Disclosure: Eddy and I worked in conjunction with the Republic of Ireland Tourism Board. St. Patrick’s Day weekend is upon us and all across Ireland, the United States and the world; everyone will be getting their green on! I know on March 17th we always celebrate with green pancakes and enjoy some Irish delicacies. For those of you who follow me on Dancing Hotdogs social media outlets (if you do not, why not? WE ARE AWESOME! ) you will know that Eddy and I had an international holiday for Valentine’s Day weekend where we headed to Republic of Ireland for an amazing experience. Check out this video recap of some of our trip highlights and some travel tips. To see all our Republic of Ireland videos click here for the Dancing Hotdogs youtube page.

And I am so excited to announce that I am a Sesame Place ambassador for the 2012 season! I will be posting on all sorts of great information on promotions, special events and ticket giveaways! I am especially excited to see the new show “Let’s Play Together!” at Abby’s Paradise Theater and check out the new app and a healthier menu! Check out this preview video from the Sesame Place team. It’s a three hour ride for us Connecticutians but Sesame Place is just the perfect place for preschool age children and along with the great general park activities they always have fun events like Max & Ruby’s Musical Playdate (May 5th & 6th), Super Grover’s Super Hero Party (May 20th), Fireworks (May 27th & July 4th), I could go on and on.

Visit Florida Blogger Event Recap #visitflorida

As I mentioned before in my New York Times Travel Show recap post social media has broken into the travel industry and I recently attended a Visit Florida blogger and digital media reception at the gorgeous Voce in New York City where I got a chance to learn about some great family friendly destinations in Florida. Honestly with Rock (3 years old) and X (1 year old) when I think of family travel and Florida I just think Orlando but the event opened my eyes to some refreshingly new locations like Fort Myers, Naples, Florida Keys, St. Petersburg, Sarasota and the Space Coast to name a few that I just had to share. (I am in no way associated with discounts or booking just wanted to pass on info. FOR FULL DETAILS CHECK OUT THE SITES.) Westgate River Ranch Resort a 1,700-acre ranch located in Central Florida gives “city slicker” families a chance to be part of the action. Check out www.WGRiverRanch.com for details. Charlotte Harbor and Punta Gorda allows you to pedal … [Read more...]
