Carnival Cruise (Pre-Covid): Dance 💃 🕺🏾 Vibes

If you are in need of fun vibes, look no further than this video, which was taken on a Carnival Cruise back in the good old days prior to the pandemic: youtube.com/shorts/8YMW4STq5ag

Hard to believe that there were times like these, but these times actually existed😃. My sincere hope is that these times return soon. It is always good to reflect on good times especially during not so good times.

This video is just plain fun 🤩! This was part of the sail away celebration that Carnival was having, as we prepared to set sail to the Western Caribbean. Little did we know at the time, how much fun we would have visiting Costa Maya, Belize and Cozumel.

I encourage you, if you have not experienced a cruise or even if you have, to enjoy this type of experience once or again. Looking at this video, puts me mentally back on that ship, enjoying all of the sights and sounds😃

Girl on Fire 🔥- Acrobat Circus Vibes!

I love going to the circus 🤡! Something about being under the big top that makes you feel like a kid again. I recently visited the UniverSoul Circus and what a great time that I had. The trapeze artist and acrobats were unbelievable. Check out this video 😱- I was holding my breath every step of the way: youtube.com/shorts/yguSWmaL3WY

I still get some chills looking at this.😀 It really shows just how talented these circus artists are. Do not think that I could ever do this but I am so thankful that there are folks that can. Makes you wonder the amount of time that it must have taken in order to practice this over and over again.

If you ever get a chance to see the UniverSoul Circus (or any circus for that matter) in person, please do so. It is so much fun for every member of the family. 😃

Carnival Cruise into a new week😎🏖🕺🏾

Have you ever seen a cruise ship? If you have never been on a cruise or it has been a while, take a look at this video of the Port of Cozumel: youtube.com/shorts/_-r2pSrIviQ

As you can see, they are massive 😂! It makes you seriously wonder, how are they able to float on the water? It is an amazing phenomenon. Especially when you take into account the weight of the ship and the weight of hundreds of people that are on the ship.

Carnival Cruises does a phenomenal of making the cruise experience so enjoyable. I was, for along time, a person that did not want to take a cruise. I seriously could not fathom why anyone would want to do it. I could not see how it could be fun in any way.

Boy was I wrong..it was an experience like none other. After the first cruise, I was hooked and I have been cruising ever since🤩! Truly the most fun that you can have on a vacation is taking a cruise. There is something for everyone and you are left with a lifetime of memories.

Labor Day Views from Cabo😎🏝

Can you believe these awesome views? youtube.com/shorts/tuhIhRR-050 They are absolutely amazing 😻! Hard to believe that this much fun was contained all in one place. I had so much fun taking the glass boat ride, along the Sea of Cortez, in addition to spending time touring Cabo San Lucas and surrounding areas.

Cabo San Lucas is an absolute gem of a vacation destination. It was one of the top bucket list places on my list. During this visit, I was able to visit a glass blowing factory, eat lunch in Downtown San Jose del Cabo, partake in tequila tasting (yum) and also visit the city of Los Cabos.

I was able to book this trip all on Trip Advisor. It had all of the above mentioned excursions included. A tour bus comes to get you in the morning and you get back to the hotel in the evening. Pretty much a full day of fun in the sun ☀️!

Kalahari Resort View – Fun Vibes😃

Just thought I would post a picture of the balcony view from my hotel room when I stayed on-site at Kalahari Resorts. What a view: youtube.com/shorts/VOYdMqSj8r8

One of the nicest places that I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. Not only were the views of the grounds superb but the waterpark was second to none. In my mind, the beauty is combining a hotel and a waterpark all in one. You either have one or the other but not both.

Kalahari has been successfully able to combine them both and that is where the magic happens 😂. On this particular day, I had just arrived and as is my customary m.o., I took a look at the view. I saw a magnificent courtyard where people could take a break and enjoy the great outdoors. Did I mention that live music is part of the attraction as well?

Live music is a part of the festivities at night. The bands are cool and play nothing but the hits! I look forward to another trip to Kalahari. It should be as fun next time as it was this time!

Feels like Summer – Fun Times 😃!

Trying to savor the last bit of summer by sliding into the deep one more time, here it goes: youtube.com/shorts/KX4DpNz9GlQ

Visiting Kalahari was a welcomed break from all that is happening in this world. I definitely encourage an escape of any kind during these days in which we live. Not only is it needed, it is most definitely deserved 😃.

On this particular day, I did just that. I must admit, as you can see from the video above, it felt good 😂. I would gladly take the plunge again a couple of more times almost to wash 2020 and 2021 away from my memory! 😂

If you are thinking of trying to savor the last drop of summer, I encourage you to do so, certainly if it can be done safely during these times. Otherwise, I believe that there will be plenty of time to do this – in the days, weeks and months ahead!

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!

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

Such an incredible waterfall- Akaka Falls 😻😎🔥❤️!

Akaka Falls is truly a natural wonder😎! Here is the link: youtube.com/shorts/uylSTMu2x2E

This waterfall is located in Hilo, Hawaii and it is so beautiful 😻! Cannot believe that I got to stand that close to the waterfall. It is truly incredible. No other experience could possibly come close to this great feeling. This is one of those memories that is permanently burned into your brain forever 😂! Certainly memories you can share with your grandchildren.

If waterfalls are your thing, consider the Big Island of Hawaii for your next island adventure. You only live once, and if you do it right, once is enough 😂

Summer Vibes Loading 😻😎🏖🎉

Summer vibes are right around the corner. Just posted a video to get you in the summer mood: youtube.com/shorts/S1MVC9X-HME

This is a video from the Kailua Bay located in Downtown Kona, Hawaii. These excellent vibes provided a much needed refresher from the Hawaiian 🌺 sun. As summer gets closer (officially a little less than one week away), beaches like these will undoubtedly be crowded.

It is certainly a great time to remind everyone about the need to apply sunscreen in the hot weather. So needed on those beach days where you are spending enormous amounts of time out in the sun.

My best paths in life have always led to the beach 🏖 so I look forward to more beach adventures, as the countdown to summer has officially begun.
