Universal Studios Adventure Island
My boyfriend, Zach, and I made a spontaneous daytrip to Orlando this weekend and went to Universal Studios Adventure Island amusement park. It was my first time stepping into an Orlando park other than Disney or SeaWorld.

Remarkable Medellín
Visiting Medellín in Colombia: The Country of Beauty is like stepping into a fantastic story — literally, as the city in the Western Colombian Andes region inspired Disney’s Encanto. Here, valleys, the world’s tallest palms, vibrant communities, colorful houses, garden-like balconies and more prove reality is more picturesque than anything on film. And it’s especially more tempting following Medellín’s remarkable transformation, shedding its troubled past and reawakening as a city of innovation, art, cultural richness, modern infrastructure, thriving tourism and resiliency.
Festive SeaWorld
Florida reached record low temperatures this Christmas holiday, causing people to bundle up, light fireplaces and sip on hot beverages. Perfect timing, as it made Christmas more alive. I have been amazed at how innovative Florida is at keeping the spirit of Christmas traditions. For example, I could go ice skating on Christmas Eve in an outdoor skating rink made of ice, which interested me since typically temperatures are well above freezing here.
Escape to Space
Suppose you are a science nerd or a space fanatic or into learning about the possibility of human existence on other planets. In that case, you might know about NASA's Artemis 1, which was supposed to leave Earth by Labor Day, making its way to the moon. If so, some of you may have traveled to view this $40 billion, 233-foot rocket launch into space. I drove more than 100 miles hoping to watch it take off. The sad news is it hasn't happened yet, and I did not watch history in the making this past weekend. But thanks to Disney World, I got an excellent alternative on the Millennium Falcon and in the Star Wars Galaxy Edge section of the theme park.

The Time Loop of Cabana Bay Beach Resort
When one travels to Orlando, they know they’re entering the Theme Park Capital of the world. And, in my humble opinion, one of the ways Orlando continued to stay on theme is by extending the concept into its hotels and resorts.
