March, 2010
Sydney, Australia- The Three Sisters are located in the Blue Mountains. A must see. Plan a day of hiking and check out all the beautiful canyons. The Legend of the Three Sisters:
The Aboriginal dream-time legend has it that three sisters, 'Meehni', 'Wimlah' and Gunnedoo' lived in the Jamison Valley as members of the Katoomba tribe.
These beautiful young ladies had fallen in love with three brothers from the Nepean tribe, yet tribal law forbade them to marry. The brothers were not happy to accept this law and so decided to use force to capture the three sisters causing a major tribal battle. As the lives of the three sisters were seriously in danger, a witchdoctor from the Katoomba tribe took it upon himself to turn the three sisters into stone to protect them from any harm. While he had intended to reverse the spell when the battle was over, the witchdoctor himself was killed. As only he could reverse the spell to return the ladies to their former beauty, the sisters remain in their magnificent rock formation as a reminder of this battle for generations to come.

Sydney, Australia. Craig with Palm Beach in the back round.
April, 2010
Puerto Galera White Beach in the Philippines. This beach is busy but can also be fun. Easy to get to from Manila and a favorite spot for locals.
September, 2009 - Los Angeles, California
Nick Laroche, Amber Corwin and Craig Heath hanging out at 'Pink Taco' in Century City, CA
January, 2009
One of the 3 Macau Venetian Hotel Pools in Macau, China. Macau is the "Las Vegas" of Asia. People from all over the world come to Macau to gamble. There are many hotels that are almost identical to the ones in Vegas. Cirque Du Soliel has a show in the Venetian hotel as well. It is a 1 hour ferry ride from Hong Kong. It was run by Portugal for 450 years so much of the old architecture looks European and then throw the Vegas look into the mix and you get a very interesting city...in China!
March, 2009
Cambodia. I absolutely loved Cambodia and I highly recommend that everyone goes there. The temples are amazing and the people are very friendly. Siem Reap is where most of the famous temples are located. I would recommend taking about 3 days to check them out. After 3 days you will have seen enough and be very satisfied. It is relatively inexpensive there so getting a hotel and a private driver is very economical. Many of the temples have been taken over by trees as you can see above. The history is fascinating.
March, 2009
Cambodia. Steffen, Craig and Matthias at Ankor Wat- One of the most famous places on earth to watch the sunrise. If you go to this amazing temple, be sure to get up and get a good spot to sit and watch the sunrise at Ankor Wat. Nobody likes getting up that early when on vacation, but it is truly worth it. Get there early so you can sit in front of the lily pond. There are cute shacks that have coffee and breakfast while you are waiting for the sun. Bring a light jacket and a flashlight (you will need one). Please remember your camera as well!!!
March, 2009
Cambodia. Another amazing temple.
April, 2009
Sanya Beach in Hainan, China
This absolutely gorgeous beach is located in mainland China. It is a one hour flight from Hong Kong but feels like another world. It is a very tropical island that is frequented by the rich and famous. Every designer hotel has a prime location on this long white sand beach. I stayed at the newly opened Ritz-Carlton hotel and had a gorgeous room with an ocean view. If you are in Hong Kong and want to get far away without going very far...check out Sanya!
April, 2009
Bohol, Philippines. These are the "Chocolate Mountains" and they are one of the very famous tourist spots of this very quaint island in the Philippines. The mountains go for miles and miles and are really a sight to see.
Bohol is considered the new "Borocay" since Borocay Island has become so popular with tourists from all over the world. Bohol is basically what Borocay used to be. I love it there and would go back in a heartbeat.
April, 2009
Bohol, Philippines
It is hard to tell from this photo, but I am actually standing in the middle of the ocean on a sandbar that goes for miles. I took a long walk from a tiny island along this gorgeous sandbar. I have to say that this is one of the most amazing things that I have ever done. My friends and I were the only ones walking there and it was really surreal to have ocean on either side of us and being able to walk in very beautiful, warm water for miles. I will definitely do this again in my lifetime!
April ,2009
Bohol, Philippines
The Tarsier-or "world's smallest Monkey" was rated the planet's cutest animal in 1997. This adorable creature is native to Bohol. There are farms where you can touch them and take pictures with them. This is definitely one of the things you must do while on the island.

May, 2009
Bangkok, Thailand
I love this city! There are other great photo's earlier in my travel log if you want to see more. Everyone has to go to Bangkok at least once. It is a thriving city full of mystery and fun. Take a ride down the river in a water taxi, have great nightlife, very nice people, amazing temples to see and great food!
May, 2009
Hong Kong
Can I just say.."I love Hong Kong!"
June, 2009
Marin County, California
This photo was taken during an amazing hike from Stinson Beach back up to Mt. Tamalpais. Marin County is directly over the Golden Gate Bridge and has nature, hiking, beaches, wine country, and just about anything that a person would enjoy. Yes, this is my home as well but I have to say it is absolutely amazing!!!
June, 2009
San Francisco, California
One of my favorite cities in the world! This photo was taken in Union Square, the most famous shopping areas of the city with one of the famous cable cars that San Francisco is known for.
June, 2009
Mill Valley, California
This is my backyard with a gorgeous view of Mt. Tamalpais and the San Francisco Bay. Life is good. :-)
June, 2009
Carmel, California
My friend Steffen took this amazing photo from the beach in Carmel. It should be a postcard!
June, 2009
Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, California
Craig and Steffen riding across the bridge. If you go to the city you MUST rent a bike and ride over the GG Bridge!
June, 2009
Yosemite Valley, California
One of the most beautiful places on earth. Yosemite is about a 4 hour drive from San Francisco and it is well worth the trip. If you go, do the 10-12 hour hike from the valley up to Half Dome. Yes, your legs will be tired, but you will see some of the most beautiful scenery of your life. There are gorgeous waterfalls everywhere. Be in good shape and ready for getting wet. There are sections where a good rain poncho comes in very handy-especially when you are climbing right next to the waterfalls. Bring lots of water and energy bars and pack a lunch.
June, 2009
Carmel, California
The Carmel Mission. The gardens are beautiful. You must drive about 2 miles out of town to visit and there is a small entrance fee but it is definitely worth the trip!
June, 2009
Yosemite Valley, California
This is Half Dome. Once you hike up to this section you must wear gloves and climb the cables that lead up to the top. For some people this is very scary. For others it is just plain exhilarating! I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this 10 hour hike.
June, 2009
Yosemite Valley, California
Craig climbing the cables up to Half Dome.
June, 2009
Yosemite Valley, California
One of the many gorgeous waterfalls in the valley.
June, 2009
Napa Valley, California
One of the most beautiful wine countries in the world. Napa Valley is only a 45 minute drive from San Francisco...and very well worth the trip. Hire a limo for the day and have them take you wine tasting. It will be a trip you never forget! Take a picnic and stop for a nice lunch along the way.
June, 2009
Opus One Winery in Napa, California
