Travel is my Kryptonite: South Africa & Zambia Flashback / Mexico City Spotlight Next

-


LexiWorldTravel Is My Kryptonite.
For the first time in many moons, I plan to focus on exploring myself instead of the rest of the world. 
Migrating to NYC inspired me to focus on my career ambitions, sense of style & health & wellness. 
The only thing constant in life is change, after all. 
Change is good.


My Favorite Travel Destinations:

White Elephant Nantucket

 The White Elephant Nantucket  Let's Travel Moore is a regular at the White Elephant ACK... Perfect spot for family travel & couples. The Wauwinet is the only Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts property around the island.  It’s spectacular, but quite a bit far from White Elephant village if you don’t have a car. I suggest you stay at the White Elephant, buy a pair of Nantucket Reds at Murray’s and walk about town!  But don’t skip lunch at Toppers! The Wauwinet Lady can transport you over to this sister property on boat. A great experience!  Back to the White Elephant 🐘  We've stayed in cottages, residences, and - for our last visit - the hotel with a view of the harbor and (very convenient!) easy access to Brant Point...More on that later... The property is full of nautical art… Just like the entire island Books about everything ACK… Don’t miss the Nantucket Atheneum 📚 Check out children’s beach if you’re trying to get a little one all tuckered out before bed. Or calm enough

Four Seasons New Orleans

  The Four Seasons New Orleans  The good times rolled at the Four Seasons New Orleans. We have visited with and without a baby, and both times were magnificent. The Chandelier Bar (showed below) is magnificent! Miss River is a fun spot to eat, with jazz music. Chemin à la Mer is my favorite, with panoramic views of the Mississippi River. I always get the Savage Blonde Oysters. It is the place to go for traditional Louisiana fare with a twist of French techniques.  The fitness center at the Four Seasons is world class, but if you are looking for more of an outdoors family adventure, check out Audubon Park. There is a zoo as well as lovely grounds to stroll and walk off all the jambalaya & such. The Audubon Aquarium is actually closer to the Four Seasons than it is to Audubon Park! This experience is not to be missed. It was my son’s first aquarium experience. It was entertaining for us too.  Another fun spot with a unique bar experience, bar Marilou. a hidden gem for craft cocktails

Kennebunkport, Maine

  A guide for the town where The Bush Family vacations. 🇺🇸Kennebunkport, Maine.  The quaint, yet pedigreed All-American town about 30 miles south of Portland, is full of exquisite lobster fine dining experiences and pristine marinas full of boats.  Where you are staying…  I stayed at the White Barn Inn, an Auberge property. The only Amex #FHR in the area. Complimentary breakfast (mostly coffee) is my favorite way to start the day… Where to relax… Walking on the beach is a close second favorite way to begin my mornings. There are three main Kennebunk Beach areas: Mother’s Beach, Middle Beach, and Gooch’s Beach. Kennebunkport or Kennebunk (they are one and the same) is a destination that will surprise local New Englanders and urban city dwellers alike.  Stripers waterside restaurant at The Breakwater Inn is a great spot for lunch by the water and a lobster roll. 🦞 Take in the fresh air! Looking for a sweet souvenir? Look no further than Daily Society for shopping! Yes, you can buy som
