Strike a Yoga Pose on Sanibel Island
@floridayogamama
Move with intention in the Fort Myers area with Brie Mazin, a Palm Beach–based creator also known as Florida Yoga Mama. Brie’s trip took her entire family across Sanibel Island, a laid-back island off the coast of Fort Myers. The Mazin family explored bike trails through J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge and visited Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum & Aquarium. After delicious meals at Doc Ford’s Rum Bar & Grille and Tutti Pazzi Italian Kitchen, there were sweet treats from The Magic Bus Ice Cream and Pinocchio’s Original Italian Ice Cream.
