Mom's Visit




Drew Barrymore's childhood home




Mar-A-Lago

My mom loves coming to Florida to visit us. She and Aunt Stacie are tied for the most visits. On this trip, my mom really wanted to see Mar-A-Lago, President Trump's private club on Palm Beach. I had never seen it and was interested as well. However, it turned into a bit of a story...

So we drove to Mar-A-Lago which is off of the main road in Palm Beach. The driveway was open so I turned down the path and immediately regretted it. There were about five workers dressed very nicely about 100 feet in front of me. I paused so my mom could get a picture of the house, but she took forever as her phone kept shutting off. All the while, I feel I'm being stared at by the five people in front of me. Once she finished I had to drive past the five people as they asked if they could help me. I then told them we were being nosy and wanted to see Trump's house. They asked us to leave. It was a bit embarrassing. Trace and Kianna were with us and they were super embarrassed. My mom of course didn't think much of it...

In addition to seeing Mar-A-Lago, we also decided to take a Palm Beach Boat Tour to see the homes of the rich and famous. We brought our own sandwiches and smoothies so we could have a picnic on the boat. The tour left from Singer Island and then went past Drew Barrymore's childhood home, as well as, many other wealthy peoples homes. It was a fun tour.
