Scrub Island Resort, Spa and Marina is part of the Autograph Hotel Collection and is located on a small, posh private island in the British Virgin Islands. A vacation at Scrub Island is full of panoramic views of bright turquoise water and easy access to many of the British Virgin Islands’ surrounding islands, and is located only a 10-minute ferry ride from the Tortola Airport, making it a great home base, or first base for your trip to the BVI. Scrub Island is exclusively accessible to hotel and marina guests only but unlike the Maldives or Bora Bora, you probably aren’t going to want to stay on this small island your entire stay in the Virgin Islands. Once you’ve gotten your fill of #ResortLife, book a yacht charter (We used Dream Yacht Charters) for the remaining days of your stay so that you can explore some of my favorite spots in the BVI: like the Baths on Virgin Gorda, Willy T’s, Peter Island, and Soggy Dollar on Jost Van Dyke (A MUST).

But few names have lasted in our history books as predominantly as Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony. Harriet Tubman & the Sewards: A Friendship Made Along the Underground Railroad in Auburn 4: Uncover History at these Underground Railroad Sites in Syracuse 5: Retracing the Footsteps of Frederick Douglass and the Underground Railroad in Rochester If you’d like to learn even more about Frederick Douglass, I highly encourage you to check out Frederick Douglass’s Rochester, a year-long project by Open Mic Rochester and CITY newspaper. They honor the likes of Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony all throughout town.

Just east of Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix make up the US Virgin Islands, where my fiance Kenny actually did his bachelor party. From chic all-inclusives that are great for groups (and adults only) like Excellence Playa Mujeres which I LOVE, to amazing villas you can rent in Cabo, Mexico is a dream for any group vacation, any time of year. With chic day clubs, picture perfect turquoise water and world-class surf break, this is arguably the best vacation destination in Bali. Start your day with beachside yoga, feast on a traditional Turkish breakfast with local artisan cheeses and then spend the rest of the day lounging on white sand beaches, surrounded by striking cliffs!

Everything You Need to Know About Staying at Little Palm Island in the Florida Keys Did you know that one of the world’s best private island resorts is right here in the USA? Waking up in one of Little Palm Island‘s thirty thatched-roof bungalows, surrounded by palms and beautiful beaches, endless watersports, chic pool cabanas, and five-star dining at every meal, I swear I felt a million miles away, despite only being a 20 minute boat ride away from the nearest Little Torch Key in Florida. Those who drive are greeted at the Shore Station in Little Torch Key with Gumby Slumbers — the island’s signature coconut-soaked rum cocktail, invented by a former bartender and named for the delirious way it makes you feel — with just 10 minutes aboard the Woodson or Truman motor yacht separating you from lush Little Palm Island, where an alternate reality awaits. Little Palm Island is a two and a half hour drive from Miami to Little Torch Key, or a one hour drive from Key West (where we flew into), and from Little Torch Key, you take a 20 minute boat ride to the island.

Even if you plan to spend the majority of your time on the South Island, it still might make the most sense to fly through Auckland and book a separate flight from there to Christchurch or Queenstown. If you’re planning a long trip you can rent a Campervan in Auckland and drive it all the way to the South Island via ferry. The Central Otago valley is an easy day tour from Queenstown with Alpine Luxury Tours, Waiheke is a 30-40 minute ferry ride from Auckland and Marlborough is a bit further out there on the northern tip of the Southern Island (but well worth the hassle). Waiheke is doable in a day trip, but with at least two days, you’ll have more time to take in the beaches as well as the vineyards.

The U.S. is home to some of the most scenic desert destinations in the world, from the extraordinary sandstone formations in Arches National Park, the Dr. Suess-like trees in Joshua Tree and the vastness of the Grand Canyon. Get caffeinated for your long days of adventure at Joshua Tree Coffee Company, and from there, hit the hiking or biking trails in Joshua Tree National Park, or do the Scenic Drive via the Pinto Basin. While putting Joshua Tree on your bucket list is a no brainer, you’ll have some tough decisions when it comes to where to stay… the villas & unique accomodations to rent here are on a whole new level. Explore the charming old town area with its boutiques, art galleries and healthy cafes or wind down in a wellness resort like the Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort and Spa.

Jon Page came up with the idea based on his love of craft drinks and video games. Because there is such a strong focus on the drinks and games, the food menu is pretty simple. Now it’s time to talk about the heart of it all – the games! With the great food, drinks, staff, and overall experience, it’s a must for any local’s date night, happy hour, or late night with friends.

But while maple weekend in New York is cancelled in person, you can still stock up on syrup and enjoy breakfast at home with virtual programs. It’s that 2% that we use to make into that delicious syrup that tops your pancakes on Sunday morning. After the syrup has reached the proper temperature, it’s time to filter out any sediment. Visitors can check out what’s going on in the sugar shack and sample freshly boiled syrup.

That’s why I’ve been so excited to learn about wineries in New York using solar energy. Let’s dive a little deeper into one of the wineries in New York using solar energy. Now, their solar energy system produces 2/3 of the energy the company needs to operate. Wineries are not the only ones in New York using solar energy – breweries are getting greener too!
