BEST DAY IN ICELAND | Black Diamond Beach & Skogafoss Waterfall
Iceland day 3 // The Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon at the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier is incredible! We started across the street from the glacial lagoon at Black Diamond Beach. Chunks of glacier from the river wash up onto the black sand, and it is so beautiful! We also tried some Icelandic hotdogs, and finished the day at the massive Skogafoss Waterfall!

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started traveling full-time January 10, 2016. While daily vlogging was not the original plan, we were having way too many cool experiences not to share every single day! Now travel vlogging is our full-time gig and we feel like we have the greatest job in the world! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
We’ve pulled inspiration from several of our favorite travel vloggers on YouTube, such as: +CaseyNeistat +FunForLouis +Jon Olsson +Mr Ben Brown , and any other talented travel vloggers that YouTube’s algorithm will hopefully connect us with ;)

Best Kept Secret Calgary Day Trip - Cool Little Towns
Looking for cool, unusual and one of a kind finds? Head south of Calgary to the picturesque rolling hills with a Rocky Mountain backdrop. Explore the cool little towns of Turner Valley, Black Diamond and Longview.
The Black Diamond Mine
The Black Diamond Mine - one of the oldest mines in the region - is so old that its early history has been mostly lost to time. However, it is believed that the site was originally discovered by a group of Chilean miners. It has a fairly unique structure in that it is a vertical shaft plunging down into the Black Diamond Ridge and four separate and distinct tunnels intersect with the shaft at varying levels down the face of the ridge. Picture an E with an extra leg sticking out and you'll have the rough idea.To see inside the lower levels, follow the link below for the video of our return visit:
Best Destinations for Kitesurfing Fanatics
Are you the kind of traveler who yawns at the thought of snowboarding down a black diamond? Do you get bored thinking about parasailing yet again? then it’s time to think about a kiteboarding vacation. Here are some sunny destinations to keep in mind.
1. Nabq Bay, Egypt
Get ready to pick up some speed, kitesurfing at Nabq Bay. The wind is steady and strong, so you shouldn’t have any trouble pulling off some slick moves as you glide across the water. When you need a break, Nabq Bay offers world class snorkeling and plenty of historical sightseeing.
2. Dreamspot Eco Kite Lodge, Sri Lanka
You’ll need to make reservations to check out this beautiful kiteboarding resort, but if you want a chance to get a crash course in kitesurfing, then this remote location in the Sri Lankan wilderness might just be your best bet.
3. Tarifa, Spain
This Spanish kitesurfing capital boasts around 300 days of sunshine every year, which makes it one of Europe’s most popular kiteboarding destinations. Sure, it might be a bit crowded during the summer, but Tarifa is also about as perfect a spot as you could hope for.
4. Maui, Hawaii
The Hawaiian destination is known as perhaps the best kitesurfing spot in the entire world. There’s even a specific beach named Kite Beach, that is perfect for kiteboarding. Even if you’re a kitesurfing rookie, there are plenty of chances to learn in Maui.
5. Ulcinj, Montenegro (ul-cinch)
This nine-mile stretch of pristine beach in the beautiful Mediterranean country of Montenegro is a great location for veteran and amateur kitesurfers alike. Not only is Montenegro an affordable Mediterranean option, but the Ulcinj locals have a worldwide reputation for being extremely welcoming to tourists.
6. Taveuni Island, Fiji
Everyone from beginners to seasoned pros will find some kitesurfing opportunities at Fiji’s Taveuni Island. The wide open expanse of the islands lets rookies get their feet wet while still offering plenty of room for seasoned veterans to tackle more challenging terrain should they so desire.
7. La Ventana, Baja California
If you’re hoping to try out kitesurfing and you’re not sure you’d like an entire vacation focused on the sport, then head to La Ventana, Baja California’s scenic, little beach town that’s always offering a full array of beach-friendly activities. The kitesurfing is great, but so is the snorkeling, diving, fishing, and lounging.
8. Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
Feel free to bring the whole family to Grand Cayman in the beautiful Cayman Islands. It is filled with activities designed to soothe every visitor. Meanwhile, you can enjoy the steady winds and gorgeous waters on the back of your kiteboard.
9. Tatajuba, Brazil
Rookie kitesurfers will find themselves delighted by the offerings at Tatajuba, Brazil. The shallow water location also lends the region a steady stream of wind that makes for some safe and exciting kiteboarding opportunities. Perhaps best of all, the location isn’t as crammed with tourists as a lot of others, which means you can really stretch out and enjoy yourself.
10. Jupiter, Florida
You don’t even need to leave the contiguous United States to get some great kitesurfing action under your belt. Jupiter is one of the state’s most beloved beach towns, which means there are also plenty of restaurants and attractions that are sure to keep you busy.

