Santa Cruz Boardwalk

If you are near northern california and looking for a quick getaway, try Santa Cruz Boardwalk in the bay area. Santa Cruz Boardwalk is a popular tourist destination as well as for the locals. It offers tons of activity and fun for the whole family like roller coaster rides, novelty shops, snack bars, and of course the view of california pacific coast and easy access to the beach area so that you can stroll in the sand or enjoy the scenery while you sit in your beach chair. The sand is still there, but be sure to take along with you some walking shoes or slippers if you plan to walk along the beach because i think it is better to walk in the sand there with your shoes/slippers on.



Santa Cruz Boardwalk is a popular tourist destination in the bay area of northern CA, so you can expect lots of people specially during the weekends and holidays, where everyone else are off-work and off-school.

If you decide to visit Santa Cruz Boardwalk one day, and decide to stay overnight in a hotel nearby, i think the sunset view in the pacific ocean would truly be worth the wait!

Watch out for your carry-on bags

Dont ruin your vacation even before it even began! Before you start packing your bags, make sure that you are fully aware of the new airline rules and regulations as far as what is allowed as carry-on, what are the allowed sizes and weight of each bags.

Just recently, my brother lost a lot of money by packing expensive lotions (he bought as giveaways) in his carry-on bag! I heared in the news about a year ago that lotions, shampoos, toothpaste are no longer allowed in your airline carry-on bags. Unfortunately, I forgot to warn my brother about it, and he got caught off-guard at the airport and had to leave all lotions in the airport. He already check-in all his other bags and it was surely a hassle to go get to the queue and go through all the process all over again!




So if you plan to go on a trip by plane, it would probably save you a lot of time and money by knowing in advance what items are allowed and what are not as carry-on or check-ins. If you have not flawn within a year or so, chances are new set of rules have been added to the old ones. To verify these stuff, it would not hurt if you call your serving airline ahead of time, before you start packing so you can pack properly without encountering a problem at the airport. You do not really want to start a long-awaited trip with a headache in the airport .

See the Sunrise at Daytona Beach

DAYTONA BEACH in Florida, is a beautiful long miles beach with sand beach frontage that stretch all the way to Miami beach! Unlike most tropical beaches where you see mostly trees and small cottages along the beach, in contrary, Daytona beach as far as your eyes can see, you see tall hotels and condos one after the other, barely any trees, few palm trees here and there.

Surprisingly they still allow people to drive their vehicles in the sand and get a nice parking in the beach and can easily get whatever you need in the car at anytime. THey also have quad/ATV 4WD rentals and have a nice ride in the beach. The best part in Daytona Beach is that you can walk miles and miles of beach stretch (as far as your legs can take), checking out different restaurants and snacks bars along the way, so its always good idea to have dollars in you while walking along the beach.



They also have lifeguards on duty on particular times of day so aside from helping you incase you drift too far in the ocean deep, they will also alarm you to get off the water when the sharks decide to lurk around and might decide you are dinner to them!

Expect great surprises at Daytona Beach like waking up in the morning and looking down from the balcony you see big nice sand messages that some people surprise their love ones with early in the mornings. They also have planes with ads in the tail, birds hunting for fishes, and and cannot-be-missed early sunrise they have! For best sunrise viewing, wake up around 4:30 in the morning get ready and head towards the beach while waiting for the sun to come, where camera is a must, of course. On the downside, unfortunately, you can tell that some of the beach sands got damaged in different hurricane storms that hit Florida each year.

Daytona Beach in Florida is definitely a place to check out. It is a great place to unwind, have a relaxing family vacation and enjoy the sunshine.

Just be prepare if you visit Florida, it is best to expect the unexpected rain, lightnings and thunderstorms that may suddenly come out of nowhere. You can stroll in the city in the sunny morning, and you find yourself get stuck in one of the shop like a salmon with all other wonderers in the afternoon waiting for the lightning to stop. They also have really really hot summer days, more than 100 degrees like CA!

Magic Everywhere at Orlando Florida

FLORIDA is definitely a vacation capital of the world. They have nice tropical weather out there, lots of sunshine.

Orlando Florida is designed with tourists in mind. It is a very tourist-friendly city, they have nice side of the road walkways for on-the-foot wonderers. They have well-developed bus stops and helpful street guides properly placed in different parts of the city. It is no surprise they design Orlando this way, they have Universal Studio, Disney World, Seaworld, and a lot more! They also have beautiful dinner shows, my favorite is Arabian Knights, its totally magical, the horses are way talented.

But if you visit Florida, it is best to expect the unexpected rain, lightnings and thunderstorms that may suddenly come out of nowhere.
