Calusa Nature Center’s Haunted Trail

Image
When it is fall in South Florida, it is definitely warm enough to do a stroll outside, and the best place to get those Halloween vibes in a natural setting is at the Calusa Nature Center’s Haunted Trail in Fort Myers. During the day, the nature trails offers great visuals with animals, but at night, those animals are not quite as visible, and though the actors know not to touch you, did anybody tell the snakes? You can’t help but wonder if you might happen upon a gator as you are stumbling through the darkness at the Nature Center, and you recall those panther crossing signs that you saw only a couple miles or so away as you drove in… Cuando es otoño en el sur de Florida, definitivamente hace suficiente calor como para dar un paseo afuera, y el mejor lugar para obtener esas vibraciones de Halloween en un entorno natural es en el sendero embrujado del Centro de Naturaleza de Calusa en Fort Myers. Durante el día, los senderos naturales ofrecen excelentes imágenes con animales, pero por ...

Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens

Image
‘ Tis the season for chilling screams and extra thrills at Busch Garden’s Howl-O-Scream in Tampa. This year, they’ve kicked it up a notch with not only a steam punk theme with Rockin’ favorite metal and industrial bands blaring at various places throughout the park, but they combined this with extreme performances where people dangle from the ceiling while dancers don ripped fishnets. Top this with Martian invasions, a twisted take on Alice in Wonderland, and Big Foot lurking in the woods to make for an exquisitely gruesome experience worthy of seeing.

Discover Cedar Point

Image
If you are an adrenaline junkie like me, then hands-down, my favorite place to go for roller coasters is at Cedar point in Sandusky, Ohio. While some people might think of other places beyond Ohio for vacation destinations, when it comes to roller coasters and haunted houses, you cannot beat Cedar Point’s selection, as they have not only one of the world’s largest collections of roller coasters that are awesome, but they also have multiple haunted houses this time of year. Fall is my favorite time to go to Cedar point, not only because of the Halloweekends, but also because it’s a little cooler than the hot times in the summer, and the crowds thin out a little more to be able to have less wait times to get on some of those favorite rides. Si eres un adicto a la adrenalina como yo, entonces sin duda, mi lugar favorito para ir a las montañas rusas es en Cedar Point en Sandusky, Ohio. Si bien algunas personas pueden pensar en otros lugares más allá de Ohio para destinos de vacaciones, cua...

Gilchrist Blue Springs

Image
This is one of those places where the water is so clear, it almost looks fake. If you are into water sports, especially snorkeling and diving, then the natural springs in Northern and Central Florida are an untapped adventure awaiting for you. On this particular voyage, we explored Ruth B. Gilchrist State Park in High Springs, Florida. Este es uno de esos lugares donde el agua es tan clara que casi parece falsa. Si te gustan los deportes acuáticos, especialmente el snorkel y el buceo, entonces los manantiales naturales en el norte y centro de Florida son una aventura sin explotar esperándote. En este viaje en particular, exploramos a Ruth B. Parque Estatal Gilchrist en High Springs, Florida. Visiting this pristine water is like stepping back in time. The ambience includes some of Florida’s mossy trees and a bumpy dirt path leading into the park, providing the perfect place to disconnect from the frequencies and reconnect with nature. It’s not the flashiest of the Florida Springs, as i...
