Slick City Slides: Toboganes de la ciudad resbaladiza

Image
On the constant hunt for alternative workout sites, we stumbled across the ever so fun slick city in Fort Myers, Florida. Sometimes, you just need a place to have some family fun when it’s rainy season. Outside water parks not really being an option during lightning, slick city offers an awesome alternative to water park slides, having an indoor slide park without any water required. En la búsqueda constante de sitios de entrenamiento alternativos, nos topamos con la siempre tan divertida y resbaladiza ciudad en Fort Myers, Florida. A veces, solo necesitas un lugar para divertirte en familia cuando es temporada de lluvias. Los parques acuáticos exteriores no son realmente una opción durante los rayos, la ciudad resbaladiza ofrece una alternativa increíble a los toboganes de los parques acuáticos, teniendo un parque de toboganes cubierto sin necesidad de agua. These are not your typical playground slides, as they are designed to be slid down head first. Not only are you assuming a more ...

Great Wolf Naples

Image
  Gather the Wolf Pack and spend Spring Break at the newest Great Wolf Lodge in Naples, Florida.  Sure, there's bowling, an awesome ropes course, food, and more, but it's really all about the waterpark.  This is one of the only waterpark hotels in Southwest Florida, so you will want to bring your swimsuit. Reúne la manada de lobos y pasa las vacaciones de primavera en el nuevo Great Wolf Lodge en Naples, Florida. Claro, hay bolos, un increíble campo de cuerdas, comida y más, pero realmente se trata del parque acuático. Este es uno de los únicos hoteles de parques acuáticos en el suroeste de Florida, por lo que querrá traer su traje de baño. Shove yourself down the hole, pushing off as hard as you can to ensure the fastest speed possible.  Slip and slide around, twisting and turning in between phases of darkness and unexpected colored lights.  It's like you lose sense of time and place, escaping into this other water world where you don't know when the slide will...

New York from the Water: Nueva York desde el agua

Image
The New York city skyline is famous, known for such gems as the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty.  In true pirate style, we sailed around the city on a boat, taking photos along the way.  This collection of photos in video format shows a bit of what you can see in the Big Apple. El horizonte de la ciudad de Nueva York es famoso, conocido por joyas como el Empire State Building y la Estatua de la Libertad.  Al más puro estilo pirata, navegamos por la ciudad en un barco, haciendo fotos por el camino.  Esta colección de fotos en formato de vídeo muestra un poco de lo que se puede ver en la Gran Manzana. Sailing under the massive bridges, soaking in the sun during the summer, this video serves as a reminder of how pretty the city can be when it's not covered in a white layer of snow in the winter.  When you're thinking of upcoming travel plans, the Concrete Jungle might be just the attraction you are seeking.  Though some people call it the Concr...

The Hollywood Hotel: El hotel Hollywood

Image
Located in the heart of Hollywood, California, The Hollywood Hotel's colorful fountain dazzles as you approach, inviting you into the tastefully decorated landscape to retreat.  With subtle nods to Hollywood's movie legends, there's pillows directing where to lay your head, as well as cool chess piece lights challenging you to carefully plan your moves.  Relax at the pool or roam the area, as the hotel is convenient to shopping and dining. Ubicada en el corazón de Hollywood, California, la colorida fuente del Hollywood Hotel deslumbra a medida que te acercas, invitándote a retirarse al paisaje decorado con buen gusto.  Con sutiles guiños a las leyendas del cine de Hollywood, hay almohadas que indican dónde recostarse tu cabeza, así como luces geniales de piezas de ajedrez que te desafían a planificar cuidadosamente tus movimientos.  Relájese en la piscina o deambule por la zona, ya que el hotel está cerca de tiendas y restaurantes. There's a shop in the lounge in cas...

Calypso Cay Stay

Image
 When you want to get away, and Kissimmee is the destination stay, then look no further than Calypso Cay. Snuggled near the Disney attractions, yet just outside of the hectic traffic bustle, this is like home away from home. Condo style setups offer not only a full kitchen for meal prep, a washer and dryers for extended stays, but I still hear that hot tub calling my name.  Having multiple pools to splash around in, crabs squirting water, and a fun twirly slide is a recipe for a good time. Mix that with the climbing wall and drop, and you have hours of entertainment.  Combine with all the entertainment nearby in the area, and you will not want to leave.  Pro tip is you can get a discounted stay at this resort by attending a timeshare presentation. For the savings and prime location, it may be worth considering. This is a reasonably priced way to enjoy Disney for days. Cuando quieras escaparte, y Kissimmee es la estancia de destino, entonces no busques más allá de Cal...

Holidays in the Sunshine State: Vacaciones en el Estado del Sol: サンシャインステートの休日

Image
Pirates might not be known for partying in the snow too much, more commonly known to be found sailing the high seas or lounging in an island-like setting, but even in the tropical climates of the Sunshine State, we make our own winter wonderlands possible.  You don't have to live in the cold climates to see the snow fly thanks to advances in technology these days.  Intricately hand-carved delights will tantalize your sense with food items so realistic, you almost feel bad wanting to eat it, topped off with so many different types of Christmas decorations, you won't know if a tree with sailboats or seashells are more fitting for pirates. Es posible que los piratas no sean conocidos por divertirse demasiado en la nieve, más comúnmente conocidos por encontrarse navegando en alta mar o descansando en un entorno similar a una isla, pero incluso en los climas tropicales del Estado del Sol, hacemos posible nuestras propias maravillas invernales.  No tienes que vivir en los ...
