Don’t Miss the Blue Angels at the Florida Keys Airshow 4/10 & 4/11 Mar 31

The U.S. Navy’s renowned Blue Angels Flight Demonstration Squadron is to showcase its members’ dynamic flying skills Saturday and Sunday, April 10-11, during the Southernmost Air Spectacular presented by Naval Air Station Key West.

Admission is free to the air show, scheduled to take place at NAS Key West’s Boca Chica Field, located at mile marker 8 on U.S. Highway 1 just north of Key West. Gates are to open at 9 a.m. both days, with action scheduled to continue until 5 p.m.

The legendary Blue Angels are internationally recognized for their superb formation flying. The squadron, whose winter home was NAS Key West in the 1960s, is to perform maneuvers in F/A-18 Hornet fighter aircraft beginning at 2:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Other planned air show highlights include an F-18/EF Superhornet demonstration by the Strike Fighter Squadron VFA-106 “Gladiators,” an F-5N Tiger Diamond flyby by the Fighter Composite Squadron VFC-111 “Sundowners” and performances by the 101st Airborne “Screaming Eagles” Parachute Demonstration Team and U.S. Air Force Viper West F-16 Demonstration Team.

The show also is to feature daring civilian aerobatic exhibitions including an aerial “pirate” act, displays of military and vintage aircraft, a kids’ zone and concessions.

The Blue Angels’ history dates back to the end of World War II, when Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Chester W. Nimitz ordered the formation of a flight demonstration team to showcase naval aviation. The Blue Angels performed their first flight demonstration in June 1946, and an estimated 15 million spectators view their shows each year.

Shoppers’ Paradise on the Beach – Destin, Florida Jan 05

Shoppers Paradise on the Beach

Not only can you find some of the world’s finest beaches and fishing in Destin, but you can also find some amazing post-holiday deals at the Silver Sands Factory Stores located directly across from the beach. With over 100 designer stores ranging from apparel to electronics and more, you’ll be sure to find just what you’re looking for without breaking the bank. I was able to find a brand new Coach handbag for my wife for under $100, regular price $250. Some of the other really hot stores include: BCBG,  Lacoste, Nike Factory Store (a must), Rockport, Swarovski, Tommy Hilfiger, and Saks Fifth Avenue.

Silver Sands Outlet Mall

Silver Sands Outlet Mall - 10562 Emerald Coast Parkway, Destin, FL 32550

Dooney & Bourke as well as their sport collections (Duck, Patchwork, Stripe and Sailboat) are currently 50% off original outlet prices.

The prices in San Destin rival are what you might expect to pay online or at one of the world’s largest outlet malls like Sawgrass Mills in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Be sure to wear comfortable footwear and come prepared to do some walking. The outdoor mall is laid out in sections with about 10-20 stores on each block. Parking is usually readily available and spaces are large enough to accommodate large vehicles.

If you get hungry you can always stop at one of the restaurants and grab a bite to eat. For something fast, I would recommend Panera Bread for their soups and sandwiches served on fresh specialty bread, or if you prefer Italian, Carabba’s Italian Grill is a really good choice for franchise dining. For desert, San Gelato Cafe is well-known for serving fresh Italian ice cream made daily.

True to their motto, Silver Sands is the shoppers’ paradise.

For more information about stores and sales visit: Silver Sands Outlet

Cheers!

Save Big on Your Next Florida Vacation Jan 03

Its time to plan your next Florida Beach Vacation now before all the best beach rentals are all booked.

Smart travelers are already aware that booking a beach front rental will save them hundreds of dollars versus staying in a hotel, we have also found a great place to save on your other high cost item – Food. Part of a fantastic vacation is taking the whole family out to great dinners at fabulous local eating establishments.

Well just like your accommodations, there is no need to pay full price for food!

If you are staying anywhere on the Gulf Coast of Florida or in the Disney/Orlando Area you should definitely make a stop at Restaurant.com for discounts on meals for the whole family.

How can a company offer $25 gift certificates to restaurants and only charge you $10 (or less if a coupon is involved) and actually be a deal that is for real?

We purchased our gift certificate for $25 for a mere $4 because they happened to be running a great sale on the gift certificates. When we typed in our zip code, there are a over 70 restaurants in our area along the Tampa Beaches.

I purchased the gift certificate for one particular restaurant and a copy of the gift certificate was emailed to me as well as available immediately for printing. You have the ability at this time to make a reservation through the website. This is not required, but I thought it might make the process go smoother and alert the restaurant that I was using one of these certificates Within a minute of placing the reservation I received an automated call from Restaurant.com to thank me for placing my reservation and that they were confirming it.

We went to dinner that night and had two entrees and two glasses of wine. The total bill was over the amount needed for us to use the certificate so meeting a $35 minimum purchase at the restaurant was not a problem at all! When we received the bill, we tucked the certificate inside and when the waiter came out with our bill revised with the $25 removed from the total tab. Now we could let the excitement really begin because it was the real deal! Our evening, including our tip and the $4 purchase price) was about the cost of one entrée at the restaurant – you reaLLY CAN’T BEAT THIS DEAL.

Now why in the world would a restaurant be open to doing this? Well, if it is a small mom and pop shop, this is a great way to get new faces in the door and let them know about your restaurant. For example, the place we went to was so great that I now want to go there for my birthday. Mission accomplished by the restaurant to get me to be a reoccurring customer. This is also a great way for a new restaurant to get their name out there. The places that were offered were great and they probably know that they are great. They know that they are so great that they can give you food (practically free) and know that you will probably come back and pay top dollar for the same entrée.
