“Experience Regina” Parody (Watch It To See Some of Regina’s “Highlights”) You may have heard that Tourism Regina recently rebranded. It started with a teaser clip and message on social media at the start of March: It’s All Happening… Let’s push the narrative; the same old is boring. Our city is changing, and that means […]
Sunday March 5 is our 20th wedding anniversary and there’s a fitting story from our Mexican Beach Wedding for Secular Sunday. We used a wedding coordinator in Mexico to make arrangements including specifically requesting a non-religious officiant. The guy showed up the day of our ceremony and it was clear that he actually was *quite* […]
The resort we were just at was almost all the way to Tulum (which is two hours south of Cancun.). Our resort was about an hour and a half south of the Cancun airport.
Going to combine the last two colours of the rainbow in today’s post because: a) can anyone tell me the difference between indigo and violet? and b) if you can, do you think I can find two drinks that fit those two shades of purple? Her: Caribbean Princess (not on cocktail menu but I think […]
Gotta admit – was looking forward to this day/colour for some reason…maybe blue just feels both unnatural as a food/drink colour but also very fitting for the tropics?

Her: Mojito Him: Caipirinha (which I believe would be as popular as the mojito if it had a more easily pronounceable name! Also, mine should be greener as I’ve had them with a lot more limes.)
Her: Pineapple Mojito Him: Pineapple Mojito (They’re really good!)
Him = Bay Breeze Her = Mai Tai (And I think it was the lighting or the cups or maybe even my shirt absorbing all the orange in the room. But you’ll have to trust me that these drinks were more orange than yellow – honest!)
We made it to Mexico! If you read my (long) Year End post, you’ll see that I (mostly) quit drinking. I didn’t go full AA so that I could allow myself the occasional indulgence (or more if I’m at an all-inclusive for instance.) For example, after a long delay including a text from WestJet at […]
It looks like fun but there were a couple times during the Foam Party at Hyatt Ziva in Cancun when I felt absolute terror – no lie. The foam would get so thick and high near the foam cannon that it would encompass you and you literally couldn’t breathe! Hopefully I do better at the […]
