Spa escape

Turning this into an annual tradition for SF's birthday! Drove up to Collingwood for the day to relax and zen out at le Scandinavia Spa. This time we really made the best of it.  My friend Mrs. L-O joined us on this sunny September day. Did about 7 cycles of hot, cold, rest in the Scandinavian baths before heading for massages. Some friends had gotten me a gift certificate for my birthday several months back, so I was excited to try my first massage ever!  I think I have to get used to random man with his hands all on me, but eventually I relaxed and enjoyed it. We returned to the pools for several more cycles of hot, cold, relax and repeat and by this time we were super relaxed and moving at a noticeably slower pace. Chilling by a nice fire as the sun set and glowed through the flowers was an ideal setting.  Had perfect weather and really only extracted ourselves from this bliss because we were hungry! We ended our day with a rib feast before returning to the city.

Lost my spa vibes almost immediately as I had some work to catch up on late at night before calling it. Already daydreaming of going back!

The Ex, 2015

Every year for the past several, an evolving group of friends, but always some staples, have gone to the Blue Rodeo show at the Amphitheatre.  It's our traditional ultra-Canadian wind down of Summer.  After the show, we head to the Ex as a large gang to hit as many rides and eat as much junk as possible before they shut down for the night.  These are some snapshots from this past Saturday night!  I always love all the lights, colours and delicious gaudiness of the midway at night!  Hope to head back and visit my favourite alpaca friends in the farm building before the Exhibition wanders away for another year after Labour Day!

Happy Canada Day!

Showing lots of love for Canada today!  Happy 148th to this amazing, free, democratic, beautiful land! Hope you enjoyed a fantastic Canada Day!

Oh hi!

Hi guys!  Sorry for the absence! I've been busy traveling and enjoying the Spring and these first couple days of Summer.  I plan to share some photos in the next few days.  In the meantime, look at this cute pup!  Took a lovely long walk with KK and her big happy poodle yesterday.
