    Travel: Jasper Sky Tram

    The Jasper Sky Tram was a highlight of our weekend getaway to Jasper a few weekends ago. The best part? They let Daphne on the tram! Jasper Sky Tram The hotel we stayed at (following all COVID-19 protocols) had a voucher for $50.00 off a handful of attractions in the area, one of them being the tram. That, paired with Daphne’s ticket being $5.45, we signed up for a flight around 10am on Sunday. The day was beautiful and full of so much fresh and…

    4 days in Las Vegas, Nevada. This past January, before increased travel restrictions, we headed to Las Vegas for 4 days.

    Travel: Paris Eats

    Paris eats – here are some of our favourite places to eat in Paris, France. I’m a celiac so it’s a bit tricky for me when travelling, and to top that off, I’m not a huge fan of French food. I know, right?! Part of trip planning for me often involves searching out restaurants and making sure they have something GF. Since, as I’m sure you can relate, it’s so frustrating when I’m hungry, in a city I don’t know, and I can’t find food.…

    Travel: Musical Gardens Versailles

    The Musical Gardens at Versailles – they are beautiful and especially so on a bright and sunny day. Most often you can get the gardens included in your ticket, yet they’re not included in the Paris Museum Pass. We purchased the tickets separately. While we enjoyed ourselves, the added cost of seeing the gardens wasn’t quite worth it. Musical Gardens Versailles We spent about 45 minutes exploring the grounds which I can only image cost a fortune to upkeep. One thing we noted, however, is…

    Travel: Palace of Versailles

    Palace of Versailles is about an hour outside of Paris by train. We train hopped twice and made it in about 48 minutes with a 12 minute walk through the city of Versailles. Arrive early, since as you can see from the photo above, the line is long to get through security. Took us about 45 minutes to get into the palace. Once in we used our phones with the Palace of Versailles app to listen to the in-depth tour of the royal residence. Palace…

    Travel: Musée d’Orsay

    The Musée d’Orsay is worth the visit – to me, it’s better than any other museum in Paris and quite possibly my favourite museum of all time. It’s full of so much impressionist art and I could sit there and stare at it all day long. Not to mention the location of this place is beautiful. Right by the river with all the boats and traffic, so urban and cosmopolitan. Musée d’Orsay Our first stop at the Musée – the Upper Level 5. Full of…
