a Rafflecopter giveaway

FiDi Families was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of this tour when it began last month. Forget going to Times Square to learn about NYC! The Downtown Experience is downtown’s very own tour packed with a TON of history about how Manhattan began, what it is today and how it got there. This tour is brought to you by The Ride, which if you aren’t familiar with who that is it’s the bus you always see in Times Square that has “stadium” seating looking out the side of the bus (SO FUN!). 

Two lucky winners will be able to win a family 4-pack of tickets to go for themselves to this awesome tour! The winner will be announced on Thursday, May 3rd!

FiDi Families Insiders: For more information about the tour itself you can check out our blog post HERE!

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
