Travel Diaries: Favorite bits from Florida trip

the Top 10 List

During my walks with Roxy amidst the fall foliage, I can still hardly believe that we live in England, and that a couple of weeks ago I was still in Florida waiting for my visa!

 Thinking about our favorite bits for the this blog post we remembered many wonderful memories from the Sunshine State that remind us how fortunate we are and will keep us warm through the cold winter months.  And in no particular order......


1) The city of Fort Pierce. Okay, so I am biased, I will always have a special affinity and fond memories from living on the Treasure Coast. Ft. Pierce in particular has come a long way in the last 20 years and has so much to offer including the Downtown Farmer's Market; Nelson's Family Market; and the idyllic Fort Pierce marina, just to name a few. One night a couple of us enjoyed beautiful views and cocktails at On the Edge.

2) Camping and riding quad bikes at River Ranch with our friends Jen, Phil and Cody.
3) Spending lots of uninterrupted time with my bestie, including exploring Disney's resorts, pigging out on sausage dip while watching chick flicks, and walking the beach.

4) Walton Rocks Dog Beach - one of our little family's 'happy place'.
5) Enjoying a double date at Archie's Seabreeze with my niece and her beau, and listening to the live music.
6)My husband's 1st horseback ride! Proud of you babe!
7)Sitting on Jen and Phil's back porch laughing with friends (and  maybe there was some alcohol involved!)
8) Couples night out at Conchy Joe's, singing and swaying along to the live reggae band.
9)Making vision boards with my nieces - for the one person out there that may be interested in what they are, imagine your life 5, 10 years from now and make a collage. Visualization can be a very helpful tool for focusing your energies, I find. 
10)Teaching my family to play Mexican Train dominoes.

Until next time Florida!
