Twenty-four hours until we’re heading for the airport! Not sure how I first came across this groovy western Canadian reggae song (I think it was used for someone else’s travel montage video on YouTube?) but it’s become a staple of my “Tropical Holiday” playlist. The lyric version of this song is easier to understand… …but the live […]

Saturday Snap – Mexico 2018 #ThePalaceLife
My parents are already in Mexico and sent us this photo…
One Week to Moon Palace @PalaceResorts #ThePalaceLife
After nearly seven months of waiting, in seven days we’ll be at this resort!
Music Monday – “Remember me/Don’t let it make you cry/For even if I’m far away/I hold you in my heart/I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart” #ThePalaceLife
One week until we go to Mexico and the preparations are heating up (you’d think staying for two weeks instead of one simply means you pack twice as many bathing suits but unfortunately, that’s not the case!) Plus we’ve got a busy week ahead of us with a variety of appointments, meetings (though I found […]
Friday Fun Link – Countdown to Moon Palace Cancun Continues @palaceresorts #ThePalaceLife
Only 11 days until we head for Mexico and only four working days left since next week is shortened due to Family Day. Can. Not. Wait!
Friday Fun Link – 10 Things I’m Looking Forward To On Our #MoonPalace #Cancun Vacation @palaceresorts #ThePalaceLife

Music Monday – “Down through Durango, Colima, Almiera/Then in the Manzanillo/Where I slept in the sunshine on the seashores of old Mexico” #ThePalaceLife
Less than a month to Mexico… (And it’s like a time machine working through the versions of this song – from the original Hank Snow to the 80’s era Haggard-Willie duet to the more modern George Straight version with a video shot in Tulum – aka the only place that I have ever got really […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – One Month (and A Couple Days) Until Mexico (February 2017) #ThePalaceLife
Here’s a few random pics from our trip last year…
2017 End of Year Memes: Blog Blows Up, Libraries Live, Seasonal Summer, Tropical Travels
1. What did you do this year that you’d never done before? Testified at a Labour Relations Board hearing. It’s a long story but for the past few years, the library I work at has been moving towards getting in-scope Branch Heads turned into out-of-scope Branch Managers. Again, long story with many twists and turns […]
