There are a few iconic buildings in Toronto but when you walk through the doors of the 110 year old King Edward Hotel, you can just feel the opulence and imagine all the incredible stories of grandeur (and gasp!...scandal) that have occurred throughout the years. Kind Eddy (as affectionately known … [Read more...]
Girlfriend Getaway at Horseshoe Resort – A delicious experience.
Last weekend, I was treated to the Girlfriends Getaway package at Horseshoe Resort in Ontario's Muskoka region. On my drive up there, my mind wandered to all of the exciting events we had planned: a yoga class, massage, facial, and time to relax in the pool and hot tub. But you know what I was … [Read more...]
The First Time
You know when you go to a place for the first time, and you are full of expectations of what it will be like, and it turns out to be nothing like you expected, and yet everything you expected all at once?That was Las Vegas for me.I flew in Friday night, and flew home Sunday evening, and in the … [Read more...]
Jet Lag
I'm kinda surprised how easily I get jet lag when I travel. I need a day (or RedBull) to adjust when I get to my destination and if I'm going to somewhere beautiful like Europe, I really don't want to waste a day catching up on my zzz's. There's been some talk about having proper LED lighting to … [Read more...]
girlfriend getaway
I had the good fortune of going to Horseshoe Resort this past weekend to be a part of their Girlfriend Getaway package. I flew into the lobby from a full day of getting better acquainted with my van, to be told that the clairvoyant was going to be starting promptly in 5 minutes. I love that … [Read more...]
Planes, Pains and Automobiles

Every year I get to go to one of the most beautiful places on the planet, never mind the country. Things there … [Read more...]
Horseshoe Resort Girlfriend Weekend-join me?
Fun and relaxing events are always difficult to justify in a busy life. There is never a good time to take a break. We women often give to ourselves last. If you have a family, going away means you wipe yourself out trying to make your departure and absence seamless. If you work, turning off … [Read more...]
Tween/Teens and Travel: How to Maintain Your Sanity & Have Fun
I'll reveal my secret to tween/teen travel a little later but, in the meantime, let me say that, I hate groundhogs. Well, at least the one that said we were having an early spring. Seriously, just yesterday I was looking out my window and there was a blizzard out there! This March Break was colder … [Read more...]
Bristol Mountain, NY…Ski New York!
There are many wonderful things about having kids who play competitive hockey (but I'll leave that for another post). One of the un-wonderful things is the inability to plan for any March Break vacations, since playoffs happen during that time, and players (and their families) have to be prepared to … [Read more...]
Times they are a-changin’
My life has been a whirlwind over the last few months and I feel that I have finally come up for air. Last week I spent 5 days on a beach with an old friend with the goal of perspective-getting and it worked. Before arriving at The Crane Resort in Barbados I had been able to make little sense of … [Read more...]
