Is Legoland, Florida Worth the Trip?

After Hurricane Dorian derailed our Kennedy Space Center plans, we found some open days in south Florida. As I scrolled through my Instagram feed I saw several posts about a Hurricane Relief Day at Legoland. It was a chance to visit Legoland at a discounted rate that would benefit Hurricane Relief efforts. Seemed like a […]

Visiting Fairhope, Alabama with Kids

We’ve been missing the Netherlands a lot lately. I think we mostly miss the relaxed vibe that came with walking and biking everywhere. We were more subject to our whims there. Things in a car seem to require more planning. With that in mind we decided to do an overnight in Fairhope, Alabama. A small […]

Typhoon Lagoon in January

Completely unplanned, we found ourselves at a Disney water park in January and it was amazing! What the park lacked in warmth it made up for in zero wait for every ride at the park. I actually may never go to a water park in the summer again…ok that is not true, but the off-season […]

Swim with Manatees in the Crystal River

If you are in Central Florida in winter then your plans should include seeing manatees. It is one of our favorite Florida activities, particularly as a way to break up the drive back to the panhandle. This time we rented kayaks and swimming gear from Paddles Outdoor Rental. They were so flexible and great to […]

Bamahenge & Dinosaurs in the Woods // Alabama

The moment I found out there was a full scale, although not complete, fiberglass replica of Stonehenge (named Bamahenge) less than an hour away from our house I made plans to visit. Jeff and I have been to the real Stonehenge in the U.K. but never got around to taking the boys. They were familiar […]

Weeks Bay Pitcher Plant Bog, Alabama // Photos

The Gulf Coast is the natural home of many of the world’s carnivorous plants. These Gulf Coast Pitcher Plant bogs are unique habitats that exist nowhere else on earth. Pitcher plants bloom in the spring, but even a fall visit or winter visit to the Weeks Bay Pitcher Plant Bog can be spectacular. Our visit […]

The Secretly Awesome Tour of Mobile with WildNative Tours

The Secretly Awesome Tour of Mobile, operated by WildNative Tours, is a family-friendly two-hour boat trip through the harbor, the bay and the estuary. It is an incredible opportunity to see what makes Mobile unique and learn about industry and nature. It left us wanting to see more of Mobile. We took the Secretly Awesome […]

De Soto National Memorial & Jr. Ranger Program // Florida

We completely underestimated everything De Soto National Memorial had to offer. We stopped by on a recent trip to Tampa thinking we would spend a few minutes in the visitors center, but instead we closed it down. We spent all afternoon completing the Jr. Ranger Program and exploring the beautiful waterfront property. The biggest tip […]

Canoeing Blackwater River // Florida

This post contains affiliate links. On a beautiful fall weekend in October we joined some friends, who have older kids, on a canoeing trip at Blackwater River State Park. All our adventures as of late seem to be centered around water. The kids continue to be more confident on the water, which makes the trips […]

Mermaids at Weeki Wachee Springs // Florida

Have you heard about the Mermaids at Weeki Wachee Springs State Park? A visit to this legendary park has been on our Florida bucket list since moving here a year ago. We finally stopped by in conjunction with a trip to Tampa. Weeki Wachee was originally founded in 1947 as a tourist attraction in the […]
