During our stay in the Orlando area, we tried a theme park we hadn’t been to before – LEGOLAND Florida Resort! There you will find more than 50 rides, shows, a water park, attractions and great food. All of it is uniquely inspired by popular LEGO brands and characters. Ideal for ages 2-12, LEGOLAND Florida…
One location on our family trip to Florida was a stay on the State’s Space Coast, primarily at Cocoa Beach, just after we left Daytona Beach. People from all over come not only for this famous beach alone, but Cocoa Beach is also just south of Cape Canaveral as it’s a popular cruise port. So…
Upon mention of Daytona Beach Florida, some would immediately think of the Daytona International Speedway and the iconic Daytona 500 NASCAR race. Some would assimilate the location to beautiful iconic sand beaches, or the recognizable Bandshell concert stage. Daytona Beach on Florida’s Atlantic coast is all those common assimilations, and now for us, it’s the…
When on a vacation with kids, sometimes there’s little to remind you that you’re an adult on vacation. From the itinerary to restaurant choice, impromptu bathroom stops to the gear hauled around each day – ‘travelling with kids’ has a way of taking over. A perfect solution in reclaiming a piece of your vacation back?…
If you’re looking for a great spot for your family’s next weekend getaway, make sure you consider Dallas as a potential destination.

Recently we were in the Orlando area and reserved time in our itinerary to take in Universal Orlando Resort. It was a place that had been on the bucket list for a long time, and we could not pass on the chance to finally cross it off – even if it meant spending just one…
Before going to any destination for the first time, I make a short-list of things I’d like to do and attractions I need to see. Usually when away on a press/business trip, there isn’t ample time to explore aimlessly, yet I’m pretty resourceful when it comes to squeezing in the time to see the highlights and…
We recently visited Louisville Kentucky for the first time, a trip planned for a cheerleading competition for my oldest daughter. I have to admit that when I first learned about the trip, many months prior, I wasn’t all that excited about going. I mean, when I think about my must-see bucket list of US cities…
Earlier this month I stayed at the Hyatt Place Los Angeles while in the city on business. Located 2 miles from the LAX airport, the Hyatt Place Los Angeles is the ideal hotel for layovers, those on business or travellers who want to have easy access to attractions and businesses in both El Segundo and Los Angeles. When…
Fremont Street was at the top of my list of must-sees while in Las Vegas, after all it’s where Vegas first began. If you think that The Strip has sights, Fremont Street is has even more neon lights and action at every turn. This street is considered the downtown of Las Vegas, the old part of…
Glacier National Park is one of the most beautiful national parks that we have in the US. Around every turn is another view that literally takes your breath away. You can drive the Road to the Sun once it opens in July and see dozens of waterfalls, and then wildflowers bloom throughout the rest of…
We landed in Las Vegas in the early AM, knowing that check-in wasn’t until later afternoon. As much as we wanted to concentrate on seeing the strip for first trip to sin city, we also didn’t want to miss the chance to see Vegas beyond the strip. So, our early arrival was a perfect…
For our first time in the area, we decided to stay at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Not only did it have great reviews, had a great location right on the strip, yet the that was the venue for the concert. Perfect, right? Here’s my review. The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas What a…
My hubby and I just returned from a 4 day vacation to Vegas, our first trip to sin city. We stayed at the Cosmopolitan Las Vegas, and had the most amazing views from our terrace. Here is the famous Vegas Skyline: by day and by night. Isn’t it gorgeous? I absolutely loved Vegas and…
During our Disney Wonder cruise down the West coast, the ship docked right beside Pier 39 and Fisherman’s Wharf, the perfect place for families to sightsee while in San Francisco. Fisherman’s Wharf is also home to Pier 39, which I included in my San Francisco for family travel post, yet The Wharf and surrounding area offer so…
Looking for Family Friendly Attractions in San Francisco? Last Fall my family embarked on a Disney Wonder Cruise, with a two-day stop in San Francisco as we made our way down the West coast. First of all, when docking from a cruise ship in San Francisco, you really are in one sweet spot. There’s so much…
My family and I just got back from a magical adventure aboard the Disney Wonder which included a trip to Disneyland. One of the first things hubby and I wondered after getting that jaw-dropping invite was, “How do we tell the kids?”. After all, I’m not the type of person to casually break news like…
