We recently went on a vacation to Florida. I’d never been so I was really excited to get some sunshine on the beach, see the palm trees and dolphins, and just enjoy our time away from home. We traveled all throughout the state, starting in Miami, and ending in Tampa, with a stop in Orlando. Of course we had to see Mickey!

On our arrival in Miami, I was shocked at the amount of immigration issues people in the airport were dealing with. I guess they have real problems with illegal immigration down there. There were signs for abogados de inmigracion all over the place as soon as we left the airport. Everything was written in English and in Spanish. Very different from our English-speaking-only home town!

We spent a few days on the beach in Miami. It was so glamorous and everyone was so beautiful! We ate great Cuban food in Miami; there are Cuban restaurants all over the place. Then we drove our rental car to Disney World for a couple of days. It was so much fun and I felt like a kid all over again. We went on some rides, took really cheesy pictures with some of the characters, and explored Epcot. Our last stop on our journey was Tampa, which was okay but definitely not my favorite place out of the three cities. I wish we had more time to spend in Florida, but every vacation must come to an end, sadly. I would love to go back and explore it some more.
