The theme of this week's #FriFotos is Cocktails. This image of the appetizers and sangria was taken with our trusty iPhones on an unbelievably toasty day in St. Augustine, Florida--the temperature was around 110° and the humidity was over 90%. Because we had to walk a...
I love kayaking and thoroughly enjoy a full moon over the ocean, so it only makes sense that I've been dying to go on a full moon kayak tour since I heard about it. There are many places in Florida that offer full moon kayaking...
Delray Beach, FL, is a great little seaside town--it's so much fun, it was even named the "Most Fun Small Town in America" in the 2012 Best of the Road contest by Rand McNally/USA Today. The downtown area of Delray Beach runs along Atlantic Ave, which...
In 2012, I conquered two of my biggest fears. I finally took a ride in a helicopter, and I got over my fear of flying in small planes by taking a flying lesson. It all started when I was in 3rd grade while visiting Paul...
I've always been interested in history, but it wasn't until the last few years that I became intrigued with American history. With my new-found love of American history and especially after watching the movie Lincoln, I was excited and ready to explore the historic sites...

Washington DC is a fast-paced, ever-changing city and the political center of the United States. We spent some time over the holidays exploring our nation's capital city. It was a chilly couple of days because we were coming from our "adopted home" of Florida, but we...
In my mind, Christmas is bundling up in a sweater and listening to the crackle of a fireplace with snow on the ground outside, and now that we live in Florida, I kind of miss the Minnesotan version of Christmas. Thankfully, the beautiful weather and...
I always wanted to face my fear of flying in a small airplane, but I never dreamt I would have the opportunity to actually fly one myself. A friend and I purchased a Groupon for a discovery flight lesson, where one person would get to...
The Orlando area has a ridiculous amount of hotels and I always find myself unsure of trying out a new place when visiting. While there are many budget friendly hotels, some of them are downright scary. I have found a few middle of the road...
I'd be lying if I said Orlando wasn't overflowing with Mickey Mouse and theme parks galore, but underneath all the theme park hype, Orlando really does have many other fun and unique activities to offer. I can't even begin to count how many times I've...
