Naples, Florida - Day 3

  Naples, Florida -  Day 3:   For breakfast, we went to Blueberry's Restaurant. I had the Blueberry and Strawberry Crepes and the fresh fruit. I love crepes, and these didn't disappoint. Everything was very good and the service was excellent. The rest of the day was spent at my grandmother's house until it was time for the wedding. The setting was at the beach, and my cousin looked so beautiful. I have never been to a beach wedding before, and I was really impressed by how nice everything was. After pictures, there was a sit down dinner which was really nice.

Naples, Florida - Day 2

The food was wonderful and the service was great. After breakfast, we went on a guided tour of the Holocaust Museum. The tour was very informative but tastefully done, considering the subject matter. There was a rehearsal dinner that evening at the Naples Beach Hotel, which was wonderful. The food was incredible and the service was excellent.   What I Wore: (Daytime)   - Blouse from Nordstrom   - Jeans from mandco.com   - Loafers from gapfactory.com   - Bag from Fendi.com (my mother's)   - Earrings from berricle.com   - Hat from louisviaroma.com   - Sunglasses from missselfridge.com   - Perfume is from marcjacobs.com   - Nail Polish is Essie - Blue la la What I Wore: (Rehe...

Naples, Florida - Day 1

Image
    Naples, Florida - Day 1:     My cousin is getting married this Saturday in a beach wedding, so my parents and I left Thursday morning to drive to Naples, Florida. My grandmother lives in Naples, so we went to lunch at Osteria Tulia. I had the Classico Pizza, which has tomatoes, mozzarella, basil and olive oil on it. For dessert, I had the Caramelized Pineapple Pistachio Cake which was out of this world. After visiting with my grandmother and other family members for a while, we went to check into our hotel. Normally, we would stay with my grandmother but there are already several family members staying with her. We are staying at the Inn on Fifth, which is absolutely phenomenal. The rooms are gorgeous and I can't wait to visit the pool. I can't say how amazing this inn is, but it is very pricy. For dinner, my family and I ate at Chops City Grill, which is known for their steaks. I ordered the Petite Filet Steak with the baked potat...

Day 2 - Disney Land

Image
             What I did - Disney Land   For breakfast, we ate at Carnation Café, which is located in Disneyland on Main Street. I ordered the Mickey-shaped waffle with sausage ($12.00) and the Seasonal Fruit ($3.00). Mine was excellent, of course you can't go wrong with a Mickey Mouse waffle. My mother, father and grandmother had the Eggs Benedict ($11.00). I had a small taste of it and it was very good. I would recommend this place to anyone. We then explored the park and rode some rides. I even got my grandmother, who is 56, to get on the Pirates of the Caribbean water ride. She complained about getting wet, but she seemed to enjoy herself. At 11:30 am, my grandmother, mother and myself went to the spa for facials while my dad went golfing. We had the Fire & Ice massage ($165.00) which was wonderful. After the spa, we ate lunch at Café Orleans in New Orleans Square. For starters, we split the Pommes Frites ($7.00) which is ...

Day 5 - Vegas

Image
What I Did: This morning we ate at Della's Kitchen. I had the Churro Waffle and my mom had the Spiced Pumpkin Pancakes and we shared a fruit bowl. Both of these were delicious and you will not be disappointed if you eat here. After breakfast, we went to the Linq Promenade located by the Strip. We had tickets to ride the High Roller, which I believe is the world's largest Ferris wheel. We did some shopping while waiting on our ride time of 12:00. The view was spectacular and it only costs twenty dollars to ride it. They do have night time rides and I can only imagine how beautiful that must be, but since we have a flight later in the day we had to do it early. After the ride, I grabbed a couple of cupcakes from the cupcake ATM. They have many flavors suitable for anyone, but I had the Sprinkle cupcake. My mom had the Red Velvet cupcake and both were delicious. Unfortunately, we had to leave much sooner than I was ready for. We went to the hotel, grabbed our bags and he...

Day 3 - Vegas

Day 3 - Las Vegas:   Last night, my parents and I attended the Blue Man Group Show which was pretty fun. My parents didn't enjoy it as much as I did. I have seen one other performance of the Blue Man Group in Orlando, and I rate the Orlando one a lot better. All of the kids in the audience enjoyed it though. We sat in the second row and a poncho is arrived if you sit up front. After the show, we ate at the Burger Bar Mandalay Place. I had the Angus Burger on the whole wheat bun with skinny fries. We ordered the mac n cheese croquettes and for dessert I had the Nutella Milkshake. I can't rave enough about how good this place was. All of our food was delicious and I was really impressed with the milkshakes. I though it was really neat how they had a a lot of different fries to choose from. You can't go wrong with anything you order, and I would highlight recommend the Nutella Milkshake, if you like Nutella.   The next morning my mom and I went swimmin...

Day 2 - Las Vegas

Day 2 - Las Vegas: Last night - After we arrived in Las Vegas and deboarded the plane, we went directly to our hotel before going to eat.  We ate down in the hotel's steak house restaurant and I had a ribeye. It was very good and the service was impeccable. After dinner, I went upstairs to our room and unpacked my clothes. My mom took me to the pool for a while and I had an amazing time.  Today - We ate breakfast at the Veranda in our hotel and I had Tiramisu Croissant French Toast and grape fruit segments.  Everything was amazing, although the service was a little slow. After breakfast, my mom and I went to the spa for manicures and pedicures. The spa was top notch. After that, we went to the Shark Reef which is at Mandalay Bay Resort. It was only about a five minute walk, and the price was pretty good ($20), but it wasn't that big. It was very educational and if you take kids to Vegas; they will probably enjoy it. After that, we ate at Della'...
