Just the other day, I was at Epcot for the International Flower & Garden Festival. Since I was at Epcot, I had to ride one of my favorite attractions called Test Track. This fun thrill ride always has a long line. We normally suggest skipping the long waits at these more popular rides by using FastPass. Unfortunately, sometimes you do not get a FastPass in time or just want to quickly catch on of your favorite rides. That is when the Single Rider...more

Ask someone to picture their perfect vacation, and you will usually get an answer that involves the words sun, sand and water. The perfect way to relax is to get far away from your daily routine and relax in the warm sun. If this sounds like the vacation for you, what you need is a Caribbean cruise.If you truly want to experience the feeling of living on a boat, or, if you are looking for a cost-efficient way to see the Caribbean, you'll find this aboard a mid-size cruise ship. Mid-size ships offer most of the luxuries of a large ship, but for a more economical price. If you are nervous at the thought of sailing on the ocean, or, if you want to be pampered, a large cruise ship should be your choice.

No cruise would be complete without a few stops along the way, and your cruise ship would be stopping at some of the beautiful islands in the Caribbean ocean. You can shop for local hand-made crafts, explore the islands, or go sailing or snorkeling in the tropical waters. Some islands will host a...more
