The Epic Road Trip

August 13, 2014 by Kath 16 Comments

The mission was simple, if daunting: pack two families into an SUV, drive from Toronto to Florida for a week and then – gulp – drive back again. It may have been a very foolish idea indeed: seven people, one vehicle and twenty-four hours on the road in each direction. What chaos might ensue? In … [Read more...]

Getaway Bags

April 13, 2014 by Jennifer 1 Comment

Our family is hitting the road this week, and getting away gets a little easier with each trip. Over the last couple of years, I've developed a customizable packing list and I make a copy up for each kid to pack his or her supplies. Once they've everything gathered, I'd pack it up into family … [Read more...]

The Holiday Experience in New York City with Kids!

December 27, 2013 by Sonya 3 Comments

A visit to New York City during the holiday season was on my "bucket list" for years. I'm a city girl after all and I've lost count of how many times I've been for vacation or work but never during this magical time of year. We brought the kids for the first time. Our older one is on the verge of … [Read more...]

Global Resort Homes – Your Central Florida Home Base

November 13, 2013 by Jen 2 Comments

I have the good fortune of doing a lot of travelling. Wherever I end up I usually spend my vacation time in a hotel or resort. Most of the time these experiences are amazing.

All The Beauty That Lies Beneath

Go out far into the ocean until you get to a reef. Put on your snorkel, mask and fins.  And courage. And get close to some … [Read more...]

Facing My Fear at 50, Again

October 22, 2013 by Nancy 14 Comments

All week I watched the parasail float over the water above me as I ran or walked the beach. I could do that, I say to myself, from the safety of the peaceful beach. But do I want to? "Nance, you should do that. I know you are afraid." I am, as many of you know, very afraid of heights. I have … [Read more...]
