All year long, summer vacation is on my mind. I carefully pick a destination that usually includes a beach and lots of sunshine! Once the destination is set, I then choose all of my activities. Bike riding, golfing, parasailing, historical tours, deep sea fishing, camping, and state park exploration are just a few of my hobbies that I like to include when I’m somewhere else in the world.

But of all these exciting activities, one thing takes precedence over all. FOOD!
I never take a trip without doing extensive research on what foods are indigienous, which restaurants are hot, and will I find any unusual items that need to be crossed off my food bucket list.

By the time this blog is posted, I will be sitting somewhere on a beach, either thinking about the food I ate the night before or planning the meal I will have later on. Either way, it will be great, because I’m on vacation!

Cheers!
