Consejos para la ciudad
Reserva antes de ir
Check The Weather!!
Florida’s weather can change drastically from day-to-day. Sunny, rainy, cloudy, super hot to windy! Because of excessive humidity, it can also change throughout the same day or from one minute to the next! It's very unpredictable, it may be beautiful and sunny one minute and then a bad thunderstorm could pop up on you! So check the weather or install the Weather Channel app on your phone with notifications and be prepared if you are venturing out, especially during our “8 months of summer”!!

Finding Local Restaurants
Use a search app on your phone to find restaurants that are different from your everyday “chain restaurants” so you can try something new! Be sure to read several reviews and use common sense when selecting a new place. Some people just have one bad experience and feel the need to boycott everyone from ever eating at that place out of spite or principle. It doesn’t necessarily mean the restaurant is awful, but if say 7 out of 10 reviews are negative then it’s probably a good assumption. You can always message me to see if it’s somewhere I have been and can give you a thumbs up or down.
