Cruise Ship Food: 10 Days of Eating

If there is one thing that I miss the very most from my cruise trip, besides seeing all the beautiful islands, is the food. 24 hours of free food included in your cruise package is what I think heaven must be like.

I love food, so in reality it was my heaven.

I decided to take a photo of almost each meal I had during my cruise ship. So I hope you’re hungry because you’re about to head to delish-town. (I’m corny, I know)

Potato Chip Rock – Mt. Woodson Hike – A Local Beginner’s Guide

If you’re from Southern California you know about about the Potato Chip Rock hike in San Diego, Poway to be more exact. It’s a local favorite and one helluva hike up that’s for sure.

I’ve actually hiked up to this ‘Potato Chip Rock’ three times. While I’m by no means an expert, I’d like to think if I’ve hiked this more than once in my life that I can give at least any newcomers a bit of a guide on how to survive this uphill climb of hell to reach that wonderful photo op at the top.

Two Hours in Pisa, Italy

Italy. Honestly one of my favorite countries. It has wonderful food and beautiful cities. As much as I wanted to spend days in each country if I could, all it took was just a few hours in Pisa, Italy and we were all set.

Pisa, if you did not know is where The Leaning Tower of Pisa is. And that’s basically the town.

Garden of the Gods in Colorado

Colorado has been one of my favorite cities to ever visit that I’ve visited multiple times at this point in my life. Over FIVE times to be exact.

When I first visited I wanted to document every bit of it. So I did. By visiting the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs

I have already put out 3 days of my Colorado Vlogs, you can watch them all here. Or if you want specific days you see Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, and Day 4 .

2 Years of Arizona Living

It’s amazing the many things that can change in a year, to a month, to a week, to even a day. I mean my book is going to officially be out in 5 DAYS! And I have officially been living in Arizona for 2 years this month!

This to me is so crazy.

Did I ever think that I was going to end up in Arizona? No. I did not think that whatsoever. It was the same with me never ever thinking I’d have lived in South Dakota, but I did that too.

Samana, Dominican Republic – Island Life # 4

Welcome back to day 3 of my book launch. Also happy Labor day! As for the title, I’m not talking about my book, The Princess Center (Out September 14), it’s going to be about Samaná, Dominican Republic!

YAY! I figured, I’d give a little break from my book launch, I mean it is labor day, we all deserve a break. Which is why I wanted to continue on with my Eastern Caribbean Cruise, I want to introduce our last island, which was Samaná, Dominican Republic.

How Nice are you France?

Get it? I can’t help when I’m punny for all the pun jokes around Nice, France.

Anyways, I needed to continue on with my European trip because there was still a whole slew of places I had visited and never got to write about. One of the lovely places being Nice, which is located in the south of France.

The Ultimate Guide to the Mall of America

Ever wonder what it’s like to venture into a mall that’s the size of an amusement park? Well, look no further than the infamous Mall of America. And let me tell you, it’s probably even bigger than some amusement parks.

I visited the Mall of America back when I was living in South Dakota as a little mini getaway to Minnesota. You can read about my morning in Minneapolis and at the Spoonbridge and Cherry Park right here.

Now I’ve heard about Mall of America, which is located in Bloomington, Minnesota, which is not too far from Downtown Minneapolis. I’ve seen Mall of America on TV loads of time. I mean Travel Channel always would feature this place as a place to visit for any and all people. And it for sure didn’t disappoint when I visited.

The Largest Brewery in the World – Coors Brewery

That’s right, you read the title correctly. Coors Brewery is the largest brewery in the world.

As a part of my Colorado series (and if you haven’t read them, check them out here) on this day my sister and I ventured out to Golden Colorado to go to this free self-guided tour.

That’s right I said it’s free. We parked in a free lot, with a free shuttle and then with the free self-guided tour we ended up getting free beer. Yep, I said free a lot in this last sentence because who doesn’t like free things?
