Relax at the Doral Resort and Spa

Looking for a place to relax, renew your spirits and have some good old family fun? Well the Doral Golf Resort and Spa might be the place for you. It’s not only a beautiful place that resembles Miami life, but it was the winner of the best resort by the Miami Herald. Little do many know, the land that Doral sits on today was originally purchased with the sole intent of building a world-class country club. Today it is Doral's pride and joy. Oh and bring money. Lots of it. For prices and more info visit their website: http://www.doralresort.com/

Mommies and Kids in Doral

Doral is a growing city. Lots of people are moving in from all over the world. Some families are arriving without relatives to visit and are in need of making friends. I recently stumbled onto a post where a French mother with an 11-month old baby was looking to meet other moms with children around the same age. It seemed a little unsafe until after some research I found a site that it’s designed for just that: meeting other mommies. Those who want to take part in the group just pay a $5 membership fee. The group sets up meeting dates at parks and other recreational places. At first sight I thought it might be dangerous to try to meet strangers through a site, but what the heck, being paranoid will get you no-where.

Blasting and mining in our backyard

Many residents in the Doral area hear and feel the house shaking blasts and wonder where it's coming from. The answer is the West-Miami Dade Limestone Quarries. Little do Doral residents know that they can view the blasting schedule, on this website: http://www.mdlpa.org/MiningSchedules.htm For example, blasting is supposed to occur between 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. and can't occur during Saturday, Sunday or legal holidays.
