A continuation of the original main Burnsland site, Adventures by Burnsland is the new home for photos and stories from our adventures.
Adventures can happen someplace far away, or they can happen at home, too, or anywhere inbetween. For us, adventures happen wherever we happen to be, and that makes life fun. Join along with us in the adventures of life!
Trees along the trail to Mānoa Falls with a mountain in the distance on the island of Oʻahu in Hawaiʻi.
During our 2023 Hawaiʻi trip, we took a hike through a rainforest to Mānoa Falls. The falls were nice (see part 5 of the trip report for more), but the scenery along the way was every bit as nice as the waterfall. I keep finding photos from our visit that I have not shared yet, and this was a good one.
Crosses top structures in a cemetery on the island of Cozumel in Quintana Roo, Mexico.
I was recently sprucing up the pages of our 2022 Disney Cruise. During that cruise, the ship docked at Cozumel. And during our wanderings, we came across an interesting cemetery. You can read all about it and see more photos in the post 2022 Disney Cruise Report Day 3 - Cemetery in Cozumel.
I went back to the photos I took from that trip, and I found this one that had not been included in the original post, and I thought it would be good to share here.
Spring Creek flows past Sellers Farm State Archaeological Area in Lebanon, Tennessee.
As you may recall from the earlier Sellers Farm post, I had gone there to see the native mound, but the path along Spring Creek turned out to be the bigger attraction to me. And it was a very photogenic creek, too.
Sometimes, I enjoy a good black and white photo, and I thought that one of these creek photos would be a good candidate for that.
Looking down on the coast of the Waikīkī area of the island of Oʻahu from the top of Diamond Head during our 2023 Hawaiʻi Trip.
As you may know, we climbed up Diamond Head, or Lēʻahi, one day during our trip, and the views from the top were amazing. It was a steep climb in some places, but it was worth it for what we could see.
There is so much to see in this view.
Last year, we visited Mammoth Cave National Park two different times. As you might imagine, our main goal there was to see some of the caves, and we went on two different cave tours. But we also took a little time to see some of the other sights of the area above ground.
As we were driving through the park area, Laura and I came across the Mammoth Cave Baptist Church.
The full Hawaiʻi 2023 Trip Report is now complete, with over 24,000 words and 150 photos! See the trip report and other posts from our trip at the Hawaiʻi 2023 page.
