Hotel Review: Kimpton Hotel Palomar San Diego

March 10, 2018March 12, 2018 ~ Cherise and Shine ~ Leave a comment

Most of you know that I tend to travel at 100 miles an hour, jumping from place to place and cramming as much into my travels as possible. So when the opportunity came up for me and my husband to actually relax for a weekend and enjoy each other’s company for our one-year wedding anniversary … Continue reading Hotel Review: Kimpton Hotel Palomar San Diego

2.5 Days on the Big Island of Hawai’i

February 26, 2018 ~ Cherise and Shine ~ 1 Comment

If you live in California, what do you do with a long weekend? Go to Hawai’i, of course! Jokes, most people in California don’t do this, either. But they should!! We found cheap direct flights to the Big Island from Los Angeles, and we figured, why not? If you keep saying you won’t go somewhere … Continue reading 2.5 Days on the Big Island of Hawai’i

Get your kicks on Route 66 🚗 🚗 🚗 . . Disney is such a blast, but it's also so crowded! We went on Grad Night, which meant that it was unusually packed, so we had to be very creative with the shots we took in order to try to minimize people in the photos. It was very amusing, because every time we moved away from a location we were shooting at we'd find a brand new line of people behind us ready to try as well! . Also, don't pay too much attention to the background. I was trying to edit people out and it was harrddd and I gave up. 😛 .

If this isn't magic, I don't know what is. ✨ . The reasons I love Instagram are standing here on either side of me. When I made my account public about a year ago, I had no idea that I would end up forming the most incredible friendships with people I only chatted with via text. I couldn't have ever guessed I'd become so connected to such beautiful and inspiration gals who would fly ALL THE WAY FROM TORONTO to visit me in Los Angeles (I'm looking at you @jessofmed ❤️) or would sacrifice an entire day out of their short weekend trip to gallivant around Disneyland with us (aka the absolutely lovely @therosietraveler). . Instagram relationships are so funny, because we so intimately know each other's hearts and passions and personalities, yet may not know details other people would learn immediately. As @jessofmed and I were sitting and eating In-N-Out in my LA home, I laughed when she pointed out a personalized embroidered blanket someone gave me and @mikethepsyche for our wedding and asked, "Is that your last name?" Similarly, @therosietraveler giggled at Disneyland when I pulled up her contact info in my phone and she caught that "Instagram" was what I entered into the last name blank since I didn't know hers, either. 😂 . Sure, the friendships we make on Instagram are a little unorthodox. But they are magical beyond any Disney fairy tale. We skip over so much of what society says defines us—our jobs, schools, last names—and get right to the heart of what makes us who we are. I don't know how else you can spend 14 straight hours with people you've just met and not only enjoy every second of it, but love each other even more when you're done. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #radiatorsprings #disneyland #disneybabes #disneycaliforniaadventure #route66 #femaletravelbloggers #sheisnotlost #beautifuldestinations #sidewalkerdaily #disneylover #disneyaddict #shareyourears #darlingescapes #iamtb #teamkaptainkenny #globelletravels #ladiesgoneglobal #girlsthatwander #moodygram #agameoftones #desertvibes

"First, think. Second, dream. Third, believe. And finally, dare." - Walt Disney ✨ . Happy Friday! Still happily reminiscing on the amazing Disney day @jessofmed, @therosietraveler and I had last weekend. Stay tuned for more pics from the happiest place on earth! .

Drinking a matcha latte, pretend like it’s the weekend now 🍵💕 . What are some of your favorite cafes? @thetravelcritic recently asked people for their hometown recs, and I thought it was the cutest idea! Would love to know your favorite spots I must check out should I ever visit you. 😘 . My favorite cafes in Los Angeles are @biacoffee_la, @cafedulcela and the ever popular @philzcoffee chain. And as you can tell from the photo, @holymatchaa gets my vote in San Diego! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #matcha #butfirstcoffee #teatime #ihavethisthingwithpink #sandiego #sandiegogram #cafevibes #cutecafe #thatsdarling #holymatcha #glutenfreefood #milennialpink #greentea #cafelover #caffeineaddict #californiagirl #globetrotters #nomadgirls #ladieslovetravel #teamkaptainkenny #抹茶

I left my heart in San Francisco 🎶 . Has anybody ever seen the 1996 Disney film "Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco?" Whenever I hear this song, my mind actually goes to this movie because one of the dog characters sings it at some point while looking out over a view of the city. Another random tidbit from my childhood—sometimes if I'm hiking or gazing out over an amazing adventurous view, I get the Homeward Bound theme stuck in my head! . Are there any random childhood movies you used to watch that remind you of places when you travel? .

Having an absolute BALL at @colorfactoryco! We may never get a drone, so playing with these ceiling cameras was SO much fun for us. We kept throwing the yellow balls up in the air and truly felt like kids again. 💛 . On another note, I hope that this pop of yellow brightens your day! I've been up since 5am today for work and am feeling groggy, sleepy and in desperate need of a nap. 😴 How is your Monday going so far? . . . . . . . . . . . . . #thecolorfactory #colorfactory #colorfactorysf #livecolorfully #ihavethisthingwithyellow #abmlifeiscolorful #oneloveourlove #travelwithlove #beautifulplaces #igcouple #coupleslovetravel #coupletravels #speechlessplaces #beautifulmatters #discoversf #exploresf #sanfranciscoworld #sanfranciscocity #travelwithus #alwayssf #sanfranciscobucketlist #exploretocreate #thediscoverer #iamtb #californiablogger
