The Lion King Atlanta

A few months ago, my family and I went to see The Lion King at The Minskoff Theater on Broadway in New York City. It was an absolutely grand experience. After I returned home from New York, I knew I wanted to share this experience with my friends, so a group of us...

French Quarter

There is no place like New Orleans.  I get excited all over again every time I go.  We were just here during the Thanksgiving holidays with family and friends, but of course, I can never get enough of the N.O. You know I always have to stop here.  Cafe...

Junior’s Cheesecake NYC

New York is known for its cheesecake, and at the forefront of the cheesecake craze is Junior's cheesecake. We took a 5-7 minute walk from our hotel to Junior's. We met Matt's cousin, her husband, and their daughters there for lunch. It's a great spot to eat before or...

Fish by Jose Andres

On our first night in the Bahamas, we ate at Fish by Jose Andres. This restaurant was in The Cove, the hotel we reserved for our entire visit. I love the decor, the food, and the service in this restaurant. I also loved the convenience of it being in the hotel....

Miraval Resort & Spa, Part II

I participated in some activities (other than the spa) while at Miraval. We went hiking if you can believe that.  If you come to Miraval and you are not a local, you need to go hiking or do some of the other outdoor activities.  Matt has always wanted to go...

The Salty Pelican at Fernandina Beach

After walking around downtown Fernandina Beach, we walked over to The Salty Pelican, which is another local favorite. Everything in downtown Fernandina Beach is within walking distance, so we parked at the marina and walked around to visit the local shops before...

Louisiana Lagniappe Destin

My kids and I love the beach, but whenever you go to the beach, it is imperative that you enjoy the seafood local restaurants have to offer. I am always drawn to a great seafood restaurant. We heard Louisiana Lagniappe was a great restaurant for both tourists and...

9/11 Memorial NYC

My daughter read Towers Falling by Jewell Parker Rhodes, so when I told her we would be going to New York, she immediately asked to go to the 9/11 Memorial. After leaving Battery Park, we walked along the pier to the memorial, which was a quiet, 10-minute walk. My...

High Museum of Art Atlanta

The family and I took a detour during our vacation and decided to stop in Atlanta to see the Obama Portraits at the High Museum of Art. We stayed at the Ritz, which was amazing. The kids loved the room service and enjoyed their koala bear pancakes for breakfast. After...

Disney World

We visited two parks (Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom) during our stay. We had a great time at Animal Kingdom, but I think the kids loved Magic Kingdom. The highlight of the Animal Kingdom was the Safari and the Avatar Flight of Passage. The Avatar Flight of Passage...
