Walt Disney World 2012

I finally got it figured out on how to upload pictures the easy way that it used to be. I searched for any assistance from their technician, and found out that all I need to do is to switch to its "old interface". Sounds like Facebook with its new timeline, huh?

I will add more description and a little story-telling later, after dinner. :-)

(August 8, 2012)

Ok, I am back. Whew! It took me almost three weeks to come back. Pardon my negligence, I am extremely busy these days... (and it feels like forever, trust me). I can't recall anymore when did I start being extremely busy that updating on my blog seemed impossible, but somehow, my husband and I were managed to had a couple of days break on that last weekend of the month of June. We decided to spend them at the Walt Disney World. (Thank God that it was possible.

There are four theme park in Walt Disney World (Orlando, Florida). We agreed to pick the Disney's Hollywood Studio. Although I haven't been in any other park than this one, but in my opinion, it was great for grown ups like myself and my husband.

Among all the "booths" or "rides" (whatever you call it), my favorite was the "Hollywood Tower Hotel". It was our first one, and was a great way to start our day. Plunging in the pitch darkness while the elevator shaft either drops you that will literally takes you off from your seat or take you up and up that leaves you clueless on where it will take you. That was fun though.

My husband's favorite was "The Great Movie Ride" where it took us to the shooting location where the action took places and the characters (wax) were there, too. It was cool when we were in the middle of John Wayne shooting action with his enemies.

The whole theme was fantastic. It surely beat the stress out from us. Once again, I would like to thank God for that wonderful opportunity that he gave us.

Thanksgiving Weekend At Myrtle Beach

My husband’s relative (the ones that I haven’t met yet) will be with us in a few days from now. They are from north and they will be spending the Thanksgiving weekend with us. We will be having a big Thanksgiving Dinner at the basketball court. It will surely be another wonderful dinner for all of us. We did this same thing last year, too. My problem is that I have to work on Thanksgiving Day. I wish I don’t have to, so that I can spend more time with them and can help with the preparation, too. On their way back home, they will be staying in South Carolina for a weekend escapade. They want to take advantage of the last days of the warm days before they will go back to the north.

I am jealous. I have always wished to spend a weekend in South Carolina, specifically in Myrtle Beach. The beaches there are fantastic. If you have been there, too, I believe you would agree with me on this. Everything about Myrtle Beach will take your breath away, from the lazy river to the contemporary architecture. It is their goal to build this resort into a place where the beach and the warm weather will wipe away your stress and make you feel relaxed. It is just such a perfect place for family fun, getaways, weddings, convention… or just to be by yourself. It is no wonder why over 13 million visit there annually.

Though this place is very popular, it is not hard to make a reservation through http://avistaresort.com .

Our Trip to SoCal

Guest post written by Ben Jarvis
.
This past weekend my wife and I went to California to visit my son and his family. We are from a small town, and I must say that we were excited to do a lot of the touristy stuff and see all the sites t that we’ve seen on TV for years and years.
.
My wife wanted to see Beverly Hills , and I wanted to see the famous sign in Hollywood, plus a laundry list of other landmarks. Every time we travel it’s a non-stop occasion and we make sure to wear ourselves out—hey, that’s what you lay out the big bucks for, right?
.
While we wanted fulfilled a big agenda, the number one priority was spending time with family. It’s been months since we’ve soon our son and his wonderful grandkids, and we really wanted to spend as much time with them as possible. We even got a hearing test in California before visiting. We wanted to ensure that we could get as much out our visit as we could.
.
My son’s family is doing great, but we didn’t really give them a chance to rest while we were in town. They could barely keep up with their touristic parents.

Spring Morning In The RV

This picture was a little more than a year ago, where my husband and I were visiting Uncle Therman and Aunt Anna by the campground. That is their life; spending weeks in an RV at a campground. They are a retired couple and just love going from one campsite to another campsite. Well, with all the money that they were able to put up for their retirement plan, they just deserve to have this kind of lifestyle.

