Highlights from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Last week, I was at the Hard Rock Hotel Los Cabos for our annual company retreat. While I've been to a few off-sites with my team - Denver last December and Seattle in May - this was the first time I was told to leave my laptop at home. Unlike our off-site events, this trip to Baja California Sur was not meant to have a focus on work. Instead, since my company is totally remote, it was a chance to bring a large group of us together for team bonding and relaxing ahead of Q4. What a concept!

The Best Excursion in Cozumel

As you all know Cozumel, Mexico is one of my favorite cruise ports because of their abundance of activities. They have something for just about everyone. From shopping, to exploring Mayan Ruins, to beach clubs and snorkeling you can come back time and time again and try something new.  

We’re Going to Japan!

About a week and a half ago, I was perusing Google Flights’ Explore tool (as one does) to see what sort of deals were available for next spring. Flights, as a whole, have gotten pricier, so I’ve had to get choosy about what I feel comfortable paying. And then I spotted it - flights from Tampa to Tokyo, only one layover each way, for just under $1k per person.

Our 3.5 Day Itinerary for New York City

As I shared a few weeks ago, we ultimately landed on NYC as our 2023 anniversary trip! It wasn’t exactly on our radar for places we wanted to go, but the timing worked out perfectly with a work conference I’d be attending in the city, so we capitalized on having most of the nights in the hotel already covered. Three days and change is not a lot of time to explore, especially when we both had work to do, but I think we did a great job of finding the bleisure in our visit!

Jurassic Quest vs Dinosaur World: Which is Better?

We went to Dinosaur World earlier this year, and we thought it was great. Located less than 20 minutes from the fairgrounds where Jurassic Quest is currently set up (open here from July 21-30, 2023), it felt to us like the better option - but that may not always be the case. If you’re debating between a visit to Jurassic Quest or Dinosaur World, this is what you should evaluate...

Cruising Once Again 

This time next week I will be once again sailing across the Caribbean on one of my favorite ships Carnival Horizon. You all know I am not a Carnival girly but you do know my love for the Havana Club. Once again my family will be taking over the Havana Club on a 6 night Western Caribbean cruise, sailing to Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel.
