Anna Maria Island. It’s like the Caribbean without the cost.
8pm and the Sandbar Restaurant on Anna Maria Island is in full swing. Of course the full on wedding party helps the mood somewhat, but with nothing but miles of sand, sea and pelicans in front of you, you don’t need much persuading that life could be a lot worse.

Samsonite Lite-Locked Suitcase review
Samsonite knows a thing or two about luggage, after all it has been producing innovative and award winning baggage since 1910.

Glamping at Elephant Lodge. Port Lympne Wild Animal Park
It is a little after 5pm and I am surrounded by giraffes. Rothschild Giraffes no less, the tallest land animals on earth.
