San Clemente California 🌊 Pier and Beach Walking Tour

What a beautiful Pier and Beach in San Clemente! One of our favorite happy hours is at Fishermans restaurant on the pier. On the left is Fishermans restaurant with a full dinner menu. On the right is Fishermans oyster & cocktails bar which has our favorite happy hour Mon-Fri . They have an spectacularly-priced dinner special for each day of the week, and drink specials too!

San Clemente is about half-way between Los Angeles and San Diego, in the southern-most part of Orange County. The Metrolink train station is just above the the boardwalk, so you can easily get to San Clemente from nearly anywhere! A fairly good sized parking lot is just above the boardwalk too. The boardwalk is known as the San Clemente beach trail and runs 1 mile north and 1.3 miles south of the pier, with an awesome wooden bridge (part of the trail) on the north side.

Just before the pier is Fisherman’s Galley, if you prefer fast food over the restaurant. At the end of the pier is a snack shop that also sells fast food, as well as small gifts.

It seems that every time we go to San Clemente, the water is usually calm. It makes our walk relaxing and enjoyable. We usually walk to the end of the pier enjoying the views of surfers, waves, and sometimes we spot dolphins swimming around. On our way back we enjoy the views of the hillside and houses. A long time ago, the city required all buildings to have red tile roofs. But later the requirement changed to be Spanish style construction which is quite enjoyable to see among the houses and neighborhood around San Clemente. It’s easy to see them from the pier. Afterward walking the pier, we walk down to the beach to walk alongside the water for a while, enjoying the sunset. Finally, walking under the pier to the other side just for fun.

We highly recommend visiting San Clemente Pier and Beach. Be sure to catch the happy hour at Fishermans restaurant to enjoy good food, drinks and ocean views at a great price. Been here before? Let us know what you liked best about it by leaving us a comment!

The Narrows ZION – will we survive?

Will we survive The Narrows hike in Zion National Park? That was the question in our head throughout the hike! LOL.

So we set off as prepared as would could be, with a walking stick ($10) rented from Zion Outfitters store at the Zion Visitor’s Center, our water shoes (link below), light jacket and lunch, and enjoyed a beautiful 7.5 hour hike up the Virgin River in Utah. This hike is called The Narrows because it’s a slot canyon that gets more and more narrow. You need to check the weather before you do this hike and be weary of any flash flood warnings. We recommend staying inside Zion so you can get an early start to beat the crowds. It’s best to call the park to check if the shuttle service is running the day you visit. Do not wear light sandals for this hike, you will tear up your feet or slip and twist or break your ankle! I wouldn’t recommend this long hike for kids or to try to carry babies on your back, you’l probably slip and hurt yourself. And, there are no restrooms on the trail.

With great September weather, we endured about 3.5 hours of this ‘bottom up’ hiking trail, crossing countless times across the river, some parts waist deep, and you’ll need to watch through video to see if we survived! LOL. It’s definitely a bucket-list hike you’ll need to do at least once in your life to feel complete. If you can’t, well just watch our video! We filmed the whole way, but clipped the best parts for the video. Please let us know if you’ve hiked this one, leave us a comment and Subscribe to help our channel grow ♥ thanks!

Horseshoe Bend PAGE, Arizona AWESOME SUNSET

Toly was ★COMPELLED★ to see the sunset at Horseshoe Bend Overlook in Page, AZ in the fall (autumn). September is a great month to go here, so we drove about 2 hrs 15 mins east of Zion National Park and into Page, Arizona (just below Lake Powell). Just off the 89S, there is a fairly sized parking lot for visitors of the Horseshoe Bend ($10 parking fee). After parking, we hiked down the trail for about 15mins to the Horseshoe Bend Overlook (basically, the edge of a 1000’ cliff). Quite a few people gathered together around the edge in an almost spiritual way, for the special event, the evening’s sunset. Below, we could see a spectacular view of the Colorado River below which wraps around in a horseshoe shape. We found our spot, snapped our selfies and favorite shots of the Horseshoe Bend and setup to relax and enjoy the peaceful and reflective moments before the sunset. It was beautiful. It had a special, calming way of making us feel grateful for the day we were given. It’s a place we might return to see again if we are nearby. We hope you enjoy the video. Please leave a comment below if you’ve ever been here, or had some special feelings or thoughts after experiencing a sunset here. Thanks.

Royal Gorge Bridge Park – a MUST VISIT in Colorado

We took a short road trip to the Royal Gorge Bridge Park in Cañon City, about 1.25 hrs south-west of Colorado Springs, Colorado (~2.5hrs South of Denver). It’s a beautiful bridge and amusement park with many interesting attractions within the park. For the general admission, you can: enter the park, visit/cross the Royal Gorge Bridge, enjoy many breathtaking views on the bridge and around the bridge at observation points, take a Aerial Gondola ride 2,200 feet across the Gorge and 1,200 feet across the Arkansas River, you can go to the Plaza Theatre, enjoy the Children’s Playland and Visitor Center. For extra cost you can enjoy: Zipline, a Skycoaster, and rock climb the Via Ferrata.

When we arrived it was clear but cloudy, with no rain. We were hoping we could spend the day to enjoy the park. However, the storm came in half-way across the bridge and the rain started to come down harder. We had to decide whether to keep going across or turn back. We were a little scared to get stuck on the far side of the bridge. But we decided to go for it, and cross the bridge. By the time we crossed, the rain was coming down harder and we needed to look for a place to stay dry and wait out the rain. We went into the Plaza Theatre for a little while to watch a couple of historical movies about the park and also enjoy some exotic bird shows that were presented. After a while we heard that the rain lightened up, but a lightning storm was about 5 mins away. We decided to RUSH back across the bridge to go home. The Royal Gorge Bridge, know as ‘America’s Bridge’ is 1000 feet above the Arkansas river and is one of the world’s highest suspension bridges, and straddles the canyon.

Although we didn’t get to enjoy all the activities at the park due to the winds and rain, they didn’t close, but we decided we’d have to come back someday to enjoy and experience the rest. It seems like, with clear, sunny weather you can probably spend the whole day enjoying all the activities. It really is a beautiful park. I can’t wait to go back again and enjoy the gondola ridge, zip lining, and maybe a little rock climbing on the Via Ferrata. I wouldn’t mind visiting the Beer Garden, bars and restaurants too!

Is Laughlin Nevada Open?

We were curious to know if Laughlin Nevada casinos were open again after the Covid Shutdown, so we decided to take a drive and find out. We went during Memorial Day weekend and checked into our favorite Harrah’s Laughlin Hotel & Casino. People were out and about, gambling, riding their jetskis and boats, our favorite restaurants like El Burro Borracho and Saltgrass Steak House were open. We had a lot of fun doing what we usually do, which is taking the water taxi to the Don Laughlin’s Riverside Resort casino and walking along the boardwalk back, stopping at all the casinos. The next day we drove over to the Bullhead, AZ side and enjoyed lunch at the River Dog Grill, went to the Veteran’s Memorial Park, and flew our drone around a bit before heading back to the Nevada side. So I would say that Laughlin is definitely Open and back in action! and we’re so happy about that! There are so many things to do in Laughlin. Below are some links that might help you plan your visit. Let us know how you like Laughlin in the comments below, and what are your favorite spots.
