Trip Report: Birkenstocks On Board

Does anyone else remember back in the 80's & 90's when Birkenstock shoes first became popular in the American market that they were nicknamed "German Birth Control"?

 

Trip Report: Florida State Road Grids

No news from Pleasure Island today so we're posting this explanation of the state road system in Florida instead. This explains why most state roads in the Orlando area begin with the number 4 when they're north of State Road 50 (Colonial Drive) or the number 5 south of Sate Road 50. There are plenty of exceptions within the grid but most fall within this alignment.

Concert Report: DJ Sasha (The Vanguard)

The legendary DJ Sasha (GB) was playing last night at The Vanguard and sister website Orlando Entertainment News was there. The pics are posted HERE.

 

Club Reports: John Lennon Room @ HRL, The Green Room, Taco Kat, The Corner, Aero Bar, Alfie’s HiFi

Alfie's HiFi has become the darling of Orlando nightlife and it was our final stop last night where we found guest DJ Darren Simonson (USA) and resident DJ Frankmatik (USA). All the pics can be found on sister website Orlando Entertainment News HERE.

DS Update: Ghiradelli Renovations

A couple weeks ago we published a photo of the Ghiradelli temporary location in Disney Springs Town Center. It's located in the former Sprinkles building adjacent the No. 2 Bridge to Pleasure Island. This is their permanent location in Disney Springs Marketplace where their building is under heavy renovations. And that is why they are operating from the temporary spot. We don't think they will be back here until sometime in 2027.

 

Club Report: Glow Party @ Mardi Gras Nightclub (Pride Of America)

Time for one more party on Pride of America, led by DJ Tidal Wave (USA). The pics are on sister website Orlando Entertainment News HERE.

 

Trip Report: The Na Pali Coast

We're sailing on NCL ship Pride of America. The sailing was supposed to end today in Honolulu but the port is closed due to Hurricane Lala's approach. Instead, the ship is spending the day at sea north of the Hawaiian islands. Before heading out to sea, we passed the north coast of Kaua'i, home to these amazing cliffs. 

 

This is known as the Na Pali Coast, home to the world's tallest sea cliffs.

Some cliffs extend 4000' above sea level. We had sun, drizzle, fog during the pass-by.

Aloha! A good time was had by all.
