St. Augustine, Florida









We are having a workation...okay I made that up...the word... but we are working/vacationing in St. Augustine, Florida.
This is a great city to walk, sight see, shop and go out to eat at various restaurants. We are staying in a house that we have rented in the historical section from an individual but there are many great hotels and even better Bed and Breakfasts.

We have brought our dogs Riley and Miley with us...so renting a house was the best option for us!
We ate at a great Sea food restaurant on the water called Santa Maria...the weather was amazing so we ate outside! The food was even better!



Tourist like to feed seagulls...
They did get a little close!

Cozumel












We went to Cozumel last July and in December just before Christmas on a Cruise. It is a perfect time for us to get away as it is a long weekend since we are small business owners it is difficult for us to be away for longer periods. We love Royal Caribbean and they go right out of Tampa so that is very convenient for us. We are doing smaller getaways this year as the economy has cut our wings a bit!


I was having my hair colored last Friday and Theresa told me that if you find a cruise you are interested in going to...if you show up at the port the day of departure...ready to go, meaning packed and pass port in hand...you can save as much as 50%. Has anyone heard of this? Have you tried it?
I am going to call and see if I can get some more information about this and try it! I think I will plan two vacations...one to go on the cruise and then the other to stay in the port city in case I can't get on the ship!! Either way...our vacation will be exciting!