My husband and I love doing the same thing, too. We love the feeling of doing some adventure. We spent a couple of days in a campsite right after our wedding. That was so cool. We wanted to do it again, but we always end up putting it later. We don’t have our own RV, but my husband know where to find rv rentals . CampingWorld.com is the nation’s largest new and used RV dealer network. Their RV’s are unbelievably affordable, stable and “inside-out” appealing. If you are planning for a family trip, I suggest that you consider renting RV’s. I believe that it will turn out to be the best vacation your family ever had because that is just what our family deserve.

Spending Fall At Branson

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Geile Leon. All opinions are 100% mine.

Fall is here. Those who have business that only operates on late spring and the entire season of summer, they always do their vacation on late fall. I know some. My Filipino friend in Michigan, for instance, their business is bicycle and bicycle parts. It is always busy on late spring through early fall, because it is the time of the year that people uses their bicycles. That is why during late fall, they always travel around America for a long-week break. They take it as a chance to have a vacation and just enjoy their time together.

I know that last year they were in the west part of the country. That was what she told me, and they had a great time. This year, their target will be on the Midwest part of America. She mentioned to me that Missouri would be one of them. I love Missouri. I heard a lot of good things about them. We made plans, but it was always canceled and ends up somewhere else because of some circumstances that can’t be avoided. My husband told me about how awesome this state is with all the popular attractions that he believes I would like to see, specifically around Branson. It is known as the entertainment capital of the Midwest. I heard about their famous Hollywood Wax Museum. He wants to take me to ’57 Heaven Car Museum, too, as cars are his passion ever since he was a kid.

Talking about Branson, Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing and the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel offers exclusive Fall in The City Package with the rate starting at $309.50 per night. This offer will not only avail you to two-night accommodations, but you’ll also receive two tickets on the Showboat Branson Belle for dinner with the show, two adult tickets to Silver Dollar City with a 50^th Anniversary Silver Dollar City Souvenir Book and a $25 hotel food and beverage credit.

Another offer is the Shopping Package, starting with just $164 per night. It includes deluxe accommodations, a breakfast buffet for two and a $25 gift card which may be used at any store in the Tanger Outlet Mall which is just close by. This is really an awesome offer. Plus, their location is within the area where almost everything are accessible such as to shops, boutiques, restaurants, a river walk, golf courses, museums, theaters, theme parks and other attractions. Thinking about it, I figure that driving to Branson, Missouri from Merritt Island, Florida would take 18-20 hours. It is 1172 miles all the way. Hmm, I love traveling on road. For me, this is what makes the vacation more exciting.

A Trip To Cancun

This is a guest post by Krista Elix
.
I never thought I would ever visit anywhere outside the United States. But the company my wife works for set up a trip for all the managers and their spouses to go to Cancun, Mexico. I was excited and scared at the same time. Sure, I’ve heard of Cancun and all the fun things to do there, but being a visitor in another country kind of worried me.
.
I checked out the hotel we would be staying at online, and it was gorgeous. It has sandy white beaches and plenty of entertainment to keep us busy. It was also an all inclusive hotel, which meant that food and drinks were free. I had never been to an all inclusive hotel before, so I was fired up about going.
.
The day of our Mexican getaway had finally arrived. We had packed the night before, so all we had to do was shower and load the car with our luggage. I set our ADT in Houston for the house and we were off to Cancun.
.
When we got there I immediately realized that I had too much clothing on. It was 29 degrees when we left home, but it had to be 90 degrees in Mexico. I sweated through the bus ride to our hotel and could not believe my eyes when we arrived there. It was even more beautiful than the pictures on the internet showed it to be.
.
We got our wristbands that we had to wear to get the free food and drinks, unpacked and headed for the bar closest to the water. We ordered drinks and sat there in the glorious water and just soaked in the atmosphere. We’d swim a little and get another drink. I forgot all about being in another country and just had fun.

What About Myrtle Beach?

