Mrs Macs Kitchen Review Key Largo

Key Largo has many choices to eat and drink but one of my favorite places to go is Mrs Macs Kitchen in Key Largo. You may get fooled by looking at the building on the outside but you will know the food is really good and tasty because of the crowds for lunch and dinner.

Royal Caribbean Allure of the Sea is a beautiful and grand cruise that leaves Fort Lauderdale's port most Sunday afternoons.

Blowing Rocks Preserve Jupiter Island

A person emailed me about Blowing Rocks Preserve on Jupiter Island Florida and it has been a long time since I have been there. Its a great place to watch nature at work, with blowing and slashing water. The preserve was named for its rocky Anastasia limestone shoreline – the largest on the U.S. Atlantic coast. During extreme high tides and after winter and summer storms, seas break against the rocks and force plumes of saltwater up to 50 feet…

Driving on the Daytona Beach Video

Daytona Beach is one of the few beaches that I know of where you can still drive on with your own vehicle. Now, you can't drive fast or do doughnuts; there are rules! But you CAN drive parallel to the Atlantic Ocean, in the comfort of your car, and enjoy gorgeous views. To drive on the beach you have to pay $5 per vehicle; you'll get a receipt that's valid the entire day. Check out this video of driving on…
