Hotel Review: Marriott's The Current Hotel, Autograph Collection in Tampa, Florida
Переглядів 2,8 тис.4 роки тому
I stayed at Marriott's new boutique hotel, "The Current Hotel, Autograph Collection" on Rocky Point island in Tampa, Florida for almost 3 weeks in January 2020. Given all the pros and cons, I give this hotel 5 STARS! The rooms are luxuriously nice, the food is fantastic, and the views are out of this world. I especially loved watching the variety of birds around Tampa Bay.

The WORST AirBnB Nightmare Apartment - Gibraltar 2019 - Scammed out of $2000!!!

Just a note, an episode of Star Trek, The Next Generation, has the Enterprise picking up some farmers, who STILL EAT ANIMAL FLESH!

    • @LibbyRome
      @LibbyRome Рік тому

      The cruise line offers transportation options to the airport. Or when you disembark in Southampton, there is always a line of cabs. You can take a cab to the Southampton train station, which will get you to the airport. Or you can take a cab directly to the airport, which would cost between 150 and 250 pounds.

    Hey Libby! So glad I found your channel. I have been having some blood pressure issues, and started medication to control it. THEN I started doing research on the medication and decided I would rather take my chances on a whole food plant based diet than slowly kill myself with the medication I was prescribed. I'm down 9.25 lbs and it will be one month (3 days from now). Blood pressure has been down substantially, but I'm thinking I still have about 30 lbs I'd like to say good bye to for good! I just turned 59, but I STILL think the weight will come off...nobody can get fat eating plants. 😁 The fiber just fills you up too fast. God speed on your health journey!

Now I’m back to 160 & recent blood work showed I’m pre-diabetic. Dr says cumin carbs. But wfpb as you know we eat carbs. My plan is cut out all the sweets, junk, & process foods I went back to after covid. And incorporating 3x a week cardio. I retest in April. Any suggestions or additional advice for me? I would appreciate.😃
