Colts Neck To Cancun


CIMG2849Where in the world is Sarah Bandy again??

Well technically I’m back from vacation but I just wanted to share some photos of my trip to Mexico.

I really had a wonderful time in Cancun and the hotel as well as the staff at The Hyatt Cancun Caribe were wonderful.

Another reason why I think it is fantastic to live in Colts Neck is the close proximity to all major airports.

Newark International Airport is approximately a 35 minute drive from Colts Neck, allowing easy access to the destination of your dreams.

After five relaxing days and a renewed spirit, I am back and ready to conquer the real estate market.

Where In The World Is Sarah Bandy??? Part 3


CIMG2643Honduras is Known for their high quality tobacco, which are rolled everyday into exquisite top of the line cigars.

Back in the 1960’s granted by the Castro government, a few professional Cuban tobacco growers traveled to Honduras armed with the best Cuban tobacco seeds and assisted the planters on how to improve their trade. 

CIMG2641Today, Honduran cigars are of considered to be of excellent quality and sales are rated second place in the U.S. only after the Dominican Cigars.

A few of the Honduran cigars always makes the list on Cigar Aficionado’s top 100.

A trip here would not be complete without a visit to one of the best cigar stores.

Jose and Maria, owners of La Plazita Cigars were extremely helpful and patient, might I add, In teaching me the do’s and don’t of cigar purchasing.

CIMG2637

As I embrace the Cohiba box brand of cigars, Jose is quick to point out that I have great taste, unfortunately, Cohibas are Cuban made and rolled and not allowed to be brought into the United States.

Sorry Guys! I tried.

CIMG2638

Of course Maria insisted that I try first hand for myself the difference between a few of the Honduran brands.

Not being a smoker, this sounded crazy to me but as the saying goes: “When in Rome do as the Romans do”.

CIMG2644

As Maria packs away my selections, I leave with a wealth of information and a new respect for the industry.

I will never look at another cigar the same way ever again.

Curious as to which ones I purchased??????

You will have to ask me to find out

Where In The World Is Sarah Bandy? Part 2


CIMG2563After months of planning and preparation, the wedding has come and gone.

It was such a beautiful affair and I feel honored to have been invited.

The Middle Eastern flair that took place at “The Centro Social Hondureno Arabe”, is one that would surprise most American’s since Honduras is mostly a Latin community but for the few of you that know that I am of Middle Eastern decent, my family is one of the 220,000 Arabs that live and have businesses in San Pedro Sula.

CIMG2554I’ve had a wonderful time reconnecting with family and friends and now the party continues with a trip to the islands.

Tomorrow I will be joining several of the guests from the wedding for a trip to Roatan, which is one of the three islands that are off the coast of Honduras.

CIMG2559

keep your eyes peeled for great pictures and of course keep your fingers crossed as I will be taking a quick 25 minute flight over to Roatan on a small twin engine prop airplane. OMG!!!!

Honduras flagDo you recognize what country this flag is from???

It is from the vibrant country of Honduras, Central America.

While others are celebrating the Labor Day weekend at the Jersey Shore, I am attending a wedding in San Pedro Sula, Honduras.

Honduras LakeHonduras is known for its clear turquoise waters, beautiful beaches and breathtaking mountains.

Today, the country is enjoying a boom in tourism as its scuba diving, river rafting, mountain treks and eco-tours are making Honduras a must for thrill seekers.
