Life's a beach and then you die? Lumahai Beach; Kauai, Hawaii

Life's a beach and then you die? Lumahai Beach; Kauai, Hawaii, a photo by Sam Antonio Photography on Flickr.

Lumaha'i Beach is located on Kauai’s northern shore, but do not let the picturesque views fool you. It is a beach best viewed from a distance rather than swimming. The beach has no protective reef, making the coast totally exposed to the open ocean. Nicknamed "Luma-die" by the locals, the slippery rock ledges, powerful waves, strong undertow and currents make this one of Kauai’s most dangerous beaches. I played it safe and went to the beach with my camera and left the swimming trunks behind.

Was there every a time you felt endangered while photographing?

Happy Travels!

Being a tourist in my own hometown - Oceanside Pier, CA

Being a tourist in my own hometown, a photo by Sam Antonio Photography on Flickr.

Robert Frost wrote that, “Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in.”

So here I am playing tourist again in my hometown of San Diego, California.

The Oceanside Pier, located in Oceanside, in northern San Diego County, California, is one of the longest wooden piers on the western United States coastline at 1,954 feet.

Have you been to San Diego? If you have, what was your favorite travel moment?

Happy Travels!
