Tips for flying with a 2 year old and her car seat
Traveling with my youngest has been really “easy” until she started walking. That was the time when air traveling became my nightmare. On our trip to California I was finger crossing that she would sleep through the flight, and it was that way, the thing is she was a couple of days away of turning two and she was still flying in “lap” so I was exhausted of having her in my lap for 3 hours. I can’t complain she woke up when we were landing. On our way back, she didn’t slept and we even had bought her a seat. Let’s just say we were that family with a…

Glamping at Flying Flags Resort at Buellton California
Glamping (glamorous camping) has become one of my favorite things to do since our first glamping experience at Antigua Guatemala last summer. We went to Los Angeles for 4 days, and I wanted so badly to squeeze in our itinerary a mini road trip and drive through the amazing views of highway one. It happened to be Cristian’s birthday, so we celebrated his birthday Glamping at Flying Flags Resort at Buellton California (three and half hours away from Los Angeles). Glamping at Flying Flags Resort When we arrived we were welcome with warm chocolate chip cookies ( yes, my 2 year old daughter already felt in heaven). They offer unique accommodations…

Pacific coast highway road trip with kids
For the first time I had this feeling that I didn’t wanted to came back from vacations. At the end of every vacation I always have this need to come back to reality, but not this time, I don’t know if it was because it was a short vacation or because how I felt in love with California. I started planning this trip knowing that my plan could be totally sabotaged by Mia (she is a couple of weeks from the terrific twos ). In effect my plan got sabotaged several times and we made unplanned things that turned out to be amazing. Anyway I wanted to have a plan…

After lunch we went to the local market and then we checked in at Casa Santo Domingo. If you ever go to Antigua, Casa Santo Domingo is a must visit place, it’s s a luxury one of a kind hotel with a museum, spa,…

A weekend in Austin with a toddler
We just came back from Austin and in conclusion we want to move to Austin some day LoL. We felt in love with Austin, we had been there before but we didn’t had the time to explore the city. We started our trip with a stop at an RC track because the main purpose of the trip was a RC race Cris had that weekend. So we stopped and it was soooo hot! There was no place with AC at the track and you know Texas in the summer, not good without a pool if you are outdoors, Mia didn’t see to mind that much, she was playing with her…

Roadtrip from Houston to Denver
Our very first family road trip was from Houston to Denver. It was AMAZING! I had never saw snow before so I was hoping to see at least a little bit of snow, and surprise…. the day we arrived at Denver a storm welcomed us 😊 Day 1 Denver is about 15-16 hours from Houston. We leave Houston around 4pm, and 8 1/2 hours later we arrive to our Hotel in Amarillo almost at midnight. Day 2 We leave the hotel about 8:30 am, we went through the 6th street “historic district” and made a quick stop at Cadillac ranch. Our next stop was Great Sand Dunes, it was not…

Hello there! We just came back from “La Riviera Maya” (Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Tulum) best spring break ever! We went to the wedding of my husband’s former roommate.

They had everything planned for us and wanted all the guests to stay in the same hotel where they were going to have the wedding reception. The thing is… we were planning the trip with our son (11 years old) and he is on that phase of life were he doesn’t like to play like…
