The Wilder Side of Red Deer – Extreme Pumpkin Carving

Soaking up the sun on a whirlwind of a first day a Soaking up the sun on a whirlwind of a first day at #IPW26 in Fort Lauderdale, FL beginning with a sweet chocolate kiss from Harrisburg, PA. 

Breakfast courtesy a host of local vendors from Fort Lauderdale including @boatyard_restaurantftl @javaandjam @nube_rooftop @s3sunsurfsand @loveleebakeshop. 

A tour of @flamingogardens was a peaceful way to spend an afternoon with butterflies, birds and rescued reptiles.

First night munch and mingle on the beach was a blast. A great start to #IPW26! Thank you #visitlauderdale
Here's a peek at Loews Miami Beach. There's so muc Here's a peek at Loews Miami Beach. There's so much to love about this family friendly hotel. 

The location is optimal. Right on the beach with a huge pool, close enough to walk to lively Ocean Drive but still secluded. Several dining options on site including the iconic Rao's Italian steakhouse and the outdoor terrace at Collins.
