Beaches of Florida

Destin Florida is my family’s favorite vacationing spot, its white sand beaches, blue green water, and beautiful ocean front condos always kept us coming back every year. The trip down to Destin was only supposed to take 12 hours, but it took us 15 due to my father’s inconvenient misreading of directions. As we finally crossed the bridge that led into Destin, waves of excitement filled each of us. Our condo was massive it was 16 stories high and only 50 yards away from the water. We all left our…

Disney Cruise to the Bahamas My favorite experience would have to be when I went on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas with my whole family. The first night we flew to Florida, and it was a packed day of traveling so we hit the hay. When we woke up the next morning our adventure began. The next morning, we boarded the ship. Immediately my cousins and I of course went to take a picture with Mickey Mouse. After we checked in and saw our rooms we ran to the pool deck. It was…

It’s a big state! But some of its most striking landscapes aren’t found near its beaches. And yes, we know how gorgeous those are. We at ICI Homes live here too. Go west — and inland — by a couple hours from Florida’s northeast Atlantic Coast beaches. Here, you’ll find the city of Gainesville smack dab in the midst of northern Central Florida and Alachua County. This is Gator country, home to the University of Florida and its namesake athletic teams. Although the Gainesville area shines as…

Destin, Florida In my opinion Florida is a good vacation spot. There may be a few bad things, but it always end up being fun. The first thing I noticed when we arrived in Destin was that all the people we talked to spoke english. I found this a little weird, because Florida is one of the top four states for immigration. The race was pretty well mixed though. There were mainly caucasians, a little less African Americans, and even less hispanics. When we went to Florida there was an even more…

Disney is in the process of revamping its annual pass price structure for annual passes at its theme parks. The cost for an annual pass will be determined by the dates requested. Disney claims this is to prevent overcrowding, but the timing of this new price structure appears to be linked to a specific marketing strategy. With the arrival of new attractions like “Star Wars Land” in 2016 and “Pandora – World of Avatar” in 2017, Disney is looking to maximize profits that are already above…
