Disney, Travel

One of the things I love about Disney is there are so many ways “to do it.” At Walt Disney World alone there are four theme parks, countless restaurants, resorts, park-hopping, character meals, Disney Springs, dining plans – you could stay for a month or like we recently did, visit just for one day! There is so much to see and do, that no matter how much time you have you can’t see it all. But if you only have a short stay, you definitely want to maximize your time, so I’m sharing my best tips for spending only one day at Disney World!

As we all know, there is so much to do in Orlando! Even outside of Disney and Universal, there are awesome theme parks (we love Legoland and Aquatica), indoor experiences (like the Crayola Factory), and wildlife tours a plenty. On our recent Orlando trip, we wanted to try something totally new so we were beyond excited to partner with Orlando Tree Trek for a visit! If you are looking for an awesome treetop adventure park, and/or a zipline in Orlando, we highly recommend a visit to Orlando Tree Trek Adventure!

My kids love animals and are always up for a zoo, farm or aquarium visit. On our recent trip to Clearwater Florida, we were so excited to be able to visit the Clearwater Marine Aquarium and Marine Life Rescue Center– not just to see all the great sea life, but to learn about how they rehab animals! That’s right, the Clearwater Aquarium is more than just a place to go and look at marine animals – it a working sea animal rehab facility!

The Best Aquarium in Florida! Plan your visit to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, home of Winter the Dolphin from Dolphin tale and Hope the dolphin from Dolphin Tale 2. This aquarium is also a marine life rescue center. #Florida #Clearwater #Tampa #TampaBay #FamilyTravel #ActivitieswithKids

Over Christmas break, I wanted to take the kids into the city to see the tree in Rockefeller Center. But I also wanted to do something else, something new (new to us at least) and different. I looked into the three pop-ups that are currently going on, Candytopia, Color Factory and the Trolls Experience. Honestly, we went to Trolls because it was the one of the three that wasn’t sold out for our date and it was close to Rockefeller Center. We had a great time at the Trolls Experience NYC and I’m excited to share our review with you.

This fall has been so hectic, I’ve been tutoring a ton, working hard on the blog, and with my son playing travel soccer, it feels like we have been on the run since school started. With some random fall days off, Election Day & Veterans Day specifically, I wanted to plan a little getaway where we could have fun, spend time together and maximize the small break from our daily activities!

Since my kids have been begging, I mean BEGGING, to go to an indoor water park, I knew a night at Great Wolf Lodge Poconos PA would be the perfect destination for this fall break!

As the cold weather arrives here in New York, I had been looking at a warm weather getaway with baby girl. It’s her turn for a trip with mommy, since little man took the last mommy trip, going to Dutchess County with me. A few weeks ago, I saw some of the airlines were having sales (which I believe makes prices come down across the board) and I found two tickets from JFK to Orlando for less than $200 each!

Sadly, we hesitated on buying them. Baby girl was on the fence about not wanting to miss stuff at home to go to Orlando, and by the time I convinced her to go with me, the sale had ended and the fares had gone up.

WAY UP!

I feel like this is a familiar tale – do I book? Not book? Wait? Will prices go up? Go down? Will there be another sale?

It’s really hard to ever know if you are getting the best prices when booking travel. Except for one weekend a year when you can know you are getting great sales. When is that?

Let me share.

There is no better way to save time, space and money than with versatile clothing. To become a master of your wardrobe, you need to have a good selection of basics you can build upon. Making several outfits from one item of clothing is about thinking outside the box and coming up with different ways to style it.

Stuff I Love, Travel

We travel as a way to spend time as a family. We travel to see the world and know that there is more to life than our tiny slice of it. We love long trips, like our three weeks in Hawaii, short, local getaways like our night in Dutchess County, or annual trips to our favorite winter spot, Southwest Florida. No matter near or far, short or long, each trip is special to our family. As cheesy as it sounds, the memories we create on these trips will last a lifetime.

Our trip to Montreal was so fun, and I still can’t believe we could drive to from New York to Montreal in less than seven hours! Driving sure beat the price of flying a whole family up there and the ride was really easy. I love that in a short road trip, we could be transported to a completely different country and culture. I learned a lot about driving into Canada and I’m excited to share my tips for Americans visiting Canada, especially the French speaking city of Montreal.
