Ballet Folklórico de México

It was founded in 1952 by Amalia Hernández and it is a breathtaking spectacle of dance, music, history and color.
I saw it in McCarter Theatre and now I am a fan!

Niagara Falls

...from Canada side

Bright light in Philadelphia

This is one of the cities that surprised me: for its history, the streets full of life, the marina area, the great murals (amazing pieces of art)...

Orange creations

Sequoia national park - CA

This is the park with the giant trees (and believe me, they are really big).
  




To show the size of the tree. This one is the General Sherman.

The baby bears...

And their mother...

Hiking in NJ/PA

This is the week of parks, in my blog.
The 1st one to be showed is Delaware Water Gap, which is located on the border of Pennsylvania and New Jersey (divided, once again, by the Delaware river).
There are different activities that can be done, such as rafting, canoeing, fishing and hiking.
I went for hiking and chose the most difficult trail (5 & 6). The view was worth it!

Grand Canyon

I visited Grand Canyon last Spring and it was far beyond my expectations!
Its size (huge place), the amazing colors, bright light, wonderful sunset, Colororado river views really put it on the top of my favorite places!

One day, I hope to go back there!
