Day Trip: DC
Have you ever taken a flight out in the morning, ate, and returned that night?? A few months ago, a friend of mine who works for an airline told me that on his off days, he catches flights to other cities for brunch. I was shocked! Why hadn’t I thought of that?! So, being theContinue reading “Day Trip: DC”
West Indian Day Parade
Homie called me up a few weeks ago and said, “Hey, have you ever been to Brooklyn for Carnival?” I was like, “Nope.” Of course, I checked that it was ok with my family, but I said yes! I’ve been to Caribbean Carnivals in Atlanta, Miami, Charlotte, Columbia (SC), and Raleigh. I hope to goContinue reading “West Indian Day Parade”

So, this review is part Philly and part Roots Picnic. Both deserve a deeper dive, but I don’t have it in me. And, beContinue reading “Philly: Roots Picnic”
South Beach
Itinerary I’ve been to Miami several times, but this is my first time taking the kids. Therefore, I had to do a ton of research for kid friendly things to do. We went down for spring break. Many of my options were inspired by Mom Trotter. We didn’t get to do everything we wanted, soContinue reading “South Beach”

Afro Nation Puerto Rico
Afro Nation is a traveling Afro beats music festival that takes place annually. The festivals stops in Las Vegas, Portugal, and Puerto Rico. I obviously chose Puerto Rico because it’s so close and I liked the line up better. Perhaps one day, I’ll venture to Portugal. I just hate flights over 4 hours. Any tipsContinue reading “Afro Nation Puerto Rico”
