They were offering a package called Road Trip. The room rate was decent and the package included a $25 gas gift card and 20% off everything at the resort. Which we used for beach chairs and breakfast.
The first order of business once we got up there was to eat. But due to only being 45 minutes away it was really to early to eat. So we took a little detour and headed over to the Jupiter Lighthouse. We toured the museum while we waited for our guided tour up to the lighthouse. The funniest part of this experience was our guide. He was probably 16 or 17 with a fuzz of a mustache. As he was describing some of the plants that we passed by he described them as erotic with out a blink of the eye instead of exotic. Alot of the people in our group caught this. So for the rest of the tour we made everything erotic.

Next up was lunch. This was very exciting to us due to the yumminess we were about to experience. We went to a place call Food Shack. The food is so amazing. They have these wonderful ways of preparing fish. It really is something to try if you are ever in the area. I had dolphin that was encrusted with angel hair pasta and parmesan cheese on a bed of lettuce. SO GOOD!
After lunch we checked into the hotel. We had a great ocean view room. We all put on our bathing suits and sunscreen and headed down to the beach/pool. This is what I was really excited about. To lay outside with my magazine and just hang out. It was perfect! The weather was so nice and the company was great. After hanging outside we all went up for naps and then got ready for dinner. We went to another great place called Guanabanas. The atmosphere is fun. It is all outside and the landscaping is amazing.
It was such a nice break from the everyday. It really was a great mini vaca with great food and friends!
