Flory Farms Airbnb in Kentwood Louisiana

With the current travel restrictions, we decided to opt out of our usual summer vacation and looked for more of staycation option. We were referred to this charming Country Cottage in Kentwood Louisiana; Flory Farms.

Topolino’s Terrace Character Breakfast à la Art with Mickey & Friends

 

Disney's Riviera Resort has quickly become my all time favorite Walt Disney World Resort. And let me tell you, the character breakfast at Topolino's Terrace is the best character breakfast at Disney World too! Chef Mickey, who? 

Favorite Eats at Disney World Part 2

I'm having a hard time accepting that 2019 has come and gone and it's 2020, but to start off the New Year I wanted to share some of the best things I ate at Disney World recently! And it would not be a "favorite Disney food" post without mentioning the Bacon Mac n Cheese Fries at Casey's Corner in Magic Kingdom. Seriously, there has not been a trip since these were announced that we did not order two of these bad boys (yep, we can't share, they are THAT good!)

Gran Destino Tower at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort

I booked a room at Gran Destino Tower as soon as the window opened. We stayed at Coronado Springs right after the room renovation and I remember they were working on the tower at that time. I couldn't fathom why they would put a big eye sore right out in front of such a beautiful resort, but I have eaten my words. The tower is stunning, it's a work of art inside and out and I cannot wait to stay there again!

Kona Cafe at Disney's Polynesian Resort

The Polynesian Village Resort is home to some of my favorite food at Walt Disney World; great drinks and snacks at the Tambu Lounge and of course 'Ohana; endless shrimp and dumplings and the bread pudding...the amazing bread pudding! There's also Kona Cafe, which I had previously only done breakfast at, but we decided to grab a last minute dinner reservation and it was such a great decision.

A New Orleans Pre-Cruise Trip

Before our cruise we decided to head down to New Orleans a night early, go out, and then not have to get up too terribly early to make it to the cruise terminal the following morning. We were a group of 8 adults, 6 who would be going out that night, so we found the perfect Airbnb in Treme. So comfortable, beautifully decorated, and right next door to some really great seafood! I highly recommend booking a stay here whether you're cruising, going to a football game, or just want to enjoy the city. It's a quick Uber or Lyft to just about anywhere you might want to go!

Dining onboard Carnival Valor

 

I will start by saying that I am not overly fond of buffet style dining on a good day, so you won't find me raving about anything I got off the buffet, as I avoided it for the most part aside from pretty common things such as breakfast selections. I also didn't try many specialty drinks as I'm a Tito's & Vodka girl and I'll order the occasional Extra Dirty Martini, but this Mai Tai was a perfect start to my morning!
