Travel: Vancouver Eats
Vancouver eats – you need to eat when you travel and although I love having a kitchen, I love eating out. We stayed at Time Square Suites in Vancouver which came with a fully decked out kitchen, yet that doesn’t mean I don’t like a mean taco! Here are our favourite places from Vancouver. Let’s eat! Vancouver Eats While in Vancouver for three days we ate at 4 different spots: Tacofino The Gluten Free Epicurean La Taqueria Hawksworth Restaurant All of them were good –…

Travel: Time Square Suites Vancouver
I flat out love Vancouver. This wonderful city, however, is a tad pricy and finding a beautiful place to stay at a reasonable rate was a little challenging.

Okay, let’s check out some photos. Time Square Suites Each suite comes with a full kitchen. It’s awesome. When we’re…

Travel: Vancouver Aquarium
The Vancouver Aquarium is a spot we hit up on our recent trip to Vancouver. It wasn’t on our ‘agenda’ of sorts, since we were planning on seeing the Seattle Aquarium, yet Bryce’s face just lit up when he heard that Stanley Park had an Aquarium. So, we went and had an awesome time – the best afternoon! If you like jellyfish, then you’ll love the Vancouver Aquarium – it’s filled with so many of them. Oh, and a bonus, they are an educational and…

Travel: Capilano Suspension Bridge Park Vancouver
The Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is a bit of a tourist attraction – correction, it’s for sure a tourist attraction, yet it’s awesome. I had no idea that the temperate rainforest is so awesome!

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park The park is quite big at just under 30 acres and the suspension bridge is the main attraction measuring 450 feet. That’s a lot of…

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: Three Weeks in Southeast Asia
Three weeks in Southeast Asia – well, more like 23 days, yet if you take away the two full travel days to get there from Canada, then ya, 3 weeks! April 13 of last year is the day we set our alarm for 4:44am. Then we caught a plane to Hong Kong. So amazing. The trip took an abundance of planning – visas, accommodations and sites to see; not to mention planning for down time, which is vital to any successful trip. Here is where…
