GATOR BY THE BAY – ZYDECO, BLUES & CRAWFISH FESTIVAL

My mother was the one who first mentioned the Zydeco music festival in San Diego.  She loves to dance and over the years has learned salsa, west coast swing, night club 2-step, the waltz, and among others, zydeco.  The Zydeco Festival sounded interesting and fun, and since it fell on Mother’s Day weekend, we decided to go for a little weekend get-away and, of course, in celebration of Mother’s Day. 

We had a fantastic time.  That was a few years ago.  This year, we decided to go again for our 4^th annual “Gator By The Bay” Zydeco, Blues & Crawfish Festival in beautiful, temperate, San Diego.

Welcome to my travel blog!

Whether you have come here by accident or intentionally, I hope that you enjoy the travel experiences I have to share.  I know that travelling has given me some of the most meaningful memories, established bonds with people I adore and wouldn't have met otherwise, and has taught me many lessons.  Whether it has been a long weekend get-away, a two week vacation, or a couple of months, it always seems to be a lifetime condensed in a short time period.

I would like you to share this journey with me, to laugh, cry, fear, understand and experience all of the emotions, sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of various places.  If this does not happen, at the very least, I hope it inspires you to travel.