I was talking about our plan for our wedding anniversary vacation. My husband and I are aware that our initial plan would need quite a lot of money to make it happen, but we have a plan B. It is always good to have a plan B. The plan B is for somewhere closer, and of course, it would mean much less expense. In this way, whatever will happen, everything will still be in good order.
.
Our plan B is to go to Myrtle Beach. It is in South Carolina. It is perfect for spring and summer. My husband’s cousin was the one who suggested to us to try that place because they have been there and they liked there very much. I was looking at the internet about the place and I get excited. I can almost see ourselves in that beautiful Myrtle Beach Hotel . It would surely be fantastic to stay in an Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Hotel , feeling the warmth of the beach sand as we walk barefoot on it.
.
Visit SeasideMB.com. It is where you can find the luxury Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Hotels , with their spacious accommodations and attentive 4-star services. They provide a professional staff and the finest amenities for your vacation. Enjoy the panoramic view from their rooms. It’s an ideal location for families and a few rounds of golf, too.

Caribbean Vacation Need Not Be Expensive With All Inclusive Caribbean Vacations.

Our second wedding anniversary is only four months away. My husband and I both like the idea of going to places where we had never been to. We did it on our first year wedding anniversary and we will be doing it again this time. Of course, I am putting this plan in God’s hand because we are not the one who holds our future. And it is safe to say that if God is willing, we will be celebrating our second wedding anniversary in the Caribbean. My husband had always wished to take me there. I would love to go there, too. It sounds like an expensive celebration, but if you know where and how to find good deals, you can have your dream Caribbean vacation that cost less than you expected.
.
Take for instance this website, Breezes.com. They give free nights stay in any of their resorts if you book your vacation on this spring to summer. . Their “Super-Inclusive” offer means all your meals, all your drinks, all your entertainment, incredible variety of land and water sports, with professional instruction are all included in the rate. I call this the all inclusive CaribbeanI couldn’t find any better vacation deals than what they can offer. They have excellent service for vacation and holiday plans specifically in Caribbean area.

With their all inclusive beach resorts , it will surely be not as expensive as it sound, but purely fun and bliss.
.
If you are planning for a Caribbean vacation, too, I suggest that you visit their website and get the best deals you can ever have from them.

Spring Time Is Tee Time

Being here in Florida, these past few weeks’ news were talking a lot about the big figure in the golf sport, Tiger Woods. I am a big fan on him, and I hope that he can soon bring his life back to whole again. I started to become interested with the sports golf during the peak of Tiger Woods’ success. Golf, according to others, is considered the most expensive sports because of all the expense that goes with it; one example is the golf shoes which were reported to be very expensive. The golf's increased popularity was attributed to Woods' presence. He was credited for dramatically increasing prize money in golf, generating interest in new audiences as the first person of African American descent to win the Masters, and for drawing the largest TV audiences in golf history.
.
After the ever-long winter we are experiencing here in Florida, my husband is looking forward for an interesting springtime Myrtle Beach Golf vacation. He thought that golfing would be a good idea. It is a good way of family bonding together, and at the same time, introducing this sport to the new generation in our family.
.

Meet Unitard, Our Vacation Super Hero

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Vacation Rental Organization. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hi people! Have you met this man in the picture yet? He is our modern hero in frugality. He is a friend to me and to those who loves savings, deals, discounts and everything that are cheap. He is Unitard, in a skin-tight one-piece garment with long legs and sometimes long sleeves. I found him in the website of Vacation Rental. Actually, the website is not just about this funny picture and its story. It is about how Unitard is tirelessly fighting for the happiness of the families who want to have a wonderful vacation. Renting a vacation house is much cheaper, comfortable and packed with a whole bunch of fun than getting a hotel room. And... like all the rest of our favorite super heroes, Unitard is on the watch 24/7 to rescue the vacationer from making a mistake and will not rest until people learn the benefits of Vacation Rental .

.

Well, maybe some couples out there are planning a getaway for Valentine’s weekend. I have to warn you that Unitard may cramped up in the hotel reception counter, and to avoid that, may I suggest that you visit their site, watch their hilarious vacation rental commercial and learn from this funny story that they are sharing. Let’s be frugal and enjoy the best vacation we want to have.

