It was beautiful in Deer Valley. The mountains, the sky, the air, the snow were pleasant. The sun really changed the mountains beauty everyday. Mountain air is good for your soul.
There was one day the sun came out while snowing. It made snowflakes sparkle in the air, the snow on the ski runs sparkle as well. I thought I was truly in magical place of winter wonderland. That day was actually a new year’s eve day, it’s just perfect feeling to welcome 2013.
There was one day of heavy snow and it was a little hard to see, but the snowflakes were perfect, as if they were drawn. I haven’t seen anything like that before. Snow is truly exhilarating.
We enjoyed our new adventure-snowmobile.
My little girl made a snow angle in the fresh snow.
The photo below was the view from our flight. Just stunning!
Have a wonderful weekend to you all! xo…Hanh
Nine of us, my family and my nephews and nieces, had a lovely time in Turks & Caicos. One week living the island life was amazing as you’ve seen in some of the photos in the last two posts.
One day we took a seven hour adventure trip on the sea…
We were on board and excited for the adventure as much as my little girl was.
Our first top was for snorkeling.
Conch hunting at southern tip of TCI. It’s three feet deep. I love the color contrast in this picture!
My little girl tried to pull out a live conch from his shell.
Time for lunch. Our boat moved on and stopped at Fort George for picnic. It was a perfect setting- so relaxing, island living. We had fresh conch ceviche and grilled lobsters.
A quick tour of Big Water Cay, then we stopped at Seashell beach where there is a ton of seashells along the shore.
Having Enough of seashells, we moved on to Little Water Cay on the other side of Seashell beach to look for Iguanas on Iguana island.
At Iguana island, watching the sunset was a joy.
At dusk, relaxing and enjoying ourselves while our dinner was being prepared. 
Thank you everyone for visiting. I hope this post will inspire your travels. xo…Hanh

I love the color contrast in the below pictures. It was taken while we were conch hunting at southern tip of TCI.
Peaceful scene at Bugaloo’s restaurant.
Sunset at Little Water Cay (Iguana island).
Island’s comfy chic outfit. This is called ‘packing light’-borrowed a shirt from my hubby to wear out for lunch and as a beach cover. Lunch at Da Conch Shack. I loved its atmosphere and the plantain fries were so yummy!
The pictures below were around Grace Bay beach.
Thank you everyone for visiting! Have a lovely day! xo…Hanh
We just arrived in Turks and Caicos today. It’s one of my favorite places for a beach vacation. These pictures were taken today. Can’t wait to have some fun here and I promise to take lots of pictures to share.
This was above the Turks and Caicos while we were landing.

Here is a photo diary from the Turks and Caicos. It is a paradise island on the Caribbean. We enjoyed it so much. I love the contrast of the blue and white colors here. So stunning!!
Our kids enjoyed their time with a cousin from California.
They loved to sit in the front of the boat on snorkeling trips. They’re so brave to jump off a 6 yard high diving board from the boat.
The boat captain got some conches and we ate fresh sashimi style as well as ceviche style. It was delicious.
Here are some conches, after they were cleaned. Just beautiful shell!!
Our snorkeling trips through Caicos Dream Tours and Island Vibes Tours. Staying at Grace Bay Club.

For the first time, we went on the Fantasy, from the Disney Cruise Line on the Caribbean. The ship is 7 months old. It’s beautiful. There were so many fun, intelligent activities for kids and parents. The Disney company is smart and they know what children and parents like. My family and I enjoyed it so much. Highly recommend it. One of the greatest parts was the Pirate In the Caribbean party, ending with fireworks in the middle of the sea. It was amazing. The ship stopped at St Martin island (owned by Holland and France), St Thomas, St John (USV island), and Castaway Cay (Disney private island in the Bahamas). Here are some random pictures from the cruise:

Victoria city is the capital city of British Colombia, Canada, and is located on the southern tip of Vancouver island. It’s a nice city to hang out in for a couple days. The fun area is around the Inner Victoria harbor, the Fairmont Empress hotel, and the British Columbia parliament building. The parts that we enjoyed the most were the experience of high tea with our kids at the Fairmont Empress hotel, visiting Butchart gardens, and whale watching.
Butchart gardens offers fifty acres of floral finery. It has the most beautiful gardens. One of my favorite is the Japanese garden. I always love visiting Japanese gardens. It’s such a serene landscape and gives you a feeling of calm and peace. Here are some pictures of Butchart gardens.
It was our first time to do whale watching. It was an exiting trip to go out on the ocean and watch those wild big whales.
Thank you everyone for visiting and have a wonderful day!! xo…Hanh
Vancouver is a very pretty, clean, big, and fun city. It seems to me 50% Asian on the street and sometimes you will spot young people in Japanese street-style. Asian culture is influencing this city, especially food. You also will see many Chinese Warrior statues around the town. Talking about food, it is very good here. There are a lot of food trucks around ( they even have a Dim Sum food struck) and you’ll be surprised how good their food is. Here are some restaurants I highly recommend. Kamei Royale-it’s casual Japanese cuisine, while Miku and Hapa Izakaya are more unique. Kirin is a Chinese restaurant specializing in dim sum style- best quality dim sum. Cin Cin is a great Italian wood fired cucina, if you’re tired of Asian food. Western style restaurants around Vancouver Convention Center have good food but not excellent, although they have a beautiful view of waterfront and harbor (fun area). Oh! Don’t miss Bella Gelateria, a ice-cream store, it has got 2012 best ice-cream award in Florence Ice-cream Festival. I gained 6 pounds because of their ice-cream, my favorite flavor was black sesame-so yummy! Also, I really like the modern architecture here, there are many cool buildings around. Vancouver is a fun city and there are a lot of cool activities for you to do. You could get on “Hop-on Hop-off” buses (it’s everywhere), harbor cruises, seaplanes tour, river rafting, whale watching,..or spend your day at Grouse Mountain (great zip-lining here).
Vancouver harbor at Canada Place and Convention Center. It's a great fun and pretty area to hang out.
The view of Vancouver city and its harbor from the other side, when we biked on Sea Wall trail (10km-about 6miles) around Stanley Park. Lion Gate bridge.
Different view of famous Lion Gate bridge.
The city reminds me of New York city but smaller. You will see many Chinese Warrior statues around the town.
We spent our day at the Grouse Mountain-the peak of Vancouver. There was still some snow when we were there. While my kids stood on the snow, my little girl said: "It's miracle that it still has snow in July". Actually, It's so cool to see snow in July.
The Eye of The Wind. It's 20 stories high and sits on top of the Grouse Mountain. It's the best spot for seeing the stunning panoramic views as you see in the picture above.
Thank you everyone for reading and have a happy Sunday and a wonderful week ahead!! xo…Hanh
