Since the gyms have been closed Duncan and I have been having to get creative with our workouts. We do some at-home workouts, but being home all day can be a drag, especially since Florida has been having the BEST weather lately. We decided to start running. We've been working our way up to 1 mile of straight running everyday and are continuing to push ourselves every time. It helps when you have a beautiful view so we've explored Orlando and have come up with a list of the best trails in Orlando and will continue to add to this list.

After 26 years of living in Florida, I think I just found my favorite city. I love everything about St. Petersburg. The art, nightlife, beach life, and local shops are just a few of the reasons we keep going back. I have been to St Pete before but I guess I never really explored it much.

We recently took a couple trips over here and we like it so much we even talked about moving to that side of town. It's such a quaint yet lively city. Keep reading if you want to know about the best things to do in St Petersburg!

The Orlando bar scene is evergrowing with speakeasies, holiday themed bars, and craft breweries. Going to a bar has become so much more than just drinking. It's about socializing in a setting you enjoy. Whether you prefer a chill night or more lively one, this city has it all. There's truly something to fit everyone's needs. Here's a list of the best bars in Orlando.

We discovered something cool recently and have been so excited to share it with you guys! Resort Pass is a website that allows you to book a day pass to a hotel or resort. You basically get all of their amenities for a starting price of $25! It's the perfect daycation.

If you find yourself looking for something to do on a Saturday morning look no further. This historic downtown is the perfect place to spend your weekend off. The city of Winter Garden has a little bit of everything to make for a perfect day.  

   I've always struggled with my feelings towards zoos. It always felt like these animals were trapped for our entertainment but I realized this is not always the case. I recently educated myself more on what they do for the conservation of animals. It's not easy for some of these animals in the wild. They are losing their habitats and being killed by humans for a number of reasons. So many of these beautiful creatures we share this earth with go extinct because of us. Zoos help to conserve these animals and take them off of endangered species lists.
   The Brevard Zoo supports international conservation programs. Some of their initiatives include scrub-jay translocation efforts, Sea Turtle Healing Centers, and Restore our Shore programs. They work towards making environmentally friendly changes that protect wildlife. It is apparent that everyone working here really cares for these animals. Every where we went there was a staff member eager to tell us about the animals that live there. It's one of the best experiences I've had at a zoo and taught me a lot about all of the different species that call Brevard Zoo their home.
