Day 34 of Miami to Alaska Family Road Trip: Sedona’s Wonderful Red Rocks


Sedona, Arizona is one of our favorite places in the whole United States so on the 34th day of our family road trip we ventured to see some of the things that makes this place so special.   Here’s seven things that we think make Sedona a terrific family destination:

- The red rock canyons.  These rocks are everywhere and they especially shine “reddest” at sunrise and sunset, the best time to photograph or video tape them.

- Slide Rock Park.  This park features a large spring that has natural water chutes that propel you through the rocks.  One part of the park also features a canyon with 12 foot cliffs that you can dive into the water from.  The water is frigid but your body will get used to it.  Diving from the 12-foot cliff is scary and exhilarating at the same time.

- An easy and great place to hike and bike.  The hiking paths in particular are not hard and offer beautiful walks right up to the red canyons.  This is like walking among the lower parts of the Grand Canyon. (more…)

Whales, Glaciers and Disney Parks: PapiBlogger Travels from Miami to Alaska for Summer’s Ultimate Family Road Trip

A year after logging 12,000 miles with my family during a summer odyssey that took us through 33 states, social media entrepreneur Manny Ruiz – aka the “PapiBlogger” – is headed on the road again.

We'll be getting an in-depth view at Disney's terrific resorts during our stays in Orlando, our cruise and Disneyland.

Starting July 8, PapiBlogger (http://www.papiblogger) will be “doing Disney” coast-to-coast and beyond the blue horizon plus several of America’s national parks during a 37-day adventure that will touch 18 states from Florida to Alaska.

During the epic family trip, geography and science class will be in session for Jonathan (11), Elena (7) and Briani (2). They will see glaciers, search for whales and bears as well as marvel at mountains and valleys on a Disney Cruise Line® vacation to Alaska (more…)

Miami to Alaska Family Road Trip: A Look at this Year’s PapiMobile

For the second year in a row PapiBlogger is taking to the road for an epic family trip that we believe has got to qualify us for the Guinness Book of World Record’s feat for most miles driven by a blogger with his wife and three young kids.  Well, there may not be an official record for such a thing but  I have to think that adding last year’s 12,000 miles plus this year’s anticipated mileage will qualify us for some sort of wild family prize.
