Today was an absolutely amazing day, by far the best of our vacation thus far. I'm so glad it was on Liam's birthday.

Welcome to my travel blog! My husband Jeff and I waited six years after getting married before taking a vacation. It might have had something to do with being poor graduate students, or perhaps that we drove a 1991 Geo Metro. Anyway, we've tried to make up for it since.

Thanks!

Not a Crested Auklet ... it is an American Black Oystercatcher
