vacation

It is about that time to start planning your family's summer vacation. School will be out in just about a month and the fam will be hitting the road soon for a vacation destination of your choosing. Let me help you decide where to go. I have been to 2 of the 3 indoor waterparks I am about to suggest.

Are you ready to get back on a cruise ship and set sail to a beautiful destination? If you are, there is some good news today. Carnival Cruise Line is reportedly aiming for a July 3rd restart in Texas and Florida. The Carnival Vista and Breeze would leave from Galveston while the Carnival Horizon would leave from Miami...

Many of us are in serious need of a vacation. Like an actual vacation. NOT a staycation. A couple of weekends ago, my significant other and I had a mini-getaway to a place not too far away and yet it seemed like we were in another world in Marfa, TX. We stayed at a beautiful hotel with a fabulous pool and enjoyed a very relaxing, very chill, no plans weekend.

Due to the Rona, everything it seems has been cancelled.

Let's call this blog, 'things you don't realize about yourself until you go on vacation.' Took a little trip to the dirty South and while I loved it for the most part, from the scenery to the food to the friendly folks, I hated this the most...

The other day I did a blog about Spring Break vacation destinations in Texas and this morning as we had our friends Ashley and Mauriana in from Moody Gardens in Galveston, I was quickly reminded of my awesome visit there last summer! This is a photo of what you see when you park. How beautiful is that view?

We are 6 weeks or so away from another much needed break for our kiddos! Spring Break will be here before you know it. Do you make it an annual affair to get out of town with your family? When I was growing up, I know alot of people that would take skiing trips, I even took a couple myself with friends, or camping trips, always fun.

Why do we tend to eat so much while on vacation? lol Well I did last week and fell in love with a new restaurant that we don't even have here in the area. A place called Posado's, they served mexican food and it was good. But that isn't exactly why I loved it. When we first walked in, we noticed an ice cream machine with cones right next to it, so right away my family was thinking, 'yes, complimen
