Mikes Galley – Impressive !!

August 18, 2014 by Renata Leave a Comment

I LOVE MIKES GALLEY !!! It's my favorite breakfast place in Daytona ...and it keeps getting better !! They used to be closed on Mondays - now they are open 7 days ! They used to be just South of Dunlawton - in a little oceanfront place with mismatched coffee mugs and a sloping floor, and you would happily wait for hours because it was always busy and you could never walk right in and get a seat and sometimes - you would get there and the pecan rolls would be gone...... Not these days - ... Read more »

Portraits on the Beach by Tony Giese

August 15, 2014 by Renata Leave a Comment

We were in Daytona from Aug 2nd - Aug 13th, 2014 I decided that I was going to invest in some professional shots of my condos for my 2015 advertising campaign this trip. Actually I had this on my to-do list for the past few years - it was a matter of finding the right time to get this done, between rentals and updates - I always found an excuse to do it next time. I have been oogling Tony Giese's work and website for a few years now and was thrilled to finally get the chance to meet him!! ... Read more »

Daytona Beach Activities – Fishing Charter

November 18, 2013 by Renata Leave a Comment

The best trips are when family members flit off in their own direction to do something fun. My son-in-law is always on the look out for a fishin hole, and is one of those guys who loves to fish.

Sand Castles

November 3, 2013 by Renata Leave a Comment

Daytona Beach Ocean Walk Shoppes Sand Castle

Sand Castles... I love checking out the new sand castles at Ocean Walk Shoppes. They literally block the road and use a dump truck to drop off cubic mountains of sand for sculptures. I have been lucky enough to see Suzanne Altamare scuplting away. Usually right around the events you'll see a new sculpture, like the Daytona 500, BikeWeek or Spring Break times.. I believe that a great family vacation activity would be to get lessons from Suzanne, she is local and lessons in crafting ... Read more »

NCAA 2012 – Photo Bomb

October 1, 2012 by Renata Leave a Comment

So, I have always learned that you muct be considerate when you are on the beach... Like if you want to take a picture - walking and then stopping in front of someone who is also taking a picture is rude Why is your picture so much more important than my picture? Why do you feel that you can just jump in front of someone and it is OK ?? You are rude, and now you are a photobomber... I hope you are proud of your pictures.... ... Read more »
