  • Menomonie Wisconsin Tour

    Menomonie Wisconsin Tour

    Eyes scan the page of TBEX Conference tours. Two tours stand out. No surprise, they are both food related. One tour involves cheese and breweries, the other is a cheese curd crawl. I opt for the cheese and breweries, Menomonie Wisconsin Tour. Learning is fun, and the tour description mentions a glimpse into the cheese…

  • We Eat A Lot of Wisconsin Ice Cream

    We Eat A Lot of Wisconsin Ice Cream

    Wisconsin, the land of cheese. To make the cheese, a great deal of milk is produced. What other tasty treat requires milk? Ice cream. I could not visit “America’s Dairyland” and skip indulging in Wisconsin Ice Cream.  Our Wisconsin Ice Cream adventure, encompasses shops located in Eau Claire, County.  Residing in the Philadelphia area, I…

  • Islamorada-Road Trip-Florida

    Islamorada-Road Trip-Florida

    People often zoom through the Florida Keys, on their way to Key West, but the non-Key West Keys, have a lot to explore. Since we decide to save Key West for a future trip, we have plenty of time to devote a day to an Islamorada-Road Trip.  Blond Giraffe Key Lime Pie Factory Does key…

  • “Lounging” Around Disney-Round 4

    “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

    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-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…
