Chesapeake Vacation Two Day Weekend
Last week or so, I went to Chesapeake Beach Resort with the family. It had been forever since we had something that resembled a real vacation. We had visited before ages ago. So, it was a good a time as any to revisit the place. Plus, I was in a fresh shrimp type of mood. The hotel is a stone’s throw away from my favorite fish restaurant. It ended up raining twice during the vacation. The first time was late at night. This gave us plenty of time to fool about the pool. I also did Kayaking for an hour...
Labor Day Foodie Wahoo Desserts and Chesapeake Breakfast
Today, I wanted to rant about what I ate during my vacation. I first went to my usual breakfast place in Delicias de Espana. Afterwards, mom drove us down to Islamorada. Bro was very stressed. So, it was a good excuse as any to go on vacation. After we settled in the hotel, we went to the pool. At night, we ate at Wahoo Bar and grill. It was amusing to see how the Key Lime pie had changed over the years. The whip cream on top is extra crispy, which is nice. The cheesecake has now different topping...
Manolo Revisited Foodie Travel
It had been ages since I visited Manolo. It is not that the restaurant got bad. Rather, we moved pretty far away from Miami Beach. It became a real pain to visit that beach and all the places around it. So, this weekend we worked up the energy to visit Manolo again. It was decked out for the FIFA event. At night, the place gets super crowded with fans. This is why it is important to visit it super early if you just want to eat food. We ordered the usual: hotdogs and pizza. Mom had breakfast. It was all...
Midtown Creamery New Ice Cream Shop Travel
I was looking for a new place to eat something sweet. It was then when I became aware of a new ice cream place that opened near my home. I decided to pay it a visit since I liked the photos of the ice creams they had on their socials. They got a little bit ham on the decoration of your ice cream. The flavors are also gourmet. I have officially visited 3 times already. I tried most of the flavors. The bubble waffle cones are made fresh. They have a fun pancake like flavor. The toppings come included with...
Key West Travel Nice Cute
I wanted to show you some travel photos that I took in Key West. A good chunk of them is from the butterfly preserve. I also took photos in the Museums. Both are pretty fun places to hang out. IT has been like forever since I went anywhere. So, I decided to just look at the old travel photos. It is nice to see what a place used to look like. Key West has changed a lot over the years. The pandemic and the hurricanes did a number on the place. For the most part, there...
