Date Night at AlSol Tiara Cap Cana

My Favorite Fun & Functional Summer Flip Flops

Friday Night Out at Good Food
May 3, 2014 { 7 comments }Good morning! I’m currently on layover in Atlanta on my way to Florida. My flight left Charlotte this morning at 6 a.m. so that meant a 4 a.m. wake up call. So early but worth it to be at the beach by 9 a.m. I just ate a spinach and feta egg white wrap from [...]