Ski In Argentina

Now that I have my Green Card, my husband can take me anywhere he wants to go, especially outside USA like Canada, South America or Europe. Part of our wedding anniversary celebration is to go to some places that are new to both of us. Oh, we have a long list on that; it will depend on what we can afford on that time. One of the places that are on our list is Argentina. I didn’t know too much about this place and I even didn’t know that they also have snow in there until I found this website, ArgentinaSki.com. Then, it became one of the most interesting places that we really want to go. We have seen a lot of “tourism-related” TV show about Argentina, and all of them were just so amazing. Argentina is the second largest country is South America and contains a whole lot of incredible scenes and views such as the Puerto Moreno Glacier of Patagonia, Iguazu Falls of Litoral, and many more interesting spots and entertainment especially in the city of Buenos Aires.

Talking about vacation in Argentina, there I found about Ski in Argentina . It looks so cool. I didn’t know about that then. What is amazing is that not all Argentina Ski Resorts are that expensive. In fact, I have found some resorts from their site that are really “budget-friendly”. This site gives information travel site where you may choose hotels, trip packages or any excursion you may like to join. Cerro Catedral Ski Resort and Cerro Chapelco are among the best resorts in Argentina. This website can help you find a good deal of travelling plan and manage your trip in a way that all you have to do is to enjoy the experience.

Where Are You Going To Spend The New Year's Eve?

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of DiscoverLosAngeles.com. All opinions are 100% mine.

When I was still in the Philippines, I always made sure that I was not home on every New Year’s Eve. I either joined a community party that was held somewhere or be in a park with friends. Don’t ask me why because you may think that I am silly.

Last New Year’s Eve, my husband and I spent it in a dance hall with some of his relatives. It was such a wonderful night with delectable smorgasbord of heavenly foods. There was classic music and the best part was the watching of the fireworks which were so grand. I love the feeling of bidding farewell to 2009 (with thanksgiving on everything that it brought with) in a way of celebrating in style.

We were discussing how are we going to spend our New Year’s Eve this time. We could spend it on a cruise ship as he likes to do it very much, or going to Los Angeles to visit our newlywed cousin who, at the same time invited us over to visit them. My husband and I would love the feeling of bidding farewell to 2009 (with thanksgiving on everything that it brought with) in a way of celebrating in style at one of the premier los angeles hotels . We were looking at the Portofino Hotel & Yacht Club, Redondo Beach. The place is just so marvelous where you can watch the glamorous sunset or just keep an eye out for dolphins and sea lions.

If you are interested, too, check for LA new year's eve hotel specials . If you are planning to spend the New Year’s Eve there, make your reservations now at one of the beautiful hotels in los angeles . May you have a wonderful and happiest new year 2010.

Brian (my husband’s cousin’s son) and Samantha just love to have some fun together. Just two weeks ago, they were in Bahamas to enjoy the sun and at the same time was there to watch DMB. How we wish we were there, too, but since we just had moved here and we have to be careful in our spending of money. However, my husband and I were planning to have some holiday in Jamaica as soon as we get financially settled here. Oh, I would love to go those places, too.
.
I am talking about future, but then, it is wise to check and find out in advance on how much it will cost and which place would be the best to go. When it comes to vacation in Caribbean places, I always go to Breezes.com. It is a website with excellent service for vacation and holiday plans specifically in Caribbean area. I couldn’t find any better vacation deals than what they can offer. Their “Super-Inclusive” offer means absolutely all inclusive resort , such as: deluxe accommodation, all meals and snacks, unlimited premium beverages, land & water sports and more.
.
Jamaica is always the most popular place to go when it comes to Caribbean Island.

Need A Car For Hire In Spain?

My husband and I love to travel. This is our hobby. This is the advantage of having no baby yet. We love to see the places that God has wonderfully and uniquely made on every country. We want to be in awed at His creation. I believe we are not the two lonely people in the world with this dream. I know a lot of people who made a list of places they want to go before they die. I think we should start to make one, too. Definitely, Europe will be on the top of the list.

We Love Myrtle Beach

My husband told me that on every winter people from the north come down to stay here in the south. Well, I can’t blame them. That is why I am here, too. I just can’t stand the cold weather in Michigan during fall, winter and early spring. I am so happy that we are here now in Florida.
.
Aunt Kathy from Michigan and Aunt Jean from Virginia is here in Florida to stay until spring. They suggest that we spend few days in South Carolina to see the most popular Myrtle Beach. Well, I would like to. I love being there and I can go back there again and again without becoming sick of it. My husband and I always prefer Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Hotel.

