The Keys are open, and they would welcome and appreciate our business! On Sept 10th, Hurricane Irma, a storm the size of Texas barreled across the Keys and up the Florida Peninsula causing havoc and devastation. The eye crossed at Big Pine, Summerland and Cudjoe Key but there was major damage all the way from Key […]
Las Vegas, an entertainment hub, has a lot to offer those looking for a good time with a myriad of shows and activities including many Cirque du Soleil productions, concerts, magic shows and over 100 casinos for those wanting to tempt Lady Luck. Mega casino hotels are gradually replacing dated ones with musty smelling carpets […]
This 249-acre park is located on the site of the old Ojus Rock quarry and is named after the owner A. O. Greynolds who donated most of the land making the park possible. This surprisingly large park can be found on West Dixie Highway and 180th St just south of Aventura in North Miami. Full […]
Anyone that has seen the movie Open Water, read the book Diver Down, or even read the many Divers Alert Network articles on diving safety knows that there can be a real risk of being swept away by currents and quite possibly out of view from your buddy, group, or dive boat. A scary thought!
This was our first time out after Hurricane Irma, and you never know what can happen when such a massive force of nature comes barreling through the neighborhood.

South Florida has a multitude of well-equipped beaches all along its coastline making it a pleasure for locals and visitors to partake in oceanfront beach activities. As we learned ourselves, the beaches are not always easy to find, and it’s not always obvious where to park or what facilities exist. It is our hope to […]
I have to admit that I was a bit concerned about what I would eat in India. I’m not a fan of curry, to be honest I really don’t like it. I had assumed that it would be part of most dishes. I was so wrong! The flavors, textures and colors are so varied; there is […]
I can’t think of a better way to feel refreshed and reinvigorated after a long overnight flight than relaxing in a geothermal spa. This was the perfect way to start our one-day stopover in Iceland – even with a 5-6 hour layover at Keflavik airport would give enough time for a visit to the world-renowned […]
Being intrigued about Iceland with all the ‘Hoopla’ it’s been getting lately, we opted to take advantage of the opportunity to have a one-day stopover in Iceland while traveling to Ireland. We are happy we did as we enjoyed our time in this remote and wild but beautiful country.
