Dollywood! (Pt. 1) So you find yourself driving through Tennessee to see the changing of the seasons, and colors of fall in the mountains. Be sure to schedule a little extra time to stop by and enjoy Dollywood! Of course, when you think of the colors of fall, you can’t forget orange! And, there is plenty
Ozona Pizza, a step beyond the ordinary So, you are in the mood for a Pizza. But, not just any pizza, one with the toppings heaped haplessly on top. Afterall you are a pizza connoisseur, not just the average consumer or carnivore looking to ravage the ordinary Pizza. You know what you like and what is good
Half Moon Cay Yes, it’s true Half Moon Cay is Carnival’s private 2,400-acre island, that serves as a private retreat for passengers on the line’s Caribbean and Panama Canal sailings. The morning of our arrival at Half Moon Cay, the weather was less than desirable. The ship could not dock on the island because of high
When it comes to Florida sunshine… One of the best places to experience it is on the water! Denise and I discovered Island Paradise Charters a few years back. They offer an affordable way to experience the beauty of Florida on the water. Island Paradise Charters can take you on an Adventure Cruise, a Special Event
Okay, you have to eat right? and, you don’t always feel like cooking. So you decide you want to go out to eat. So, where do you go? What are hungry for? I know, decisions, decisions, decision! Well, let me help you out and tell you about one of our favorites. Gringos Cafe in Port
Wild Sassa? Denise and I are, wanders. We love to take drives to nowhere and just explore. On our recent excursion to The Freezer with Denise’s mother, we decided to take the “scenic route” home. We discovered a few things in Homosassa that I thought we could share with you. The first, Wild Sassa Food Trailer! (The second,
The locals were right when they said to go early! The food was awesome and the place packed out quickly. I was first in line when they started taking orders at 12:00 and our food came out quick! We had the steamed shrimp, butter garlic wings, roast beef wrap and the clam chowder in a bread bowl.
How was that for a catchy title? Well trust me, the day we visited the quaint little town of Cold Spring, New York, was a bit on the chilly side, and this little coffee shop was a welcome site.
I use the term “coffee shop” loosely because the “Cupoccino Cafe” has a little bit everything from freshly brewed coffee to sandwiches, and everything in between!
If you ever find yourself in Tarrytown, NY, you just have to stop by this quaint little slice of taco heaven, the Taco Project! Located at 18 Main Street in Tarrytown, this small corner restaurant delivers big on fresh and flavorful!
Oh, the other day, I might have left out an important tip. Get your lounge chair early and remember, if you move your feet you can lose your seat!
Deck chairs, on beautiful days like these, come at a premium. I will tell you that Carnival (and I am sure the other cruise lines) have an adult only deck section, where the weary traveler can relax in the sun, away from the hustle and bustle of the pool deck. Small may it be, but still a nice ref
Pack the essentials in your carry on. Your luggage may not be delivered to your room for a while. A swimsuit, sunscreen, and a change of clothes are good examples, not to mention any medications you may need. Denise has a travel checklist that comes in handy. You don’t want to be buying items on board that you could have brought from home!
Food trucks are all the buzz these days, drawing large crowds at food truck rallies. The rally held at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa boasts the largest gathering of Food Trucks in the US.
