Hang gliding is my passion, and in 2006, I helped the U.S. Women's Hang Gliding Team win silver in the World Championships. An author, ultimate adventure lover, beach bunny and sand snob, I've visited almost every beach in Florida and can't wait to explore more. Join me as I flip-flop across the Sunshine State, sharing the softest sand, sweetest shores and a boatload of adventure.

Hit the Highway
August 14, 2010
For me, it’s a way to escape. A glorious way.
A road-trip can feel like a dip in the ocean on a sweltering day: refreshing, renewing, even soul-soothing. For a new perspective, consider a jaunt to the beach or try a new adventure – even if it’s just for the weekend. It might be just the medicine you need to put a smile back on your face!
Not sure what to do? Check out my little movie of Sunshine State adventures for inspiration and ideas.

Hi Jeanette, Thanks for reading my blog! I am happy to write a list and include links, but there's no way it will fit here, and I'm really sick right now. How about I write a new blog that includes all the info? I promise to have it up in the next couple of days. Lauren

Could you please post the list of what all of those activities were and links? I recognized some but not others and am interested in doing them.

Great video! Okay, I've made my list: hang gliding, balloon rides and sky diving!
