As many people know, our family completes a Lego build together every winter holiday season. Last year I put together a time lapse video of the build. Several people ask me if I planned to do a similar thing this year, which I wasn’t going to do. Based on those conversations, I did a short video demonstrating our progress. As you’ll see, we built the Lego Grand Piano this year, which works as a player piano.
Favorite Grand Cayman Pool Spot
MJ and I have used these two loungers more times than I want to admit….. They sit at a wonderful spot on the Kimpton Seafire Resort property.
Paradise
I miss traveling to wonderful spots around the world….. How about you? Let’s hope we can start to get out and about in late 2021. In the meantime, I keep using past photos as reminder of good times.
I took this drone photo on Seven Mile Beach in Grand Cayman back in early 2020, right before the world got shut down. By the way, this specific resort is the Kimpton Seafire Resort and Spa.
Seafire Christmas
I took this photo last December while staying at the Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman. You can’t see it, but just to the right (off the photo), they had a life size gingerbread house setup that you could walk into to get holiday favored and themed cocktail.
Seven Mile Beach
I took this photo looking down on Seven Mile Beach in front of the Seafire Resort on Grand Cayman.

Seafire At Dusk
Short post tonight….. Here is a photo I took at the Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman. This is an amazing spot to be anytime of day. This just happens to be at dusk….wish I could go back.

Grand Hotel
This extraordinary and historical hotel is located in a very special place for me. This is the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island…. I took this photo last month on our trip to Michigan. This island is another great spot to visit, if you haven’t already.

Post Cayman Sunset
This is the beautiful sky about 20 minutes after sunset in Grand Cayman. The amazing pool and resort are pretty good as well. Good times……right now I’d love to be back at this spot. But like everyone else I’m doing my part to limit the spread of COVID-19….so no travel for a while….

Seafire Sunrise
Here is an early morning photo from in front of the Kimpton Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman. I started shooting right before sunrise and kept shooting until well after. I’m not sure how much I like this photo. Is it a okay photo or an terrible one? Thoughts?

Seafire's Fire
At the Kimpton Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman, they have this outdoor fire pit that they have going every night. It seems weird to me to have a fire going at a spot that is over 80 degrees year-round. I suppose, it looks nice. Regardless, I captured this photo of it with the resort, pool and Caribbean Sea in the background.

Seven Mile Beach Sunset
I know I’ve been absent from my blog and social media lately. No excuses. So, to make it up to you, here is a sunset from tonight. MJ and I watched this baby set at Coccoloba’s on Seven Mile Beach in Grand Cayman. Of course, I captured the sunset with three different cameras (Sony A7riv, DJI Pocket Osmo and my iPhone). Here is the Sony version.
Seafire Resort
Short post tonight….. here is a nice photo of the Kimpton Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman.

Seafire
I took this photo of the Kimpton Seafire Resort in Grand Cayman back in December. I loved the color of the ocean and sky in this photo. I took this at sunset right before we joined our group for dinner.

Mid-life Crisis
First the photo…. I took this at the @seafireresort in Grand Cayman at the beginning of December. This exterior path ran along the building to the restaurant at the end. But enough about that….
Second…the Mid-life Crisis…. At least that’s what I’m calling it. Watch the video below for more details.

Seafire Pool
MJ and I spent some time recently at a Seafire Resort in the Cayman Islands. That trip and my crazy work schedule have been the cause of my online absence. I’m sorry about that.
I took this photo at sunset with the ocean and the sunset in the background. This resort had an amazing pool, which we took full advantage of during our time at the resort.

Central Market Hall
During our recent trip, we had a great few days in Budapest Hungary. This is a wonderful city. One of our stops around the city was this amazing market. You could buy just about anything you want and the place was packed with people. The building was completed in 1897.

Mechanical Wonder
During our trip to Mexico we stayed at Grand Palladium Resort north of Cancun…I’ve mentioned this before. Inside the resort, there are a number of restaurants, bars and stores all of which have a different theme/design. One of them is a Café and deli, which was designed as a urban contemporary look that included this giant floor to ceiling mechanical clock. This clock ran all kinds of pulleys and cables that helped other objects in the Café run/move. In fact, the mannequin on the bike in the left corner of this photo was run by the clock. His legs pumped the bike peddles that turned the wheels. I liked the clock and the entire Café.

Sunrise Over The Beach
What can I say about this photo that is doesn’t say by itself? Probably nothing!!! Let’s just sit back and enjoy it. I took this photo, along with a bunch of others, with my drone flying back and forth low along the beach. I love the colors and feel of it.

Blue Spot
This is the infinity pool at the Grand Palladium Resort north of Cancun Mexico. I took this photo just after sunrise. I was one of only a few people who climbed out of bed to see this beautiful scene. What a great morning…. Can I please go back????

Beach Pool
This will be my 2nd post from Mexico in a row. I usually mix them up a little. I took this photo with my drone hovering over the bar looking down this extremely long pool towards the beach. We had an okay sunrise that morning…but it was way better then the couple days of rain prior to this morning. We spent many hours at this spot lounging in and out of the pool. Good times at the Grand Palladium!!!
