This year my Mother's Day was the best one yet! why? because my whole family was invited down for a behind the scenes look at one of my favourite family friendly places- The Toronto Zoo! The Toronto Zoo will forever hold a special place in my heart as being our first travel destination as a family of five. It was our first hotel stay and our first big venue and it was a success! It was exhausting but a success none the less! It made us realize we really could do travel and fun with … [Read more...]

We all know and love the Toronto Zoo for a summertime day of fun, but did you know that you can visit the zoo all year round??? It's true! The Toronto Zoo is open 364 days of the year! The only day you can't visit your favourite animals is on Christmas day because well, even the animals celebrate that day with their families! lol This year my family and I rang in the New Year at a celebration right at the zoo! It was a fun family friendly event that featured … [Read more...]

This past week we took some holidays to have one last hurrah for summer! We travelled to the T-Dot for a couple of nights in a hotel and visited … [Read more...]

There's so much to see and do in Niagara Falls, my last post was on Marineland, but, just being in a hotel is exciting for my crew. Luckily for mom and dad the pool at the hotel was a warm one! We hate cold water and the kids are so young and out number us that we need both of us in the water. We made it swimming 3 times during our stay. … [Read more...]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Travelling with kids is not a "holiday". That's completely misleading! lol 'holiday' conjures up images of stress free relaxation and this on the other hand, is not. But we went ahead and had ourselves a little getaway with the kids and had some family fun nonetheless. We loaded up the boys and took a road trip to Niagara Falls, Ontario. A visit to Marineland was a big part of our trip taking a full day to enjoy and it was a huge hit with the … [Read more...]
