Fundy Trail Parkway and Scenic Caves

The Scenic Caves are must visit, while in the Saint John and St. Martins area. Being able to go into the caves and admiring its depth and the amazing power of how the water has changed the landscape is a beautiful and a humbling experience.

Visiting the City of Saint John, New Brunswick

Going from a stay at a small town like Saint Andrews to the city of Saint John is a different experience, and a wonderful way to explore the Fundy coastline. We loved our stay at Hilton Saint John located by the wharf. We enjoyed the excitement of the city during the day and night.

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Monster Musical

Disney’s Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Mickey's Monster Musical is on DVD. Children will enjoy the spooktacular full-length adventures in the episodes, and think about what their favourite costumes are. There are two exciting episodes about searching for pirate treasure with Captain Mickey, and delightful fun down on the farm. The DVD includes nearly 2-hours of adventure plus a cute Exclusive Trick-Or-Treat Mini Tote. I love that the episodes teach children about the importance of being safe especially when they go Trick-Or-Treat.

R3VOLVED Made with 100% Recycled Items

Plastic pollution kills nearly half a million marine mammals every year, and this is a concern we need to unite to stop from happening. I avoid buying plastic bottled water because it is still water that is not healthy for us, and the water bottles fill many landfills. I am glad companies like R3VOLVED is recycling plastic bottles to create planet-friendly products useful for school, home, and office.

Explore: Saint Andrews By the Sea

We loved our stay at Saint Andrews, New Brunswick, which is a beautiful small coastal community. It is a wonderful place to relax and feel the slow pace of life that we are loosing in our fast paced city life. We enjoyed the atmosphere, as we strolled along the streets of Saint Andrews and checked out the stores, restaurants, and attractions.

Watch the amazing Macaque Monkeys on Disneynature Monkey Kingdom

Monkeys are amazing creatures, and very much close to humans in many ways. The similarities we share with monkeys are beautifully and artistically presented in the Disneynature Monkey Kingdom. It has taken three years and talents of many experts to bring this movie to us. This movie based in the beautiful island of Sri Lanka by the ancient ruins founded in the jungles of Polonnaruwa, gives us a perspective of the lives of Macaque monkeys from their eyes. Watching this documentary movie has increased our love and respect for these creatures we had the pleasure of seeing in action during our visits to Sri Lanka.

Take the 7 Day Card Challenge by Winning Hallmark Cards

Selecting a specific card and writing a personal message is a great way to show someone how much we care. I love getting cards, and giving cards to family and friends. Since it is lots of fun to select a unique card that speaks to the style of the person we are giving the card to, and show how we feel I took the Hallmark 7 Card Challenge, and sent out seven cards, in seven days to seven different people.

Sky Zone Trampoline Park in Whitby

We love going to the Sky Zone Trampoline Park, as it is a fun way for the entire family to jump and play. The fourth Sky Zone location in the GTA has opened at 240 South Blair Street, Whitby. This new 34,500 square foot facility in Whitby includes a gigantic Open Jump Court, two Ultimate Dodgeball courts, a three lane SkySlam basketball court, a four lane Foam Zone and four large party rooms.
