As the northern part of the country slides into the colder weather you may be thinking, “I’m not ready for this yet.” I admit, I think that too almost daily – in spite of the mild weather Colorado has been experiencing so far this fall. So what can you do to give those flip flops in the bottom of your closet special attention? Plan a winter trip to Destin, Florida.
Located on the sunny gulf coast of Florida, just south of Mobile, AL – and a short 4-hour drive from New Orleans International Airport, Destin is one of Florida’s best kept secrets. When you want to get away from it all wtihout the hassles of 
Orlando, Miami, and Ft. Lauderdale – consider coming to the panhandle for your next beach vacation.
With an abundance of activities and attractions, you are sure to keep the kids busy. If you’re vacationing with a loved one – spend your day taking long walks on the sugar-sand beaches and playing in the surf. The possibilities are endless:
The Track Family Recreation Center offers Go-Carts, Bumper Boats, Mini-Golf and a Bungee Tower.
Take a lesson in fun from Ride-On Surf School
Paddle an Ocean Kayak through the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico
Big Kahuna Water Park is sure to be a hit with the kids
Spend a day on the water battling some of the biggest fish in the ocean. Local charters can get you up close and personal with Marlin, Sailfish, Amberjack, Red Snapper and more!
Without a doubt there is a ton to see and do while vacationing in Destin. Dining and lodging options vary. You can get some great Destin Vacation Packages from the vacation rental agencies or stay in one of the beachfront hotels. I always like to grab a condo myself, saves dollars on eating out constantly and if you’re lucky you get a washer and dryer to combat all of the beach sand!
Welcome back!

FitFlop Women’s Fiorella Thong Sandal FitFlop
. Created in the UK, over a two-year collaboration between former Bliss spa-
entrepreneur Marcia Kilgore, Biomechanist Dr. David Cook and a team of untiring
footwear engineers, FitFlops were initially
designed to help modern women squeeze a little more exercise into their
increasingly hectic schedules.”I thought, how amazing if I could invent something
that would help fight the onset of cellulite while I’m walking to the office,”
says Kilgore. “I work. I have kids. I have a husband. And the likelihood of me
seeing the inside of a gym in the next ten years is slim to none. That said, I’d
obviously prefer to go with slim.” Kilgore found Dr. Cook at The Centre for Human
Performance at London’s LSBU, where he envisioned injecting the patent-pending
‘microwobbleboard’ technology into the midsole of the function-forward flip flop
The Fiorella is a cute sandal and is as comfortable as other FitFlops. They fit
well. The color is not white white – it is definitely Antique which is an off
white. The only negative is the price. I don’t understand why they are so much
more than other FitFlops. They aren’t that
different that they should cost $20 to $30 more.
