Category: Carpe Diem
Carpe Diem literary means to “Seize the Day”. Live each day to its fullest, adventures await. Every day is special! Life is too short not to enjoy every single moment. Celebrate life, the universe and everything!
Birding
Who knows better how to carpe diem than our friends the birds? To quote Matthew from the bible
Look at the birds in the sky! They don’t plant or harvest. They don’t even store grain in barns. Yet your Father in heaven takes care of them.
Go check out our birding fun. So many people have started birding during this pandemic, because it is great for social distancing.
Snorkeling
No need to explain why snorkeling is great for social distancing also. Since I hate snow, it totally is my favorite winter sport. I have written about snorkeling in Sian Ka’an, Mexico and on Oahu. Carpe Diem!
