🔴⚾️ Let’s play ball!! 🔴⚾️

Nestled on the banks of the Ohio River, it's more than just a stadium; it's the heart of Cincinnati and the Cincinnati Reds

As you step into this ballpark, you feeling like you are part of the #RedsLegacy. You can almost hear the echoes of past victories, the roar of the crowd, and feel the passion and dedication of every player who has donned the Reds jersey.

This is a place that is absolutely worth visiting!! It is everything that makes you love baseball! ⚾️

📍Visiting the iconic 'You Can Do It' sign in Jefferson, Indiana. A simple phrase that carries so much power and motivation! 💪

From here, you get a breathtaking view of Louisville, Kentucky across the Ohio River.

Indiana and Kentucky, two states with their own unique charm, connected by the beautiful Ohio River.

A reminder that no matter where we come from or what we're going through, with a little courage and determination, #YouCanDoIt!

If you haven't done this yet, I highly recommend it. A perfect blend of inspiration and natural beauty. 🍃👌

🎵 A night to remember at the Grand Ole Opry 🎸

There's nothing quite like the thrill of live country music in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee - especially at a venue as iconic as the Opry.

Last nights lineup was a 10/10, with both rising stars and legendary artists taking the stage. Each performance was a testament to the enduring spirit of country music - from soulful ballads to foot-tapping anthems that had the whole audience singing along. 🎤

But the Opry isn't just about the music. It's about the stories, the community, and most importantly about tradition.

I felt privileged to be a part of the Opry History for a moment. ❤️

If you ever find yourself in Nashville, don't miss this experience. It's pure magic! ✨

One of the things I love to do when on a road trip is get up early and take a walk in the local area.

Today I found these beautiful Machine Gun Falls near where we were staying in Tullahoma, Tennessee!

I love the AllTrails app for helping you find local trails wherever you are in the world.

What are your favorite ways to start the day when you are on the road?

🥃 We had a blast exploring the impressive Jack Daniel’s Distillery! 🌎

Most impressive was to learn that every drop of Jack Daniel’s comes from Lynchburg. There are over 2 million barrels of JD maturing at any one time … with 250 bottles coming from each barrel. That’s a lot of whiskey!! 🤪

The tour follows the whole process from the tranquil spring where Jack Daniel’s all begins to the iconic barrel houses, through the meticulous process of mellowing, distilling, and aging that makes Jack Daniel's so unique.

If you're a fan of this legendary Tennessee whiskey or just curious about its legacy, I highly recommend the tour. It's not just about whiskey; it's about tradition and community, interwoven with a rich history.

📚 Visited the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum in Jackson today and was deeply moved by the powerful exhibits.

This museum is a testament to the resilience and courage of those who fought for equality and justice.

It's a reminder of a painful past, but also an inspiring call to action for the future.

Each display tells a story of struggle and triumph, making it a must-visit for anyone interested in American history. 🇺🇸

Welcome to Vicksburg, Mississippi - a place where history and modern engineering intertwine in the most spectacular way. The highlight? The iconic Vicksburg Bridge that stands as a testament to human ingenuity.

Built in 1973, this cantilever bridge carries Interstate 20 and U.S. Route 80 across the mighty Mississippi River, connecting Delta, Louisiana and Vicksburg. Not only does it provide one of the few interstate crossings over the river, but it's also a sight to behold with its impressive length of 12,974 feet!

Just a stone's throw away is the Old Vicksburg Bridge, a historic truss bridge that was built from 1928 to 1930. This beautiful structure is among the finest historic bridges on the Mississippi, and its story goes back to 1926 when local businessman Harry Bovay first proposed the idea.

Sadly, you can't walk or bicycle across either bridge, but a drive across the new bridge is a must-do for every visitor. 🇺🇸

Lake Livingston, Houston!! First stop on our road trip was this fabulous little cafe.

One of my favorite things about road-trips is finding local places to eat.

Do you eat local when road-tripping or stick to chain restaurants?

"🇦🇷🌾 Ranch Escape: Experience Authentic Argentine Estancias near Buenos Aires 🤠🍖

It’s Foodie Friday and the end of our deep dive in to Buenos Aires, rated the 8th best city in the world for expats and digital nomads to live - and it’s easy to see why.

For Foodie Friday we are diving into the deep tradition of the estancia (ranch) in Argentina. Visiting an estancia from Buenos Aires makes for an unforgettable day trip or weekend getaway.

These sprawling estates offer a unique glimpse into the country's gaucho (cowboy) culture, complete with horseback riding, folkloric shows, and mouthwatering cuisine.

Discover some great ranch options near Buenos Aires:

🏡 Estancia La Candelaria: This historic ranch boasts a stunning castle, beautiful gardens, and exciting activities like polo lessons.

🐎 Estancia El Ombú de Areco: Located in the charming town of San Antonio de Areco, this working ranch offers a genuine gaucho experience amidst picturesque surroundings.

While visiting an estancia, you can expect to be treated to an incredible culinary adventure with the flavors of traditional Argentine fare

🍽️ Asado: Feast on the iconic Argentine barbecue, featuring succulent cuts of beef, pork, and lamb grilled to perfection over an open flame.

🥖 Choripán: Satisfy your cravings with this classic Argentine sandwich, made with grilled chorizo sausage and crusty bread.

🍲 Locro: Warm up with a hearty bowl of locro, a delicious stew made from corn, beans, and various meats.

🍰 Pastelitos: Indulge in these sweet pastries filled with quince or sweet potato, a popular treat on Argentine holidays.

I hope you have enjoyed our series on Buenos Aires. This city is truly magnificent and very much deserves a spot on your To Be Visited list if it is not their already.

Happy Friday!🇦🇷🌾🐴
