No, we didn't take our three year old white water rafting, even though that is what comes to mind when we talk about this excursion and everyone’s jaw drops to the floor.
Actually, this is better. This is a Caribbean escape, bamboo rafting under a canopy of trees on a warm river made of silk with no distractions.

Catherine - 0
Celebrating New Year's Eve in Amsterdam is absolutely unreal. There are no rules, no laws, and certainly no common sense. It was one of the most bizarre experiences we've had, and also one of the most extraordinary and unforgettable! New Year's Eve in Amsterdam is a celebration of epic proportions where every single person is a part of the...
We’ve been to Castaway Cay twice now. Once on the Disney Wonder, and once on the Disney Fantasy. During our first visit on the Disney Wonder we did everything wrong. One of those things we did wrong? We booked the worst activity on Castaway Cay: The Glass Bottom Boat Scenic Voyage. Talk about awful.

It makes sense considering it is an island in the middle of the ocean, but I never figured it was covered in pastel painted victorian era style homes, towering mahogany trees lining the sidewalks and boulevards, and friendly pedestrian and bicycle...

Taste Testing Iconic Key Lime Pie in Key West, Florida with Kids | Where the Key Limes are Even Greener than the Grass
Catherine - 0
Let’s just start with the obvious cliché: No stop in Key West, Florida is complete without Key Lime Pie. We knew we had to have to it, we wanted it, and we bought it.
Ah, but where to buy it? Not one bakery seems to have an actual claim to possessing the original, or the first, Key Lime Pie...

3 Easy Rules for Teaching Your Child How to Swim and Not Be Afraid of the Water
Catherine - 2
Growing up in Oregon, it was pretty absurd that we had a house with a pool in the backyard. On average, it rains 221 days a year in Portland which left the month of August for my siblings and I to enjoy our unheated pool when temperatures coasted around 80 F, possibly 90 F if we were really lucky....
Imagine a garden room where the flowers bloom before your very eyes, changing gorgeous hues of colors before opening wide to reveal a luminescent pistil. Imagine sitting inside an oversized flower with petals framing your back and extending above your head, and a soft cushioned leaf for a seat. The Enchanted Garden was our favorite dining restaurant on the...
