Here’s our next video from our trip to Exuma… If you ever get the opportunity to visit make sure you book a trip with Exuma Water Sports on the 007 Tour for an unforgettable day and certainly one that knocked a few things off our “Bucket List.” Swimming with the sharks has always been a dream and on our next video – we’ll swim with the pigs!
Travelers flying to Canada starting Sept. 30 will experience a raft of new documentation requirements depending on their citizenship. The rules are part of Canada’s Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), established in 2011 to facilitate travel between the U.S. and Canada. A result of the eTA was an effort to more closely scrutinize foreign nationals from visa-exempt countries.
We’ve uploaded the second video from our trip to Exuma, Bahamas. While on Exuma Water Sports 007 Tour we did a quick stop to visit the iguanas and feed them…watch your toes, they look like grapes to the giant lizards!
We were in the middle of booking our next trip to Europe when we discovered that our passports would expire 2 days after our scheduled return home. Uh oh… some countries require you to have 6 months available after your departure date – otherwise they won’t let you in. It’s a bit excessive, but that’s the new world we’re living in. No problem, we’ll just renew our passports and they’ll tack the remaining 6 months on to the end of our new expiry date – after all we’ve paid for that six months and it’s not our fault other countries make that rule – right? You’d think that would be so, but not if you’re Canadian.
We’ve added the September Desktop Calendar. This month it’s the Bavarian town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany … we hope you like it! Visit our “Downloads” page for a full-size image.
We’ve had a YouTube channel for a couple of years now, but haven’t uploaded more than a couple of our videos … well … that’s about to change! Today we’ve uploaded the first of 8 videos from our trip to Exuma, Bahamas – a true paradise just an hour from Florida. We hope you enjoy our series, starting with this amazing experience at Stocking Island where we got to swim with, feed and pet the stingrays! We only spent an afternoon on Stocking Island – we experiences a lot, but missed so much – so we’ll be sure to spend a full day there when we go back.
Mobile Phone, Tablet, MP3 Player, Laptop Computer, iPhone, iPad Kindle… we’ve all got several or all of those tech-toys. How often do we put them down and re-charge ourselves? Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Selfies, Periscope etc….. In our tech-obsessed era of constant connectivity we rarely take a vacation or holiday from work. It’s imperative that we take the time to cut the ties and take a Tech-Free holiday/vacation. Here are some tips to help you rejuvenate YOU…
