Lovin’ New Orleans

We always visit New Orleans during the holidays.  I love this city.  Many people think of partying when they think of New Orleans, but New Orleans has so much more to offer --- meeting wonderful people, eating delicious Cajun cuisine, shopping, art, and...

The Grand Floridian (Disney Part III)

Well, it's time to visit the parks! As I stated in a previous post, I was not excited about going to Disney. However, the park was at 30% capacity and masks were still mandatory. So, I can honestly say it was a great experience. It was not blazing hot during our...

Lagniappe Restaurant at Amelia Island

Today was a great day with the family. My oldest and I hung out at the beach and then we hopped in the truck and drove over to Kingsley Plantation, which we'll talk more about later. Kingsley was a plantation owner who went to Africa, brought back an African princess,...

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...

Wicked Bao at Fernandina Beach

For dinner, the family and I tried Wicked Bao. Hugh from Amelia Island Board Rentals recommended this place, and I'm so glad he did. When we arrived, the place was packed. There were several people standing outside waiting to get in, but it was worth the wait. Wicked...

Family Fun at Atlantis

If you are traveling with children, rest assured that there is PLENTY for them to do at Atlantis. I did not take a picture of every swimming pool because there were just too many. The kids have their own play area, so my kids fell in love with this area. I was able to...

The Henderson Beach Resort

This summer has been wonderful!  The kids had a blast, and I had a much needed break from the hustle and bustle life can bring. Summer was filled with great vacations, visiting family and friends, and just relaxing. One vacation was extra special to us, not just...

Miraval Resort & Spa, Part I

The hubster and I decided to get away and leave reality behind.  We did just that by going to Miraval Resort & Spa. I have heard so many wonderful things about this resort, so I always wondered, "What's the big deal?" Oprah and Gayle went on a retreat here,...
