Everyone's Irish on March 17

Only 2 more weeks and it’s time for the biggest Irish celebration of the year, St. Patrick’s Day! I put together a list of events and things to do on or shortly before St. Patricks Day. BEFORE St. Patrick’s Day: It’s a Green Thing – Alive After Five Street Party on First Street in Sanford, [...]

Day 149 – Route 46 Entertainment Complex in Sanford

Route 46 in Sanford FL

Well, I have driven by this place numerous times, trying to find out what it is. As it turns out Route 46 is a new entertainment complex with restaurants, bars and late nite. They currently have 3 bars/restaurants open, 2 of them just opened recently: The Saloon at Route 46: Bar and Lounge, classy and [...]

Day 148 – Alive After Five and the Wet Spot Karaoke

Alive After Five Party Gras in Sanford

We got a bit later than expected to the Party Gras in Sanford. Nevertheless, it turned out to be a fun event, even though I missed the little parade… The weather was fabulous so we were able to sit outside most of the night. After meeting up with friends at the Willow Tree German restaurant [...]

Day 147 – Corona Cigar Company at Colonial Towne Park in Lake Mary

Corona Cigar Company at Colonial Towne Park in Lake Mary

The Corona Cigar Company at Colonial Towne Park in Lake Mary is always a fun place to hang out, even if you’re not a cigar lover. The inside features handmade furniture from Nicaragua and Latin American accent pieces and decor. In fact, you might almost feel like sitting in an authentic cigar factory. Of course, [...]

Day 135 – Fiddlers Green in Winter Park

135_3photo

Tonight we celebrated a friend’s birthday at Fiddler’s Green in Winter Park. I had been at Fiddler’s Green before but only during the day (for a sports event) so I was curious to finally also get to know this popular Irish pub at night time. I must say, at nighttime the authentic Irish pub atmosphere [...]

Day 123 – Slingapours at Wall Street Plaza Orlando

Slingapour's Orlando

After starting a fun night at the Monkey Bar across the street, Slingapour’s, which is also located at the Wall Street Plaza in Downtown Orlando, makes a great club to end the night. The music is a good mix of pretty much everything mainstream and the club doesn’t seem to “have an attitude”. So it [...]

Day 122 – Monkey Bar at Wall Street Plaza Orlando Downtown

Monkey Bar - Upstairs Inside Bar

Tonight we were part of yet another birthday surprise party, and even though it was the 3rd or 4th in a row it was a great party. The location chosen was the Monkey Bar in Downtown Orlando. The Monkey Bar is located on Wall Street Plaza (off Orange between Central and Washington Street). I really [...]

Day 88 – Independent Bar Orlando

Independent Bar Orlando

Took this picture at our night out on Saturday (so, technically it was already Sunday morning) inside the Independent Bar in Orlando. As usual we had a great time and enjoyed the music, lots of 80s and new wave, just the right mix to dance and have fun.The inside reminds me a lot of the [...]

Day 73 – Stardust Lounge in Orlando Downtown by Lake Eola

Stardust Lounge in Downtown Orlando

The Stardust Lounge in downtown Orlando or, to be more precisely, right by Lake Eola on Central Boulevard, is a great place to spend a night out. When we went to this stylish “underground” bar and lounge on Saturday we actually ended up spending the entire evening there. The word choice of “underground” is because [...]

Day 51 – Wine Room in Winter Park

Wine Room in Winter Park

One of the most creative and unique bars I have come across lately is definitely the Wine Room on Park Avenue in Winter Park, FL. The Wine Room is a combination of bar and wine shop. The concept evolves around the experience of tasting the wine that can be purchased in the store/bar. So as [...]

Day 33 – Park Place at Heathrow – The other side of H E Thomas Parkway in Lake Mary

Park Place at Heathrow

Here’s a view at Park Place at Heathrow in Lake Mary, FL, “the other side of H.E. Thomas Boulevard” facing the Colonial Town Park side. Many of you will know this side because of Fishbones, my favorite seafood restaurant in the area. Unfortunately they raised their prices but they are still excellent and worth it, [...]

Day 29 – A Night Out at Colonial Town Park in Lake Mary FL

Dexter's in Lake Mary

Thursday night we met with friends for drinks at Colonial Town Park in Lake Mary. For anyone living in the West Sanford and Heathrow area Colonial Town Park is the most conveniently located nightlife and entertainment spot where you can meet up for drinks (be it coffee or a martini), have a great dinner (any [...]

Day 24 – Universal City Walk

View of Universal City Walk by Night

Right after our adventure at Universal Horror Nights we walked through Universal City Walk. I took this picture before we walked over the bridge that connects the park with this fun night life spot of Orlando. Universal City Walk has a lot to offer but keep in mind that it tends to be crowded, especially [...]

Day 23 – Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios in Orlando

Ghost trying to scare Holly

Friday night brought me to Universal Horror Night in Orlando. What a scary night – No really, it was scary! At least for me since I am not a Horror movie fan or anything like that. I was holding on to Jose most of the time and squeezing his hand until it hurt. The theme [...]
