Puerto Rico All Star Vacation Island

This post brought to you by Puerto Rico, The All-Star Island. All opinions are 100% mine.

Have you ever vacationed in the Caribbean Islands?  I have mentioned that we have traveled a couple of times down to the islands.  Today I will share with you one of the many islands to visit, Puerto Rico.  It is a wonderful vacation destination filled with world class attractions. Whether you're a golfer, foodie, the adventure type, or a beach hopper, Puerto Rico has everything that you want in a nice relaxing vacation.

Puerto Rico has 270 miles of coastline and featured in the Top 10 beaches from Travel Channel -- including Flamenco Beach in Culebra, often cited as one of the best beaches in the world. You can glow like an angel in the water in the Bioluminescent bays. You can visit the only rain forest under US national park service, El Yunque, and climb to the clouds. History Buffs can enjoy old world charm of San Juan. Adventurers can enjoy horseback riding or the magnificent Camuy caverns that runs through the 3rd largest subterranean river in the world. Foodies can experience the delicacies of Puerto Rican gastronomy and its famous Rums.

  

El Yunque is the only subtropical rain forest in the U.S. National Forest Service, a place so indescribable that it must be seen, heard and felt. It’s one of our must-visit destinations.

With 25 courses around the island to choose from, there are fairways suited for any experience level, from beginner to pro in Golf.  In fact, The Puerto Rico Open has been part of the PGA Tour since 2008.

Toro Verde features the longest Zip Line on Earth: La Bestia. It uses a specially designed harness to soar through the air across 4,745 feet of terrain.  

There is so much to do and see in this island and if you want to read more about it, visit seepuertorico.com where you will be shown the best itineraries for your next vacation.  The best part of visiting this island is that you don't need a visa or passport or foreign currency.  It is part of the states, so you just take a photo ID and hop on the plane to your dream get away.

Travel Diary: Night Photos- End of Trip

  Here are a few of my favorite dusk to dark photos from the resort in the Dominican Republic.  

This resort is called Iberostar Costa Dorada.  It is gorgeous, especially at night when
the different colors pour forth in every direction with the help of lights.  My photos do no justice.

The food was amazing, the service was awesome, entertainment was amusing, and the wedding was
fabulous.  If you are ever in that part of the world, this is a must.  It has been voted one of the top
resorts to visit around the world.  This is the last bunch of photos of our trip, I hope that you enjoyed.

Travel Diary: Around the Pool

The hotel provides many activities to keep you entertained and the view alone is amazing.

When you step toward the back of the pool, you can see the mountains in the background

and it is a beautiful sight.  

Travel Diary: The Beach

 We arrived in the Caribbean after the tropical storm had seized.  The weather was beautiful

after that, but the beach brought a lot of seaweed.  They cleaned it everyday, but it just kept coming.

We didn't let that stop us from enjoying the ocean.  Follow me on our walk to the beach below.

Isn't it beautiful?  They provide a lot of activities such as snorkeling, kayaking and more.
If you are ever in the Caribbean, this is one stop you might want to consider. 

Travel Diary: Arrival at the Resort

We arrived at our hotel in the afternoon and the first thing we saw when we entered the lobby was this

enormous rustic chandelier, they have several in the lobby area, then the water feature in the center of the lobby surrounded by beautiful furnishings from the island.  After check-in, we walked by the courtyard and caught a glimpse of the architecture and cafe-style iron tables and chairs.  

Did I mention there are flamingos, peacocks & turtles?  We were all loving it!

Back from Vacation!

 You have probably noticed a two week respite on this blog
and perhaps other social media pages.  That is because I was spending time with
my family, I was researching ideas for my Etsy shop, soaking in the the beautiful Caribbean
sun,  and I participated in a destination wedding; my sister got married!
It was a beautiful, fun and inspiring wedding.  I am so happy for my little sister
and wish her & my new brother in law much happiness.
The photos above are a snip of the two weeks, this is the resort we stayed in
for the wedding and it was gorgeous, we loved it so much we extended our stay there for three more days.

Hello June!

Happy June everyone!  I hope that you are all getting ready for summer.
School is out in our area and our first stop was the beach.  Nothing beats gorgeous
 clear blue water, white powdered sand and plenty of fun.

Have any of you been experiencing time going faster than normal?
The months are zooming on by!

We hope that you will enjoy your summer while we try to enjoy ours.
