Riu Site Inspection
Before flying out last Monday, I had the opportunity to inspect Riu, an adult-only, all-inclusive resort in Nassau, which has just completed a major renovation. The Property Manager could not stop gushing about the changes and was particularly fond of hardwood floors throughout the rooms. I have to agree with her… the updates are stunning… Continue reading Riu Site Inspection
BahaMar Site Inspection
I had the pleasure of a concierge-guided tour of Baha Mar, the Caribbean's newest luxury resort, last Sunday. Ah-may-zing!!! I truly cannot say enough good things about this resort. The attention to detail is impeccable! Even though the day was rainy and gray, the resort guests were bubbling with excitement all around. Offering a collection… Continue reading BahaMar Site Inspection
Happy Memorial Day!
Happy Memorial Day friends! If you or someone you love serves in the armed forced, thank you for your service. I've read several posts recently about what an odd holiday Memorial Day is. This widow wrote about every day being Memorial Day for her family since losing her active-duty husband. But its particularly hard honoring… Continue reading Happy Memorial Day!
Life Lately and New Orleans
I don't know about you guys, but 2018 is zooming by. So much has happened / is happening, I hardly know where to start. This year I'll turn 40, and I guess that means its time for a little maintenance. I've had two minor surgeries in as many months, but I am now on the… Continue reading Life Lately and New Orleans
MSC Seaside Naming Ceremony – Day 3
Welcome back, friends! So what did I get up to on Day 3? Well, exploring the various staterooms was top of the list!

There are only three of these suites on the ship and they are exclusively available with the… Continue reading MSC Seaside Naming Ceremony – Day 3

Grammy left early yesterday morning and we rounded out the night with a double sleepover.

MSC Seaside Naming Ceremony – Day 1
Last week, the DH and I had the privilege of spending two nights on board the MSC Seaside for its Naming Ceremony and inaugural cruise. Fun!! We flew in the day before and spent a little time in South Beach, Miami. The vibe in South Beach is very sensual. The Art Deco buildings are very… Continue reading MSC Seaside Naming Ceremony – Day 1
Busch Gardens Thanksgiving – Day 3
Real talk... on the morning of Day 3, we were dragging a little bit. But a bit of good news was the adrenaline rush we needed. Remember when we checked into the hotel on Day 1 and they did not have a second stuff giraffe for Stinky? Well, I emailed (and called) Guest Relations on… Continue reading Busch Gardens Thanksgiving – Day 3
Busch Gardens Thanksgiving – Day 2
On Day 2 (Thanksgiving Day), we were ready to go! The forecast predicted an 80% chance of rain and thunderstorms the entire day, but we lucked out with just a few scattered showers. We also lucked out with a thin crowd, and again enjoyed walking on the popular rides. The park is equally as beautiful… Continue reading Busch Gardens Thanksgiving – Day 2
