As you all know, Ammon recently had his very first day of WORK at Nav Canada talking with real live pilots. His lovely girlfriend Sasha, sent us this audio recording from the ATIS (Automatic Terminal Information Service), which she called every 5 minutes just to hear his voice. […]
Everyone please help me wish my big brother Ammon a wonderful 36th birthday!!! Have I ever told you about this absurdly cool dude? Well, if you don’t know, Ammon rhymes with salmon, and he is one of the big stars of my “Sihpromatum” travel memoir series. Though I […]
Lately I’ve had a lot of readers asking me what my siblings have been up to since the family trip ended. “What are they doing now? Where do they live? Where did they end up?” I thought I would start with a quick blog from Ammon, since he […]
The adventure continues with Ammon and Sasha: Looking at a map the road south from Posadas follows the western border of Uruguay with multiple border crossings to choose from. As we were on a night bus it made some sense to stop at the furthest south crossing (more […]
Beach time with Ammon and Sasha: Having seen Salvador, we were ready to spend some time on the beach, not just see one in passing. The statement “I’m going to the beach” in Brazil brings up a whole lot of decision issues, like, “which beach?”. With thousands of […]
Continuing with Ammon and Sasha: So apparently my early trip planning wasn’t all that great. We rerouted once before and suddenly found ourselves needing to reroute again. This time it was to add places and try to kill time. With talk of meeting up with people along the […]
Brazil continues with Ammon and Sasha: 24 hours after getting back to Cuiaba we were leaving town on a bus heading to Goiania. When your bus is 15 hours long the last thing you really want is to make it longer so there was a lot of groaning […]
With nearly a year to travel around you might wonder why we are acting all rushed and taking weird border crossings. The reason was the Pantanal, the world’s largest wetland, located in the tri-border area of Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. The Pantanal is generally considered to be the […]
South America continues: From Samaipata we returned to Santa Cruz for another night and the following day caught a bus heading east to San Jose de Chiquitos. It is a hot, dusty little town and one of the most accessible on the historic Jesuit Missions circuit of Bolivia. […]
Ammon and Sasha’s trip continues: We made it in late to Santa Cruz on our flight so it wasn’t until the next day that we got a chance to step outside and see what we had gotten ourselves into. Having talked to many people over the years about […]
Ammon and Sasha’s adventure continues: We flew from Trinidad to Suriname to finally hit the mainland and officially start the South American portion of the trip. The initial plan was to see what the Guianas are all about and when ready continue south into the Brazilian Amazon. Of […]
Trinidad and Togo
Okay I said I was going to post Ammon and Sasha’s ongoing South America trip BUT there are so many good trips Ammon has done in the past year or two that need to be shared first……. Here you go enjoy the journey. – Savannah So I’m going […]
This story is much different from my usual travel posts. Today I am 37 weeks pregnant with our second son which means anytime in the next 5 weeks I can deliver at home. The countdown has official begun and I still haven’t shared my first home birth story! So […]
Ammon and Bre went on an adventure to see the Marshall Islands together. What a great brother sister team they could make on the amazing race. They did apply a few years back. Have a look at their video back then 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaOpNeIYu_M . This is what Ammon has to […]