Planning For The Philippine Trip

I am very happy today because my mother-in-law called us and announced to us that my Green Card has already arrived in the house and that they will forward the mail to us. Yes! I am so excited to have my card with me. Now, we can start planning for our visit to my family in the Philippines. Having a Green Card is very important to me. It will enable me to travel anytime and anywhere.

Talking about visiting my family in the Philippines, we want to stay in Singapore for a few days, too. There is something in that city that really attracts us; must be its popularity of their famous infrastructure and awesome sights and its booming industry. We were considering the thought of going there on our way going to Philippines. The good thing is that I just came across this great deal; Accor Hotels 3-Day Super Sale Asia Pacific .

I'll Be Closer To You, Myrtle

In less than two weeks from now, we will be on our way to Florida. We will be living there for good. Right now we are busy packing up our things. We will only be bringing our clothes and some very important things. Part of me is sad because we have to leave some of our things, but another part of me says this is going to be exciting because everything will be new. We will be starting all over again.
.
One of the many reasons why I am so happy that we will be living in Florida is because it will be closer to South Carolina. My husband and I really love South Carolina. South Carolina will only be less than eight hours from where we will be living. It will mean we can go there as often as we can. I'll be closer to you, Myrtle.
.
Talking about South Carolina, it is always the Myrtle Beach Resort that will come to my mind. To those who have been to Myrtle Beach, I am sure that they feel the same way, too.

Mallorca Ride

Our first year wedding anniversary was wonderful. We were in a place that both my husband and I had not been to. That is how we come up with the idea that on our every wedding anniversary, we will choose a place to go for our wedding anniversary celebration. That made me excited for our second wedding anniversary.
.
Spain is definitely on our list of the prospect places that we want to visit next. It is one of the most wanted country to visit, too. Beautiful and awesome places are too many to mention. Mallorca is one of the Balearic Islands, a series of Mediterranean islands that belong to Spain. It's a place where they say the sun never sets, because the sun shines nearly all the time on Mallorca, the people are notoriously hospitable, and the beaches are unsurpassed. Combined with the island's history and culture, this is a must-see destination.
.
Somebody had suggested to us that to make the most out of a trip to Spain, instead of joining a tour group, we will just take the Car Hire Mallorca . In that way, we can decide where we want to go and we are free to stay in certain places as desired without being conscious of time. We agree, that was a cool idea.

They offers a huge inventroy of cars for rent in countries all over the world at competitive prices. has a good reputation in cheap car rental.

Lobsters & Clams In Maine

I am from the beautiful country of Philippines and I feel so bless that I was given the chance to be here. Well, I believe that many people would want to travel around the world, too. I stumbled on this wonderful quote long time ago, and I don’t even remember who wrote this:
.

Experience, travel - these are as education in themselves.

The world is a book, and those that do not travel read only one page.

.
My husband and I love to travel and we both think we should travel around USA first. I have been to 9 states already and that would mean that I still have 41 states to go. Among the states that I really want to visit are New York, California, Hawaii, Maine and Chicago. Well, I believe this is not impossible. My husband and I’s vision is to be able to visit a new place as God would allow it.
.
Talking about Maine, it was my husband’s idea to make it one of our priorities. I asked him why and he just shared to me that Maine is a state known for its scenery, jagged, mostly rocky coastline, low, rolling mountains and its heavily forested interior- as well as for its seafood cuisine, especially lobsters and clams. This sounds great! My husband loves lobsters while I love clams. The famous Brown’s Wharf Inn, is the Boothbay Harbor ’s most spectacular marine restaurant and is loved by both local folks and visitors. For Boothbay Harbor Inn , Brown’s Wharf Inn is known for their warm, excellent and friendly service that gives you comfortable accommodation. Have a relaxing vacation at Boothbay Harbor Maine and just enjoy its panoramic view, dotted with fishing boats and pleasure craft.
