Headed Home

We are headed home tomorrow, and I hope that Hurricane Irene stays off the East Coast for everyone! The storms are brewing in Boca, and they do make for gorgeous ocean views. This shot was taken from our window.

Best of the Week on BB&B

It's another beautiful day in Boca Raton ~ and we spent most of it in the ocean ~ the water is so clear, I feel like I am in the Caribbean waters. I hope you are enjoying this Saturday afternoon. We are off to Trattoria Romana for some great Italian food tonight. What are your plans?

Home Tour in Boca

Our condo in Boca is modern with an oriental twist. The white sectional is the focal point of the living room and it's a great place to take in the gorgeous oceanfront view.

The tropical home design is complete with animal decor ~ monkeys, birds and elephants!

I love the white washed furniture in the bedroom. It definitely has that beachy feeling to it. I painted the colorful tulips in watercolor to give the room a pop of color.

Florida Everglades Airboat Rides

We were extremely adventurous today and took an airboat ride through the Florida Everglades. Of course we needed to get fueled up for the day with an amazing oceanfront breakfast at an awesome diner by the pier.

While we wait for the boat tour, we get acquainted with the history of the Everglades up close and personal!

And yes, we saw alligators just laying out in the sun... blue herons as well as leather ferns, cattails, sawgrass, and the Primrose willow trees {which contain salicin, a key ingredient in Bayer aspirin}.
