Sliding into the new week- Kalahari

Perhaps no other way to slide into the last full week of August except like this: youtube.com/shorts/pMuERCsgXHE

Definitely had fun on this particular ride at the Kalahari WaterPark in Round Rock, Texas. What an absolute joy it was to be able to feel the breeze of the wind gusts going down the tube and to feel the nice cold water from the gigantic splashes 😂. Does life truly get any better than that!

At first you go through the nervous energy of should I or shouldn’t I, then you take the plunge, only to get to the bottom and want to do it all over again!😃 Perhaps no better way to beat the heat than to take a waterpark adventure.

Good times are to be had by all while visiting Kalahari, the only indoor WaterPark in Texas. You will certainly be glad that you did 😃🙌🎊🎉!

Astronaut in the Ocean – Kailua Bay Vibes

Ocean life is definitely the life. If I can be anywhere near the ocean, I am definitely at peace.😀 Here is one of the the best ocean views that I have seen: youtube.com/shorts/RlJINE7uGAY

In this video, I was just observing and enjoying all of the natural beauty before my eyes. Thankfully, I was able to soak in all of the views that I saw here at Kailua Bay. What a beautiful day it was to be outside. Down in this area of Downtown Kona, Hawaii, this bay is on one side of the street and shops and restaurants are in the other side. Can it really get any better than this? 😃

To be able to fully appreciate this area, you must go visit for yourselves. Pictures and videos can only give it so much justice, personal experience is just so much better.

I hope that you all enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed recording it! Have a wonderful day!

Hawaiian Balcony Views for the Weekend

Look at this fantastic view for the weekend: youtube.com/shorts/QtzyqMpFlo4

Is there any better way to get a great weekend started than this view? This is what vacations are made for. Relaxing here is just paradise.

This is a view from the balcony of my hotel room at the Hilton Waikoloa Village – Ocean Tower. One of the best views that I have ever seen in my travels. It is just paradise and I am glad that I am capturing the moments.

Once travel frees up again, this should be a top hotel and location on your travel list!

Smooth Criminal Vibes for the Weekend!

If you are Michael Jackson fan, check out this video for great Friday vibes: youtube.com/shorts/IEmbIU0dHV8

This performance took place at the Hilton Rose Hall in Montego Bay, Jamaica. What a gorgeous place this was and what a wonderful job this guy did in impersonating the legendary Michael Jackson.

Not sure what we were expecting to see at this hotel for the first time , but this performance far exceeded our expectations. This was a performance that I will never forget. All that attended enjoyed this stellar performance.

This is a textbook 📕 example of why you should travel, you never know what you may see. and if you are traveling with kids, it makes it even more special. Traveling leaves you so much richer than when you arrive 😎!

Poolside Vibes for a New Week – Kalahari WaterPark

Until the official end of summer (Labor Day) there is still time to enjoy the sights and sounds of pool vibes 😎 like the ones that I have captured here: youtube.com/shorts/511-CTG0_Fk

Whether you are at Kalahari, or in your backyard, there is no better way to beat the heat than relaxing at the pool.😃 As you can see from the video above, on this particular day, the pool was the popular option 😂. I certainly had fun relaxing here and having it indoors did not hurt at all.

I believe that it felt so much more exceptionally well given all that we as a society has endured due to the pandemic 😷. Just felt like a tremendous release – as if we we all were waiting to exhale.

Enjoy the above video. Hopefully these good times will return soon. It was very nice to experience at least for a short time.

Hold On to Summer – WaterPark Ride Vibes 😎🙌

It is hard to believe that summer is quickly coming to an end. Seems like it just started but somehow we have arrived here . If you are a fan of water park rides, take a look at the one captured here: youtube.com/shorts/g1PCT4KiZYY a lot of thrills for sure!

Kalahari was a wonderful place to go to beat the Texas heat. If summer has not ended as of yet for you, I would recommend checking it out. You will not be sorry at all. There is literally something for everyone.

Vacations are always one of those things that you never quite know how much you need it until you are actually experiencing the fun and relaxation that only a vacation can bring. This place was just what the doctor ordered, a heavy dose of both,

Hard to believe that this park and resort opened up in Round Rock, Texas only in November of 2020. It is practically brand new, which is definitely another reason to visit.

Behold 😃 – Belize 🇧🇿 🏝 😎!

One of the best places that I have ever visited is Belize! Behold the beauty of this magnificent location here: youtube.com/shorts/huSi1F6itdE

I had just arrived (on this gorgeous day) at around 8:00 am and as you can tell from the video, it was so beautiful. You can look at the views from the port and it gives you just a taste of what Belize has to offer.

While I was there, I got to take a cruise of the Belize River which was just so magnificent. I will share more on future posts, but suffice it to say, it felt good to be able to check this off my bucket list🙌.

Hope that you enjoy the video and I look forward to posting more in the days and weeks ahead.

Coming in Hot 🥵- Mount Kilauea Volcano 🌋 Vent

Coming in hot on a Thursday 😃🌋! Check out the video that I just posted of the only active volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii. There are volcano vents on the outside of the volcano- just like this one here: youtube.com/shorts/xLKFsRu5OVE

What a sight to see that it was. Just an amazing sight to behold. Before this experience, I had never seen one of these in person but cannot wait to see another one. These vents allow steam and other gases to emit from the base of the volcano. The steam was very hot 🥵 which contrasted nicely with the cold weather that was outside.

If you ever have the opportunity to visit the Volcano State Park in Hawaii, please do so. It is such an incredible place to visit while you are there. You will be so glad that you did!

Keep Calm and Wobble 😃🏝🏖!

Nothing else like dancing in a group. 😃 Couple that with being on vacation at a beach and you have excellent memories. Such is the case with my first and only visit to Montego Bay, Jamaica. Certainly not my last for sure.

The wobble is a very iconic dance that is widely known by almost everyone. This particular video today shows the fun that I experienced doing the wobble after dinner on the beach. Certainly an experience like none other that I have had. This beach was located onsite at the Hilton Rose Hall Hotel in case you may want to visit.

I hope that you enjoy the vibes here and make sure, by all means, to Keep Calm and Wobble! 💃😃🔥🇯🇲

Jamaican Beach Wobble

Smooth Criminal Vibes in Jamaica

If you are a fan of Michael Jackson’s music, feel free to check out this video for a trip down memory lane: youtube.com/shorts/j8qiWdDKTnU

One of my most favorite artist of all time! Although this is a spot-on impersonation, there is truly no one that comes close to the real person. His performances are truly legendary and had the ability to make you forget about everything else that was going on in your life and in the world 🌎.

This performance happened in Montego Bay, Jamaica 🇯🇲 at the the Hilton Rose Hall while I was there on vacation. I could not resist watching this epic performance and being amazed by it. Smooth Criminal is truly one of my favorite songs of his, but honestly, I really love them all 😂.

I hope that you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed seeing it live and in-person!
