Shopping for Gifts in Key West Florida

You don't have to come up to Miami this weekend. I know you probably want to spend the whole weekend shopping in Key West Florida for Christmas presents for me (yeah! yeah!). Ok, you stay down there in the Florida Keys and shop! Christmas Sue

Bicycle Safety is improving in Tampa

Tampa has some great places to ride, away from the cars. The city has a nice goal to reduce bicycle fatalities in the area by twenty percent. Tampa has added a bunch of nice bicycle trials to help in this campaign. Bringing awareness to both the driver and the pedestrian and bicyclist situation is a nice program and we are behind it.

Cuba Travel from the Key West Airport EYW

Travel growth at the Key West Airport EYW was a hot topic this year. It is expected to explode, just like the cruise ships do into the Port of Key West and the boat ferry. What changed? The US government allowing ticketed Americans to visit Cuba again. This is going to do plenty for Miami Air and Key West. We expect this will start revolutionizing the way vacation travelers between Havana and Key West. This is the dawning of a new era in the popularity of Key West Airport.

Where to watch the Boot Key Marathon Harbor Lighted Boat Parade

A Middle Florida Keys holiday party is my favorite event of the year. This is wild with all the beer drinking dinghies and on up to the giant yachts. The boot key marathon harbor is perfect and the parade route goes right by Lazy Days South, the Dockside Lounge, and Burdine's Waterfront Restaurant, the best bar in Marathon Florida Keys!). This year I am going to have my video camera ready.

Cheap Disney Hotels make us Smile!

Hi...I do not know how they do it with the big discounts, but this was just one fantastic place to stay. It was super and cheap. Things are great, has it all but without the spa like the Swan. We are alive and healthy enjoying Orlando I-Drive and the local attractions. That is the key, big smiles and no CNN (not the weather or the political daily dealing). Florida is just too entertaining.

If the lion king kitty is meowing, be happy!

Ideas for the Orlando Disney Explosion

I like Walt Disney World during the Christmas holiday season, it is special. Don't overlook the wildly popular Disney Orlando Hotels. Big Pools are the top draw. Go to one of the Epcot area hotels, and you can drink wine inside Epcot. Bars are all over and walk around the lake visiting each hotel pool bar!

What to do with kids at Disney Orlando?

The Orlando Theme Parks have tons of Audio-Animatronic shows, and this one was the original. I saw this so many years ago, it is the classic Disney Orlando Country Bear Jamboree. Yes, this one was here when the park opened to the public in 1971. Kids love the funny Disney show bits, so it is still going on today.

Things to do in Cape Coral Florida

There are a number of fun events and activities (we need to go here) for families to enjoy in Cape Coral. Yes, this is a waterfront play time special for this holiday season. I love the schedule of events, and that includes the Festival of Lights on Saturday (not the big disney party for holiday cheer). Yeah, celebrate the lighting of the traditional family focused tree. Bring your own beer or wine or head to the Leaping Lizard Cape Coral Bar.

City of Orlando Vacation Surprises

Whatever your motivation for Disney Orlando Vacations may be, you will never go wrong in this prime town. The City of Orlando has so many Vacation Surprises. We love making new friends with Mickey and Goofy. At Animal Kingdom, the family has a nice chance for connecting with nature. All of the walking is so nice for achieving better health, all while on vacation! If you want more local stuff and getting more involved in the community, go with International Drive and Downtown Disney. It all starts and ends at the Disney Parks!

We like Orlando Hotels with giant swimming pools!

At Caribe Royal Suites, you are five minutes from Epcot, SeaWorld, Downtown Disney, and International Drive. What convenience for the Florida Vacation Traveler! The suites are large and they offer tons of hotel amenities. Find out who has the advantage when it comes to the giant swimming pool.
