VISIT FLORIDA'S 500 Years of Adventure Sweepstakes

I love florida! Some of my favorite vacation memories are from the sunshine state. When I was around 12 years old, I went to St. Petersburg, Fl with my dad who had a business trip. We stayed in a big pink hotel and sat at the pool side ordering virgin strawberry daiquiris and sinking our feet into the sand. We ate crab and I even tasted alligator, (It tasted like a tougher steak). Anyhow, when I was 18, I got to go back with my dad and it was just as I had remembered. The white beaches were gorgeous, the weather was hot with these crazy warm rainstorms. I had never seen rain liked that, and I loved it. I wanted it to rain like that everywhere. I loved the elegance in a very casual laid back place. Florida reminds me of flip flops at weddings, $30 juicy steaks on paper plates, and diamond earrings at a baseball game. In florida you can have it all, elegance and pampering with down to earth fun. I also have been able to go to Orlando twice and enjoy the theme park fun. What an amazing adventure and everything is right there where you want it. You are never bored, their is excitement, and celebration everywhere. It was truly a dream come true. I walked out of the Orlando airport like a kid in a candy store. I was ready to go, go, and go!
Okay now let's talk about the exciting part, Florida’s 500 Years of Adventure Sweepstakes. This is so awesome.

I went onto Florida’s 500 Years of Adventure Sweepstakes and entered myself for the weekly adventure. It was such a simple process. I went to the the website, entered for the weekly adventure, and then presto! I was entered.Take a look:

After taking a sneek peak at all of the great vacations, I think my top pick would be to go to Captiva Island. It looks like it has a lot of character and bright colors, and gorgeous ocean views not to mention, it seems relaxing. I could use a place to just meditate and breathe in the salty ocean air. Of course, I can tell you for sure that my husbands' dream vacation would be the PGA national resort adventure package so we will keep our eyes out for that one too!
