The Super Bowl is Coming to Tampa

Now that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the first to ever play a Super Bowl in their home stadium, Tampa is looking to be even more exciting leading up to game day. Although it’s highly unlikely you will snag a ticket to one of the hottest events of the year, we have rounded up some of our must-dos if you are planning a trip to Tampa in time for the big game.

Must-Dos in Boston, Massachusetts

A few years back, I had the pleasure of visiting a new city: Boston, Massachusetts, home of the Boston Red Sox, Mike’s Pastry, and the Freedom Trail. There is plenty to see and do in this historic New England city, but here are my top recommendations for your next trip.

Tampa Must-Eat: Harry Waugh Dessert Room

Dining at Bern’s is an experience you don’t want to miss out on. However, that experience 1) generally requires making a reservation weeks, if not months, in advance, and 2) can get quite expensive, especially if you’re enjoying some of that amazing wine collection. Fortunately, there’s a way to get a taste of Bern’s Steak House without securing a reservation in advance or breaking the bank: the Harry Waugh Dessert Room.

Our 10-Day Iceland and Ring Road Itinerary

My first road trip as an adult was actually in Iceland, and nothing can quite compare to that adventure! In March 2018, a small group of us decided to meet up in Reykjavik to tackle Ring Road (Route 1) in a camper van. With a lot of planning (and a lot of last-minute plan changes), we were able to see a ton of the country in just 10 days.

Road Trip Recap: Asheville and Blue Ridge

While 2020 may have cancelled or postponed many of our travel plans, we weren’t about to let it ruin our last chance to get away, just the two of us. We figured out over the summer how to take a road trip while pregnant, so once again, we decided to hit the road with our two dogs in tow. Our first stop? Asheville, North Carolina, by way of Atlanta, Georgia.

New York City at Christmas

I may be biased, but I think I had the best first trip to New York City, hands down. During my senior year of college, my two best friends and I took a 4-day trip to the Big Apple right after finals week and a few weeks before Christmas. Five years later, I have been back to NYC a handful of times, but nothing beats the city at Christmas time while enjoying a whole bunch of firsts with your college besties.

Winter Must-Do: Visit Ice Castles

When Liz coordinated our visit to Copper Mountain for snow tubing, she also suggested we look at Ice Castles. The award-winning ice attraction has four locations in North America, one of which is in Dillon, Colorado; the other Ice Castles can be found in Lincoln, New Hampshire; Midway, Utah, at the Homestead Resort; and Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, at the Geneva National Resort & Club. A quick look at the images tagged with #IceCastles was enough to sell me on a visit.
