A Mother/Teen Daughter Travel Blog
After reading several outstanding reviews, we decided to book a snorkeling excursion with Captain Marvin’s Stingray City Tours. A shuttle picked us up from the Ritz Carlton around 8:30 am and after a five minute drive, we arrived at the marina and were greeted by the friendliest crew, Eric and Michael, as we boarded a beautiful sailboat. We headed to the spacious upper deck to make the most of the stunning Caribbean views as we set sail for adventure.
You will absolutely adore I Adorn U Jewelry! The creator of the company, Mary Beth Heishman, hand makes each and every single piece. She will even personalize them for you. Her inspiration comes from living in the beautiful Arizona desert and her Inca heritage. Each piece is elegant, of the highest quality and simply beautiful.
After years of trying many face mask products, I can without a doubt say that the search is over!! Nugg Beauty masks are absolutely amazing! At first Brooke and I were a bit skeptical, thinking the reviews were too good to be true, but we are beyond impressed.
People travel for many different reasons: to seek adventure, to socialize, to explore, to relax, to escape, etc. Reflecting on this, we have concluded that there are ten distinct types of travelers, and if you’re planning your next vacation, perhaps our list will help you identify what type of traveler you are, and even help you branch out to become the traveler you yearn to be.
If you are like us and love to travel, then you probably enjoy bringing home souvenirs from your trips. For us, it may be something special we’ve purchased, while other times it is something free we have collected along the way. Bringing treasures home keeps your travels alive visually and if you creatively display the items, they are happy reminders of the memories you’ve created.
Packing light is essential for a relaxed and stress-free vacation. There are always mishaps that occur when traveling and the last thing you want is to deal with is lugging multiple cumbersome suitcases along with you as you travel.
When I think back to dark days of packing ignorance when almost every article of clothing from my closet was stuffed into numerous suitcases, paying $50 fees for an overweight luggage and carrying heavy bags through cities, up flights of stairs, on and off buses, I have to laugh at myself. Furthermore, more than half of the items I packed were never used or worn. I truly believe I have finally mastered the art of packing light for our travels.
Hi! It’s Brooke here and those of you who know me, know I am a passionate animal lover. I have rescued many birds that have fallen out of nests; I’ve cared for baby squirrels; I’ve recently signed up to be a volunteer at The Shed Aquarium. Honestly, I think I love animals more than humans–no offense to my fellow homo sapiens, but animals have a special place in my heart and that is 100% the reason why I feel they have no place in my stomach.
There is no place on earth like The City of Canals. It is a magical dream. From the moment we got off the train, we were mesmerized.
Because we had limited time in Venice, we decided to take a tour on the first day and then explore on our own the second day. Here is a summary of our first day with Skip The Line tour by Viator.
Growing up, I had the privilege of going on many cruises because my parents absolutely loved to cruise. As an adult, and a mom, I had never planned a cruise vacation until a few years ago, wanting my kids to experience the difference between a resort vacation and an adventure at sea. We took a Caribbean cruise from Miami to the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Grand Turk, St.Thomas and St. John. It was amazing family bonding time; however, after the trip, I couldn’t help but reflect on the pros and cons of cruising. For me personally, the pros as cons weigh pretty evenly, and I believe it really comes down to personal preferences.
