The City of Tamarac will be holding there annual 4th of July celebration. I go to it every year (if it doesn’t rain of course). Here is a little excerpt from their blog:

“Tamarac has been celebrating July 4th with a fireworks display for more than twenty years and the celebration is one of its most anticipated events. In addition to the visit from Uncle Sam and Betsy Ross, the festivities will include: a free concert featuring the band “Now & Then”; games and activities for the entire family; bounce houses for the kids; face painting; giveaways; and, of course, an incredible fireworks display. Refreshments will be available for purchase from the Tamarac Sports Leagues who use the event as a fund-raiser for the teams.” City of Tamarac

Here as well is a video I took back in 2009… Enjoy!

Do you have plans for the Summer?

So with school just about over in 2 weeks. Have you thought about what to do over the summer vacation? Man if you are like me with 3 kids, you will need to keep them occupied.

Last year I had compiled a few things to do, which I will list here. But during the summer, you can follow along to the things I plan on doing with the kids. Summer camps can get expensive when you have more then one child. So we don’t do summer camps. We put the kids in other activties, from the library to pools and parks. There is plenty to do without breaking the bank.

Summer Fun Reading Program
Extreme Go-Karting

During the summer you can follow along… Do you have any places that you take the kids locally? Please do share…..

Have you been to Big Al’s yet?

Have you been to Big Al’s yet? No, then what are you waiting for! It’s only one of the main attractions of Tamarac, Fl. You enter the store and you walk into the selling section-

Fish tanks
Aquarium pieces
Fish foods
Water chemicals

But continue on and you feel you are walking into the sea! When you walk through the dark hallway you are surrounded by 2 huge fish tanks. On one side you have fresh water, and on the other you have salt. Take your prefrences, either way its beautiful. Continue on and there is another huge salt water tank. In this one you will find about 4 huge SHARKS, 2 very long EELS, and plenty schools of fish to choose from.

What is also great about this place— Its known for its FEEDING FRENZY!! This is when they feed the sharks. Every Tuesday night at 7pm, and Saturdays at 3pm. The tank gets surrounded by all adults and kids just to watch. I have a video clip from todays feeding down further. Take a look at some of these photos and let me know what you think.

Now all the fish that are in the smaller tanks are actually for sale. This place is a store not a musuem, but it sure looks like one. I have a big tank myself so this is one of my and my family’s place to go to, we add new fish every so often.

Here is the first salt water tank, it would be on your right. In here there are many rare fishes that you can’t find and these are NOT FOR SALE! But the kids would just love it. I know I do!

Here on your left is the fresh water tank. There are also some nice big fishes you never get to see. Having them in there is great!

These fishes are also NOT FOR SALE!!!

Here you will find the other salt water tank with the sharks and eels. As you can see my husband and daughter are standing in front just watching them swim!

Here is where the tanks are to buy your fishes. There are rows of them. Corals, Live Rock, Vertebres (Lobsters, Shrimps, Crabs) and more!

In the back is a very nice water fountain with fresh water fishes Koi pond. Very nice fishes indeed!

This here is one of the large EELS in the tank. They were very active since feeding time was coming in a few minutes.

Here is one shark heading for some food.

There is also an other EEL nest to him but unable to see it from this angle.

As you can see here, we have 3 of the 4 sharks in the tank. They were very active, swimming as a school waiting for there feeding. When this store first opened up these sharks were very small and now have grown into these big fishes. I wonder how much bigger they can get. Usually only as big as the tank, since there are other sharks and fishes.

This is the 4th shark. I couldn’t get them all in one photo. One was swimming up ahead.

Have you been to Xtreme Go karting?

I had clients here from out of town looking for homes. They have two young boys and wanted to know where they could take them for some fun.

I suggested to them Extreme Go Karts. I had never been there myself but heard great things about it. So they went and were very happy with the place. Now I have family in town and we decided to take them there.

What a fun this place is! Its a indoor Go Karting place, with Miniature Golf, Full Arcade, and a Full Bar. I thought How cool is this!.

So my husband and I decided to give it a try. Boy what a thrill that was. It was a 8 minutes session, and I know what you are thinking, only 8 minutes? Let me tell you 8 minutes is more than enough. I was able to get in 12 laps, my husband got 13. Not bad for my first time!

I took some pictures to give you a look inside. If you live in the area, its worth going to and taking a ride for yourself.
