Drawing in the Galleries at the Orlando Museum of Art
Went to the @orlandomuseumofart and they are doing art in the galleries! You can sketch what inspires you, and they will even provide the sketching materials. It’s included with a membership to the Orlando Museum of Art. Definitely feeling inspired. I haven’t drawn in a while, and I pulled my drawing skills out of long term memory. When it’s been a long time since I have done something sometimes I worry that I have lost what I have learned. Do you ever have that fear? I took

Dîner en Blanc Orlando
The Dîner en Blanc is an annual all white dinner party. Everyone dresses up in all white, including shoes, bags, and accessories. It is so cool to see everyone's outfits and how creative they are! I especially love the headpieces that people make by hand such as fascinators, tiaras and hats. Every year it is held in a location that is kept secret until the day of the event. Last year it was held in Altamonte Springs, and this year the dinner took place in Winter Park. People

Theatre South Playhouse
Had fun at the improv show by @theatresouthplayhouse! It’s awesome to have a live theatre group in town! They are performing Matilda next month at their black box theatre in the Dr. Phillips Marketplace. Matilda was always one of my favorite movies and books and it would be so cool to see a theatre production of it. More info and tickets at theatresouthplayhouse.org!

Penguin Encounter at SeaWorld Orlando: Behind the Scenes Tour
I took a behind the scenes tour at SeaWorld Orlando to meet some penguins! The tour lasts about twenty to thirty minutes, one of the animal experts gives the tour group some info on penguins, and then it opens up for questions and photos. They handled the photo section very well by queuing everyone up and having people go one at a time, that way everyone got a photo and it was very orderly and convivial. The tour group meets near the back of the park and then you get to go to

Carrabba’s on IDrive
Had a beautiful time at @carrabbas! A delicious family restaurant, they use the original recipes created by Carrabba himself. When I think about that evening it’s not just the amazing food, but the quality time spent with my boyfriend on an incredible night out. Something about the vibe there gave it that magic quality with the food, lighting, good service. Right now they’re running a special called Bring Homemade Home, where you can get an entree of equivalent value to your

CEO Gaming Convention in Daytona Beach Florida
From our trip to Daytona Beach for Ceo Gaming Inc. It was held inside the ginormous beautiful Ocean Center convention hall, there were so many people there! We stayed at the Hilton Daytona Beach which you can see behind me, they had the most amazing brunch! You could see the ocean from our room and the Daytona Bandshell where they host live music. Overall I’ve become a fan of Daytona! 📸 @gmsmith8490 🌴🌊🎮 The convention itself featured games such as Street Fighter 5, Tekken

First Time Surfing : Surf Lessons with Vast Oceans Surf and SUP School in Daytona
I had an amazing time in my first ever surf lesson with @ragansurfs! In the morning on the beach in front of the beautiful @shoresresort we went over safety, technique and style, and practiced the surfer pop-up technique to stand up on the board. When we went out into the water he helped me catch a lot of waves, and gave helpful feedback each time on how to improve even more. I even stood all the way up on the board a few times! He was dedicated to making me feel confident on

@chronictacos has amazing fresh and flavorful food! They are a Mexican grill that just opened up a new location on Sand Lake, so it’s super close to the IDrive area!

The Escape Game on IDrive Orlando
Had fun at @theescapegameorlando! Teams of up to eight people join forces for an hour of non stop puzzles, finding clues and solving them! There are a few different scenarios to choose from, such as the Gold Rush or a Mars Mission. Our scenario was the Heist, where we had to find a priceless Monet painting that had been stolen! We were down to the wire but we solved it and won the game! I don’t want to give too many spoilers away, but everyone contributed and it was a lot of

Metro Diner's Amazing Food at their New Florida Location
Had such a good time at @metrodiner yesterday!! I got the Pulled Pork Mac Stack, which is half a pound of pulled pork over homestyle mac and cheese on a cornbread batter waffle with maple butter. Best thing ever. They were also really good at catering to food allergies and my mom found something she could eat in the chicken and fries with some veggies. The salad was fresh and flavorful with plenty of dressing, and the onion rings were crispy without any grease. For drinks we

Boca's Amazing Latin Food in Dr. Phillips
Had a fun time at @bocasgrill! Located in the Dr. Phillips area of Orlando, it brings a taste of South America to the City Beautiful. The deep fried sweet corn with cheese and bacon and cachapa tower were phenomenal, and the towering Nutella churro milkshake was divinely good. They have many different kinds of arepas to choose from, and the Arepa burger, inspired by a cheeseburger, was a favorite dish made with beef, sausage and cheese, topped off with an aioli sauce.

Dunkin's New Chocolate Cherry Cold Brew
Enjoying the new Chocolate Cherry Cold Brew from @dunkin! The rich chocolatey flavor meshes well with the cherry and enhances the deep flavor of the cold brew. The slow cold brewing process takes twelve hours in small batches, and enhances the flavor of the coffee like a fine wine. Even better, right now a medium is only $2 from 2-6pm! Now is the perfect time to add Dunkin’s new Chocolate Cherry Cold Brew to your afternoon lifestyle. Definitely enjoying this coffee happy hour

Experience Japanese & Hawaiian Fusion at Hi-5 Poke and Sushi near IDrive
Had an amazing time at @hi5pokeandsushi! A one of a kind family owned place that combines Japanese and Hawaiian style and cuisine, they are conveniently located in the IDrive district of Orlando. The Korean BBQ wings are one of their most popular dishes and I can see why, with its incredible flavor and spices. They have a really unique take on nachos with tuna, avocado and spicy sauce over wonton chips, which gave it a signature salty flavor. The tonkotsu ramen is a classic t
