Last weekend was a holiday, with the Family Day holiday here in Ontario (and President’s Day in the States). We decided to run away from home and spend three days in the state of Vermont, in the States, which borders our old province, Quebec. Our destination was the city of Burlington, which is the largest city in the state, with just over 42,000 inhabitants (and metropolitan area of approximately 211,000 inhabitants), wow, you can see that Vermont is not very populous… 🙂 A lot of people go to Vermont for the good monhanhas for skiing and winter sports, but we were even to relax and enjoy what we could know,…

In one of the few days we stayed in Miami, we decided to walk through Coral Gables, which is a small town of about 12,000 inhabitants, southwest of Miami. It’s all kind of stuck together to tell you the truth. We learned of the beautiful streets covered with green by these centuries-old trees and near there, in Coconut Grove, was also the Villa Vizcaya museum, which was another attraction we wanted to know. Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, Pennsylvania The Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, as it is called today, was the property of about 50 acres of a wealthy businessman in the region. The mansion and gardens were built in Italian…

After the fun but exhausting days of the parks in Orlando, we drove to Miami, about 4 hours away. Our greatest intention was to even give a reduced pace, rest a little (if this is possible having a child of 1 year and a half on the lap) and know the beaches and a few sights that we find more interesting, before flying home. We stayed in a hotel near the marina in North Miami, for reasons of values, since the beachfront resort hotels in South Beach are quite expensive (resort fee, parking etc. in addition to the daily, of course), which was not a big problem, since we were…

Our next stop was universal parks. Although the parking and access are the same, universal’s park is divided into Universal Studios and Universal Island of Adventures. You pass through an area full of bars and shops that resemble downtown Disney and then head to the entrance of one or another park. On this day, we decided to know the part of Universal Studios, which proved to be the emptier park of all that we went on this trip. Apparently a lot of people prefer the other side of the park. Several attractions and you have the option to pay an extra to go in the fast lines. At this time…

Get ready for a flurry of photos. I'll let you know! Magic Kingdom, well, is a classic. I always imagined myself visiting and seeing the castle up close and everything. For those who do not know, the park is really full of magic. And why not talk about the crowd that works there and is all over the corner of the park. Starting with the parking lot, as I mentioned, they help car by car. Then, every 5 minutes, pass the tram to take you to the access to the monorail or ferry boat. All in the greatest enthusiasm. The 3 of us took a quick pass at the end…
