When I Reminisce Over You...Chile 2003

Today marks the eight-year anniversary of our honeymoon trip to Chile.  Even though Scarlett and I were married in June of 2003, we decided to take an extended trek four months later to visit her mother's family in Santiago and Valparaiso.  Our true "honeymoon" included a week-long stay in Easter Island.  For some reason around this time of year I get all nostalgic for our adventure, so this time I figure I'd share some pictures.  Here's to eight years of adventure with you Scarlett, may we continue to have many more. - G

Guatemala 2008

We spent a week in Guatemala this February to celebrate the marriage of Scarlett's sister, Grissell, to her (now husband) Didier. From the minute that we landed in Guatemala City, the vacation began - Didier's family was super accommodating and friendly and they took us to some of the most beautiful places that their country offers. Below are some brief snapshots from our travels. Thanks to the newlywed couple, their family and friends for such a memorable trip.

The above video was shot as Diego got his second wind late in the night. Glow sticks and funny hats were handed out and a Shakira song dropped in sync with a smoke machine - what more could a two-year old want.
