    “Lounging” Around Disney-Round 4

     Lounging Around Disney-Round 4 was full of fun and friends.  Boathouse-Disney Springs I’m thrilled as my friend Len voices his desire to visit the bar at The Boathouse. Like me, he wishes to behold the famous Duck Duck Razz. If you make a picture-worthy drink, I’m there.   Blue Curacao, Stoli Razz, Peach Schnapps, lemon juice…

  • Little Havana Food Tour-Miami

    Little Havana Food Tour-Miami

    As we stroll through the streets, during our Little Havana Food Tour. I take-in this new-to-me neighborhood. Though we’re still in the United States, only four hours from the bustling land of theme parks, the food, drinks, and streets, of Little Havana, are a learning opportunity.  One of my favorite things to do, when visiting…

  • Staying at Port Orleans Riverside-Disney World

    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. Instead of setting off full-steam ahead, at plane’s landing, we choose…

  • Things to Do in Homestead-Florida

    Things to Do in Homestead-Florida

    I did not know much about Homestead-Florida, as I researched our Everglades National Park trip. Unknown to me, was how many activities existed in this city, located between Miami and The Florida Keys. Many people just drive through, but it is worth a stop for exploration. The Coral Castle This popular, quirky, Homestead-Florida, tourist site,…

    Robert Is Here-Homestead

    I’m sure your first question as I recommend Robert Is Here is, I’m supposed to visit a fruit stand?  The answer is, yes, but Robert Is Here is not your average fruit stand.  Needing a little fuel in the morning, we stop at Robert Is Here. I heard they have smoothies, and I appreciate a…

    Lafayette-History and Cultural Tour

    Lafayette, Louisiana, is steeped in history. Growing up and continuing to live in the North East, Tri-State area, I am immersed in the United States’ past. Narratives of the Revolutionary War and the start of the United States, percolate in my brain. This foundation now gives me a thirst, to learn about history beyond my…

    We Eat A Lot of Disney World Ice Cream

    Disney World Ice Cream offers an endless selection. Usually when I say, we eat a lot of ice cream, it includes three, maybe four stops, but with so many opportunities, on this trip, we eat A LOT of ice cream.  Salt + Straw In the ice cream enthusiast world, a visit to Salt + Straw,…

    Eating in Williamsburg, Virginia-Part 2

    Continued from Part 1…… Amber Ox I’ll admit we visit Amber Ox, due to location convenience, but as soon as we are handed menus, my heart fills with joy. The restaurant can be described as clever, comfort, tapas. We want everything. How often do you see a drop biscuit board? It’s a must order, with…

  • Eating in Williamsburg, Virginia-Part 1

    Eating in Williamsburg, Virginia-Part 1

    My initial assumptions regarding the food in Williamsburg, Virginia, are wrong. I imagine Williamsburg to be crammed with touristy eateries, without a single ounce of creativity. By the conclusion of our trip, I view Williamsburg, as an underrated, food appreciation, destination. The Bake Shop Though we will on occasion, we are not fans of ingesting…
