Staying At Villa Sunshine-Cape Town

Not every travel day is filled with glamorous adventure. Although our time in Zimbabwe started out with a relaxing morning by the pool, the rest of the week was a flurry of activity. When our plane landed in Cape Town, South Africa, I was not feeling my best. Exhausted and worn out, I required rest.…
Amulonga Restaurant-Victoria Falls-Zimbabwe

Staying at Oasi-Caye Caulker

When it comes to accommodations, we can go either way. For short trips and trips where we are crazy busy running around, a clean, safe place to fall into bed is all that is really needed. For a more relaxed trip where we know we will be spending a decent amount of time at our…
