Travel: Science World Vancouver
Science World Vancouver It’s one of the coolest places if you like science and having fun. For some reason Bryce and I love science centres – I think it’s because we’re just big kids at heart. We loved the Hong Kong Science Museum and Vancouver had a similar set up – the mind teasers are so much fun. This epic omnimax is unforgettable. We saw Dream Big: Engineering Our World – see it if you get the chance. Science World is located on Quebec Street and…

Travel: Vancouver Snapshot
Vancouver snapshot. I love travel snapshots – I share a few pictures while we’re on the road traveling. And blog a bit about the city we’re in.

It’s because those posts takes a lot of time – and let’s be honest, right now, I’d rather see the city I’m in! This Vancouver snapshot is just a few…

Travel: Northern Lights
The Northern Lights in Yellowknife! We visited Yellowknife in early February had a lot of fun – we visited the flags of the Northwest Territories, drove on ice roads and saw the aurora borealis. Something to note – you can’t always see them. The lights may be there, bouncing around and shining away, yet the clouds will be blocking your view.

We stayed warm and took pictures when our hands weren’t freezing. First – we drove and stayed in High Level on the way there…
