Tuesday Travel Tips and Tricks Episode 5

 


    Welcome back fellow Adventurers to another fun filled episode of Tuesday Travel Tips and Tricks. Today we will covering why you should consider bringing a spare pair of shoes when going to the beach. I know it sounds strange to bring a spare pair of shoes to the beach, but it does come in handy.

    My mom and I learned this trick one summer during a trip to Ship Island. On this trip we only brought one pair each of shoes. When we were heading back to the ferry to go home, we did stop to rinse off at the shower areas. We rinsed off our shoes, that were covered in sand, very thoroughly. However, sand doesn't always come off so easily. By the time we made it back to the car, on the mainland, both of us had blisters from left over sand in our shoes.

    The next trip to Ship Island we took a spare pair of shoes each along with gallon zip lock bags. When it came time to leave the island we rinsed everything just like last time; however, this time we put the shoes we rinsed off into the zip lock bags and put on our clean spare pair of shoes. This trip, we ended with no blisters on our feet from the sand. We have used this trick ever since.

    So if you are planning a beach trip, I highly recommend bringing a spare pair of shoes with you so you can change into them afterwards. You will be saving your feet from those uncomfortable blisters. You'll also be a little more comfortable when heading home. I hope this helps you on your next beach trip!

    Until next time!

Woody’s Roadside Bar and Grill

Image
One of the restaurants where my family likes to eat is Woody’s Roadside Bar and Grill located on Highway 605/ Lorraine Rd. I’ve been to this restaurant multiple times and not once have I ever had bad service. All the employees are super nice and upbeat, and the food is amazing. My mom normally gets the chicken strips and fries while I get the pulled pork sandwich, fries, and sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries, in my opinion, are absolutely addictive. 😋 I normally can’t finish all of mine, but that is ok because I take it home for leftovers to put in my lunch box for the next time I work at my part-time job.     I highly recommend eating here if you have the chance. The atmosphere is fun, the staff and food is amazing. It is a little loud in the restaurant so if you are looking for some place a little quieter, then this may not be for you. For the guys that want to watch the game while they eat, there are plenty of TVs. Some are in the dining area and more ...

Samurai Japanese Cuisine, Sushi Grill, and Bar

Image
            Hi everyone, today we are taking a trip to Samurai Japanese Restaurant. It is a small restaurant located on Sangani Blvd, across the stree from the Wal-Mart Supercenter in D'Iberville, MS. The atmosphere of the restaurant, though small, is very quiet and relaxing with relaxing music playing quietly in the background.     Once seated your server brings out hot towel to clean your hands, which is a great touch. Especially in the winter when even just 2 minutes outside and your fingers will be ice cold. Then once you're ready the server will take your order. My mom and I only waited about 5 minutes and the server brought out our soups, salad, and spring rolls. They were served hot and delicious  😋. Then about 5 minutes later our food arrived. Nice, hot, and delicious 😋. I had the chicken and steak hibachi meal and my mom had the chicken hibachi.      This restaurant does not have the show where the hibachi chef ...
