minutes long.

Easter Island is surrounded by the Mighty Pacific (slideshow) so of course we saw a few boats (slideshow).

We encountered a few interesting vehicles (slideshow) in our travels on the Island. Easter Island also has a large dog (slideshow) population which survive in large part to handouts from tourists.

Took a few LONG exposures (slideshow) at night.

Encountered some interesting architecture (slideshow) ancient, old and modern. Almost all of the little markets had signs made by Coca Cola (slideshow).

Of course we brought back some souvenirs (slideshow). Had an incredible time, wouldn't trade it for the world. WARNING - Easter Island may be the most expensive place on Earth. We loved our vacation from life and Food Shark but we're happy to return to work?? Remember, you can revisit the blog and watch more slideshows and videos. We know there's a lot of info here. Thanks for reading.

Food Shark trip to the Bahamas 2010

Hi folks, in June 2010, we went to the Bahamas for a vacation.
Nassau was ok, but Eleuthera is where it's at.
The island is around 110 miles long and you can walk from the Caribbean side to the Atlantic side in many parts. It's fairly undeveloped and we're pretty sure we'll come back. A friend let us stay at her house and we have had a wonderful, exciting and relaxing time. We work pretty hard most of the year, so it's good to escape for a week or 2 here and there. Here are a few slideshows from this vacation.
Adam and Krista in vacation mode.
Food - mostly fried local seafood including conch but some that Krista made while we were on Eleuthera.
Swimming beachy stuff + other beautiful scenery.
Desolation (I, Adam, dig this one a lot).
Exciting Bahamian vehicles.
Artistic shots with flotsam and jetsam on the beaches.
Images which help show some of the character of the Bahamas.
Night time shots from the back porch. 15 second exposures. Super grainy and kinda daylighty looking at times.

Food Shark vacation to Yucatan peninsula Mexico 10/2009

We went on a much needed vacation to the sleepy diving community of Paamul near Tulum, Mexico. We went with our dear friend Tobin. We came here 2 years ago with Tobin as well. Here is a slideshow of highlights from our trip this year (October 2009).
Here is a slide show of food only which we consumed or came into contact with.
