The outpouring of support after the horrible Humboldt Broncos bus accident that killed 16 people and left 13 more injured has been unprecedented. People from not only across Saskatchewan and Canada but indeed, from around the world, have sent money and condolences. Tonight, the GoFundMe page that originally aimed to raise $10,000 and is about […]
A few years back, I did a post where I listed 10 things that were important to us when selecting an all-inclusive resort for our vacations. That list, in no particular order, included the following: Multiple/big pools Decent, non-repetitive food Beautiful beach Unique bars Kids Club Oceanview Room A la carte restaurants Wifi Nearby city/attractions […]
As I said in an earlier post, Moon Palace Cancun nails pretty much everything on my “10 Things I Want in An All-Inclusive” list except that the nearest city (Cancun) is a bit further away then I’d like and Moon Palace Cancun doesn’t have a great beach/swimmable ocean (which then becomes a deal-breaker in terms of […]
Shea and I learned a lot from a private Facebook Group dedicated to the resort we just visited and in one of my posts from the resort right before our holiday ended, I mentioned that I’d likely post a review on my blog and/or that group and/or TripAdvisor after we got home. I still haven’t […]
1. Parasailing We went parasailing on the Cancun beach in front of the Moon Palace’s sister resort, Beach Palace. Three people. Twenty Minutes. $270 USD. Amazing Experience = Priceless. 😉 2. Break Dance Show Surprise The break dance show at Sunrise was one of the best evening shows we saw, made even better at the […]
1. Two week all-inclusive vacations are more than 2x better than one week all-inclusive vacations! 2. Shea and I are big fans of trying new resorts, new destinations and even new resort companies with every trip we take. But Moon Palace is probably the first resort I’d consider returning to as it nails pretty much everything on my […]
There’s half a dozen reasons I support Ryan in a single photo: 1) he’s now an MLA, 2) he spends a lot of time in the Legislative Library researching and reading, 3) he’s (probably) the only current MLA who has a book in that same library, 4) so many people I knew in that room […]
This will be the first time we’ve done a two-week all-inclusive and I think it’ll be very luxurious considering a typical one-week vacation often only feels like much less than that since the first day is a travel day, the second day is a decompress/orientation day and then the second last day (for me anyhow) […]
Of all the hardcore political junkies I know/follow on Twitter/Facebook/elsewhere, I honestly don’t remember anyone picking Moe to win. I would say about 60% picked Chevy, 30% picked Koch (including me) and 10% picked Wyant. True, that might also be because Moe doesn’t seem very memorable in general (I heard him described as “where charisma […]
I first got seriously involved with the Sask NDP after Ryan Meili announced as a candidate in the party’s 2009 Leadership contest. For that reason, I thought it might be useful for anyone reading this who is just getting involved with the Sask NDP now because of Ryan (or his opponent or simply because they’re […]
