Camels, Belly Dances, And Cactus Tacos Wrap Up Season One With Bridget

kjb — 2009-06-12T08:48:05-05:00

This week, Bridget's back in Morocco and hopping a ride on a camel named Scooby-Doo, in addition to revisiting Mexico to see what’s shaking south of Cancun in Tulum. As always, Bridget does her best to give us the scoop on the local scene while making sure to throw in a little entertainment for us at home as well.

This week’s first stop is the modern coastal city of Agadir, Morocco. After checking into the posh Sofitel Agadir Royal Bay Resort to change into something a little more comfortable, she hits the beach. At this point, she’s seen so many beaches that she got a little bored and headed back to the hotel to get a henna tattoo while catching some rays. Thankfully she resisted getting the Playboy bunny, and chose a traditional design.

Bridget Takes Morocco, And Of Course Cancun

kjb — 2009-06-05T09:21:18-05:00

For the last couple weeks we’ve been in the same countries with Bridget, but finally we’re off to a couple new locations. Enough of our complaining, as exotic Essaouira, Morocco and Cancun are on this week’s agenda. How can we loose with impromptu dance parties in the street, horseback riding, and parasailing off the coast of Mexico?

Bridget’s first stop this week is to Morocco, which she describes as a place straight out of an Indiana Jones movie. Joined by gal-pal Pilar Lastra, the two take in the sights and sales of the medina, along with an actor whom they refer to as “Moroccan George Clooney.” Within this market they try on plenty of shirts and shoes, and they surprisingly do a great job haggling to get a good price.

Munching On Key Limes And Coconuts in Key West and Costa Rica

And we’re back in Costa Rica and Florida again this week, thanks to the show's new format of spreading destinations across episodes. It’s a little disappointing since we were already there with Bridget last week, but at least there were new things to see in Key West, like a spooky ghost tour and some relaxing spa time outside Arenal National Park in Costa Rica.

The show starts off with a little river rapids adventure with pal Amber Campisi. The current didn’t look very rough to us at home, but the frequent and abrupt camera angle changes made it feel like we were right there with them. The overzealous tour guide was the highlight of the journey, as he threatened to tip the raft and spun them around silly, although he wasn’t as bold as some of the locals who jumped into the river from a rope bridge. Thankfully everyone stayed pretty dry, and the raft stayed upright the whole time.

Bridget Returns With The Sights Of South Beach And Playa Jaco

kjb — 2009-05-22T09:01:59-05:00

We’ve been a little depressed without Bridget Marquardt, and thankfully she’s back in action this week. However, the powers that be have decided to split up her weekly adventures into two half-hour spots. That means less time in each location, but at least we get to see our favorite bikini-ed travel lady in two places. This week she’s in Miami eating alligator tail and in Playa Jaco, Costa Rica for some shoreline horseback riding.

With a couple local beauty queens by her side, Bridget checks out South Beach and then quickly yachts it over to The Fontainebleau where George Hamilton tries his best to work his game on her. Since flirting with old dudes is her forte, she chats him up, but quickly heads elsewhere for some local adventure in the Everglades aboard an airboat. There’s plenty of alligators to freak out Bridget’s pals, but our host does her best to stay cool.

CA: Bridget Reunites with The Bunnies for SoCal Beach Tour

kjb — 2009-05-01T09:51:42-05:00

This week Bridget Marquardt met up with some of her former roommates from the mansion as she hits the hotspots of Southern California. Although we love California, it just doesn’t have the same appeal as some of her more exotic locations. Nonetheless, she kept us more than entertained with her dog fashion show, trapeze lessons, sand sculptures, and a Baywatch-style run along the beach.

HI: Bridget Says Aloha To Helicopters, Hang Gliders, And Hawaii

kjb — 2009-04-24T09:46:43-05:00

Ever since we got to talk with Bridget Marquardt last week, we’ve been looking forward to this week’s episode from Hawaii. She teamed up with Miss Hawaii 2009, Aureana Tseu, who brought some local flare to Bridget’s adventures through the Aloha State. There was plenty of hula dancing, hiking to waterfalls, and even swimming with the sharks—there was a cage, don’t worry.

Jaunted's Seven Minutes in Heaven with Bridget Marquardt

Ok, so technically it wasn't the Seven Minutes in Heaven game that you started playing with all your friends after watching "Teen Wolf," but Jaunted did get about seven minutes yesterday to talk with Bridget Marquardt about her Travel Channel show, "Bridget's Sexiest Beaches."

We've been doing weekly recaps of the show here every Friday (check out our take on Bridget's trip to Spain here) and we know that you have been dying to hear what Bridget had to say about filming her time on the sand.

Here's what Bridget told us about how the show came about, her traveling experience, her love of the beach and what happened behind the scenes. And if you're hoping to find Bridget on your next trip to Santa Monica, listen carefully around the 5:40 mark.
