Happy Monday!
I hope everyone enjoys the holiday tomorrow. We'll be heading back from Mexico tomorrow so I may need a few days to get back into the swing of things but rest assured lots of fun travel adventures will be coming up soon on Martinis & Bikinis Blog!
The Postcard Inn Beach Resort
Tuesday, January 24, 2017
We traveled to Islamorada in the Florida Keys for my birthday in December and K couldn't have chosen a more beautiful to resort to stay at. Having said that, we spent most of our time relaxing on the beach and enjoying the resort's amenities, onsite restaurants and the tiki bar where we were introduced to frozen Key Lime Daiquiris which were to die for!

I'll let the pictures do the talking from here.
It was such a relaxing vacation celebrating my birthday at a beautiful resort and I loved having an oceanfront room and balcony to enjoy coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening.
Christmas Vacation Scenes
Friday, December 30, 2016
Our house was beginning to look a lot like Christmas. K and I spent weeks decorating and organizing the house for the arrival of my parents and sister to spend our first Florida Christmas together until we got the news that my dad was in the hospital. So to make a long story short, only my sister made it to Florida. I was really upset at first but we made the best of it and decided to take a road trip to K's family on Christmas day.
I wanted to get that out of the way before backing up a few days when my sister arrived in Orlando. We were all disappointed by the news but decided to make the best of it and planned a few extra things to keep us busy.
Last week Friday we visited the Pulse Nightclub memorial site and then went to see the Christmas lights at Wall Street downtown Orlando before heading to the Amway Center to watch the Magic vs Lakers game.
I'm happy to report the Orlando Magic won and my sister had a blast at the game!
On Christmas day, we made our way to Florida's west coast with my sister to spend Christmas with K's extended family.
My MIL absolutely spoiled us with gifts but most of all she spoiled me with 3 gorgeous Pandora charms to add to my small yet growing collection.
We stayed Christmas night at a hotel near the water and woke up to beautiful weather on Monday so we walked around the riverfront before grabbing lunch and making the road trip back home.
On Wednesday night we had tickets to go see Dancing With The Stars live at the new performing arts theater downtown. My cousins drove into town (to take my parents place) and we all went our for some dinner before the show.
We had amazing seats quite close up to the stage and they put on a fantastic show staring Laurie Hernandez the winner of Season 23 (also US women's Olympic gymnast).
It was pretty difficult snapping any quality photos with the fancy lighting and the movement of dancing but I'll share some more of the fun details next week.
To wrap up, it was a far from traditional Christmas this year but it all worked out. My Dad is doing much better and technology helped us stay connected with my mom all weekend long.
Today we are on to another adventure.
Happy Friday and enjoy the weekend!
