It may not have been what we originally planned, but the girls had a blast nonetheless!

08/24/2024

The girls had a great day at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter! 🧙🏼 🪄

We escaped the rain with a quick bite to eat at the Leaky Cauldron, a small, grubby-looking pub and inn serving up traditional British food. 🥘

Once inside, we found ourselves under a cathedral ceiling with views towards the guest rooms in the inn. The delicious British fare served here included Bangers and Mash, Fisherman's Pie, Vegan Chicken Curry and Ploughman's Platter. You can’t go wrong though with a simple order of the Fish & Chips!

P.S. If you’re crazy like me and looking for a Hot Butter Beer in August, it’s the only place in the parks currently serving this seasonal drink! ☕️

The new Great Movie Escape Room in Universal's City Walk was SO much fun!! 🎬

You can choose from Jurassic World: Escape or Back to the Future: OUTATIME. It was a tough pick, but I’m a big Back to the Future fan so we chose that one! ⚡️🕰️

Here, Biff is at it again! He’s stolen Doc Brown’s newest time travel device to sabotage the timeline for his gain. It was up to us to follow Doc’s clues to find the prototype, track down Biff, and save the day before we were “OUTATIME!”

This was seriously such a fun and unique activity! Trust me, you’ve never experienced anything like this in the past, present or future. And thank goodness for the girls - we would’ve never made it out without them!

I can’t wait to go back and escape Jurassic World! 🦖

*Choose from individual tickets or private group adventures of up to 8.

We had an amazing day yesterday cooling down at Volcano Bay! 💦 🌋

Volcano Bay is actually Universal Orlando’s 3rd theme park! That’s right - Universal Orlando is actually comprised of THREE amazing theme parks: Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, and Volcano Bay, Universal’s one-of-a-kind, tropical themed waterpark.

Now when most people think of water parks, they probably think of water slides and wave pools with bare-bones designs. Universal’s Volcano Bay isn’t that kind of park though. With charming theming, a host of island-inspired dining options, and plenty of rides for guests of all ages, Volcano Bay is the perfect addition to any Orlando vacation.

One of my favorite features of Volcano Bay is its TapuTapu technology. TapuTapu is the key behind Universal Orlando’s goal of no lines at this park. This wristband allows you to hold your spot in a virtual line and enjoy other attractions until your time is called! How cool is that?!⌚️

08/23/2024

My daughter is insane! Sign reads:

⚠️ ‼️ WARNING: ⚠️‼️
This attraction is a high speed free-fall slide that begins in an enclosed capsule with a trap door, while riders plunge through a tube into a pool 125 feet below.

Would you ride?

08/22/2024

Here’s to sunshine and silver linings! ☀️🍹🩶

08/22/2024

It’s the perfect day for Volcano Bay! ☀️🌋💦

They say when life gives you lemons, make
lemonade. 🍋 Well, I guess a Starbucks Pink Drink is gonna have to do!

Unfortunately, my annual girls’ trip did not go as anticipated this year…. Upon arrival in Florida, I tested positive for Covid 19…. So needless to say, we were unable to board the Disney Wish as originally planned. 😩

To be honest, I am completely devastated and heartbroken. 💔 We have had this trip in the works for well over a year. I feel I let my daughter down and my friends as well. 😭

However, I am grateful to be a Travel Agent and have the knowledge and experience I do. I cannot imagine navigating all of this without one!

Also, two words for you: TRAVEL. PROTECTION.‼️ Because I purchased the cruise insurance, everyone in my party was able to receive a full refund!

I can’t tell you how many times I hear, “Nah, we don’t need insurance.” Well, nobody ever ‘wants’ to need it, but I’m here to tell you, you never ‘want’ to find yourself in a position that you do and don’t have it!

So after several days of hiding out at Cocoa Beach, we are determined to make the best of the situation and salvage what we can of this trip.

And you know what?? It’s gonna be EPIC!!

Any guesses where we’re headed?

P.S. Them cruise nails on point though, right?💅🏻

There’s no better way to kick off vacation than with the ONE & ONLY Nestor Gaviria.

Flights are stressful. Suitcases are heavy. Let someone else carry that weight! 🧳
