Private Disney Fireworks Cruise

The pontoon bobs in the water, as the music swells. Bright, vivid colors, burst in the air. I have a moment of disbelief, during our Private Disney Fireworks Cruise. Am I really here? I watched Disney movies as a kid, but I wasn’t really a Disney kid-fan. My favorite character as a child, was Lady…
Bayside Marketplace-Miami

Miami is a city, offering a variety of experiences. You can hob nob with the fancy, in South Beach.

Visiting Wynwood-Miami

Art is captivating. It’s fascinating that a living being formulates a dream in their mind, then conveys that dream to others, through pictures, through sculpture, through written/spoken words, through food, movement, or sound.

Staying at Port Orleans Riverside-Disney World

The sound of clip-clopping hooves, washes over me, as the carriage glides along the tree-lined paths, at Port Orleans Riverside. A family, each member expertly dressed as a character from The Little Mermaid, waves to us, as they set off to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary party.

I fumble quite a bit, but I take Yehaa Bob’s spoken wisdom to heart, “Who cares what you look like, you are never going to…

The Coral Castle This popular, quirky, Homestead-Florida, tourist site,…
Biscayne National Park-Florida

Our boat gently bounces over the turquoise, National Park water. If your eyes need a dose of the Caribbean, without the Caribbean travel, Biscayne National Park will quench your vision. Biscayne National Park is one of the United States’ natural water parks. Though there is land, the park is mainly comprised of water. The Dante…
The Coral Castle-Homestead-Florida

The Coral Castle, located in Homestead Florida, is a fascinating site. Built by Latvian engineer/stone mason, Edward Leedskalnin, The Coral Castle is considered an example of wonderous engineering, impressively built before the use of, current, modern, technology. Most people visit The Coral Castle for the how. How As I chat with a fellow visitor, he…
Everglades National Park-Coe and Flamingo

Despite all of the spectacular nature, it is my favorite moment of the day, at Everglades National Park. “Are there any questions?” Park Ranger Ashley asks. A young girl, in a pink hat, raises her hand. “How do I become a Park Ranger? I really want to be a Park Ranger someday.” Park Ranger Ashley’s…
