One of Mexico’s Best-Kept Secrets: The City of Querétaro (In Pictures)
July 9, 2019

If you’ve been following this blog, you’d know that my daughter and I traveled to Mexico back in May. We spent two weeks in several cities, starting in Mexico City (pics HERE) and visiting its Historic Center, the Museo Nacional de Arte (pics HERE) and Teotihuacán (pics HERE). The plan was to head west to […]
The holy city of Teotihuacán (‘the place where the gods were created’) is situated some 40+ km northeast of Mexico City. Built between the 1st and 7th centuries A.D., it is characterized by the vast size of its monuments, the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, laid out on geometric and symbolic principles. I […]
Now, anyone who knows me knows I love a good art museum. Wherever I travel, one of the first things I check for is if they have an art museum nearby. That said, during my first visit to Mexico City with my wife back in 2015 (check out the photo gallery HERE), I made sure […]

A painter paints, a writer writes, a dancer dances, and so on. Photographers take photographs. However, it isn’t as easy as opening a Word document on one’s computer, dusting off a fresh canvas or turning on some music. A photographer needs to go where there are things to photograph. So as my weekend freed up, […]
This past month, I returned to Mexico City and its historic main square – the Zócalo. My wife and I journeyed there in the spring of 2015 as I had two documentary films I directed playing at the Shorts Mexico Film Festival. It was the very first trip my wife and I took on our […]
For those of you who don’t know, I grew up a hardcore metalhead (a lover of heavy metal music, not a metallurgist). The early 80s (when I was a teenager) brought on the dawn of thrash metal acts Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax and so many others. It was a good time to be a metalhead […]
Back in November, my daughter and I were in Puerto Rico for a memorial service for my wife (her mother) who passed away back in September. We found ourselves with a free day so we decided to drive from Rincón down to San Germán to spend a few hours visiting the Porta Coeli Church (El […]
The Hallowed Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, Spain (In Pictures)

The last stop in our eight-city tour of Spain back in December was the historic city of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, Spain – the land where my mother was born. It is there that my daughter and I decided to spend our first Christmas after my wife passed away back in September. Looking back, […]
Record Store Day was conceived in 2007 at a gathering of independent record store owners and employees as a way to celebrate and spread the word about the unique culture surrounding nearly 1400 independently owned record stores in the US and thousands of similar stores internationally. The first Record Store Day took place on April […]
Earlier this week, I shared some photographs I snapped of the historic Old Town of Santiago de Compostela, in Galicia, Spain. Now before I get to the photographs from the Cathedral (which was consecrated back in 1211!), I wanted to share with you the second most visited location in this hallowed city. It isn’t another […]