Best Ski Resorts for late season SNOW & spring SKING | Travel Nfx
Book Your Hotel at very cheap Price - 10 Best Ski Resorts for late season snow & spring skiing
Afraid you might have missed your chance to hit the slopes this year? Fear not! Here are 10 of the best resorts still open if you're looking for some late season ski action, plus tips on spring (and summer) skiing...
Why go skiing in spring-summer?
It's cheaper. Late season is low season, so lift passes and accommodation cost considerably less than during mid-winter. Read more of our tips on how to save on ski holidays here.
It’s quieter. Skiing and snowboarding in late season means fewer people on the slopes, and less chance of lift queues.
It’s sunnier! (Generally-speaking) expect more sun, longer daylight hours, and longer lift opening times; enjoy the bbqs and beer drinking that takes place on the sun terraces of slope-side cafes and bars. However, it's not uncommon to get heavy snow even in May, so always come prepared for cold weather!
Tips for late season trips
Head high, or head north. The higher the altitude of the ski area, the colder it is, and therefore the longer the snow lasts, so ideally, aim for resorts that have skiing at 2000m or above.
If the resort incorporates a glacier, even better, as this may mean that skiing is possible almost all year round – albeit on limited terrain and short pistes.
Keep an eye on snow depths which can vary considerably from year to year and can make all the difference between a short or long ski season. Check your chosen resort’s website for the latest.
Top 10 late season ski resorts
1. Val Thorens, France
As Europe’s highest ski resort, most of the skiing here is over 2000m, which means the snow keeps cooler for longer and the lifts keep running until early May. Part of the huge Three Valleys ski area, Val Thorens is an excellent bet for good snow conditions even late in the season. You won't run out of alternative activities either: from mountain biking on the snow to paragliding way above it. LibreEnvol Paragliding School is located at Chalet Caron in Val Thorens and offers tandem paragliding from the top of the Boismint run. Looking for somewhere off the beaten slope? We've rounded up some of the best kept secrets in ski holidays to France.
2. Riksgransen, Sweden
Lying 200km above the Arctic Circle on the border with Norway, Riksgransen is one of the world’s most northerly ski resorts and offers the opportunity to ski in the Land of the Midnight Sun, as the days barely get dark in the summer. The best conditions are found later in the season, the lifts here don’t stop running until the end of June and people have been known to ski in shorts! Grab a self-catered stay at Katterjokk Apartments near the Katterjåkk Train Station and you'll be less than 500 metres from the slopes.
3. Åre, Sweden
Sweden’s number one resort, which also claims to be northern Europe’s largest and most advanced, Åre boasts a season that starts in November and lasts until May. With 100 pistes to enjoy plus night skiing too, Åre is a popular choice for late season skiing. Unwind at the Fjällgården Spa and you can lounge in an outdoor hot tub at 556 metres, overlooking the valley and the frozen Åresjön Lake. Bringing your own skis?
4. Tignes, France
A ski resort with a glacier, winter sports enthusiasts can continue skiing until early May in the main resort at Tignes. Summer skiing on the glacier then starts in June, which offers an impressive 20kms of runs and a vertical drop of over 750m. Tignes is split into three areas but if you're looking for on-hand après-ski drinks, The Marmot Arms in Le Lac is a fun choice with plenty of Happy Hour deals, just next to the Palafour chairlift.
5. Zermatt, Switzerland
This famous Swiss ski resort within sight of the mighty Matterhorn has lifts that take you up to 3899m, and offers skiing till early May before the summer skiing begins on the glacier, meaning that Zermatt is one of the few, truly year-round ski destinations in the world. As a result, the car-free town centre is always full of bustling Alpine atmosphere, with a good range of restaurant and accommodation options. If you're coming by road, park in the village of Tasch, 5 miles away and catch the free shuttle.
6. Saas Fee, Switzerland
With a ski area that sits between 1800m and 3500m and has access to a glacier, Sass Fee offers late-season skiers plenty of snow, whilst at the same time has the chocolate-box charm not always found in other high-altitude resorts. Found near the Italian border, it's also home to Switzerland's highest restaurant, DrehrestaurantAllalin at Mittelallalin (catch the Metro Alpin from Saas Fee) which revolves to give you a ever-changing panorama of mountains as you sip your glühwein, and even claims a view as far as Milan on a clear day.
7. Livigno, Italy
8. Gassan, Japan
9. Whistler-Blackcomb, Canada
10. Mammoth, California
