I love Florida. Every year I threaten to not come back. This time I just might stay! (No, not really. But I like to think that, hehe.) By the time you read this I will be on my way to Florida and I’ll be there for almost a week.

The Premier Orlando Beauty Show is a great trade show. If you can get to it, by all means, go.

It’s huge. In fact, it’s so big that even though this is my sixth time going, I still have not been able to see the entire thing. There is education galore, nail and hair competitions (which are fun to watch), networking events, and lets not forget the shopping.

Then, of course, isFlorida. There’s Disney World, Sea World, Universal Studios, (I’ll save you the disappointment of Wonderworks. It’s a really big arcade and neat from the outside, but not really that cool once you’re in. (Sorry, just my opinion.) And if you get the opportunity, NASA’s Kennedy Space Center is awesome and my favorite attraction there.

But anyway, my schedule is so full this year. I’m teaching a class, attending a networking event, and competing for two days, but I’ve managed to squeeze in a couple days to relax in the sun and I can’t wait. So next week, I’ll be updating you on all the competition stuff that you can handle. And if you are there, come by and say hi.

See you in the Sunshine State
