It's The Little Things

More from our wonderful trip to West Palm Beach Florida this past month! 

We stayed on the 6th Floor of The Breakers which was part of The Flagler Club. 

This first picture was part of our room.  In the bathroom there was a TV built into the mirror and a Bose Sound System in the ceiling.  Sure the entire place was amazing but it was the little things that made it special, too!  The eye-candy everywhere you looked...the decor!

This was the view from our hotel room window.  It's the ocean and it was marvelous!  Both mornings and evenings were completely breath taking.  I really HOPE locals who are used to seeing these sights don't take the beauty for granted!

The weather was PERFECT!  At least 85 degrees daily.  It rained only once but over night while we were sleeping!  How awesome is that!?

I already want to go back...even if only for the gorgeous weather.

When we first checked in...we were greeted in our room with this wonderful flower.  I don't know the name of it but it was fresh and vibrant the full 5 days we were there.  There were also fresh flowers and floral arrangements throughout the Flagler Club Level and The Breakers Hotel.

For more photos and stories from our trip be sure to swing by my main blog MyBlissfulJourney.com.

Another bit of eye candy throughout The Breakers where the chandeliers, lights, lamps, shades, and other lighting and decor. 

There must be HUNDREDS or even THOUSANDS of them throughout the grounds.  And speaking of hundreds and thousands of something around The Breakers...PALM TREES!!!!  More on those in THIS POST on my other site.

Tapestries were a big thing there, too, and all authentic!

One day we went out to the center court of The Breakers.  Dale and I were the only two out there and there were statues and greenery at every turn.  There were also beautiful leftover decorations from a celebration from the night before...such as these cute little table pieces.

They de-cored green apples and put colorful flowers in the middle.  Aren't they pretty!?

One View on One Day

A view from the balcony.  It was about 76 degrees, sunny, and fair outside...a very nice day!  We went to WonderWorks and I will post separately about that adventure but a few other things we did was drive around Pigeon Forge, spend time in our cabin, a lot of time with Paco, and we went Grocery Shopping at Kroger and found a few good deals.  Oh, yes!  Last night we went to Tom & Earl's Back Alley Grill.  It was a neat place in the middle of the village portion of Gatlinburg.  Since we were so tired from our trip I didn't take photos but we hope to go back and spend some time there so I will be sure to take some snaps when we return to that area.  Another thing that happened this morning we already saw our first black bear.  I wasn't able to get a picture, tho, it was about a foot from our parked car in front of the kitchen which is in the front of the cabin.

Before I get to the WonderWorks part - I wanted to post a few photos of the Magic Museum portion of the building.  It was small but neat.  There were a lot of historical magazines, paper clippings, and memorabilia.  A great place to visit for families and any fan of magic.  

They had displayed a few of the magicians classics such as this one.  I really enjoyed seeing the old time media, photos, and pop culture part of it.

And I couldn't help but think of Harry Potter when I saw their collection of wands.

Next up...a post about the WonderWorks Portion of this building.  One of my favorite parts was the eye candy - starting off with this wild up-side-down building!  This is in Pigeon Forge, TN, and was fun...stay tuned for more...
