This past week, Fawn, Jade and I went to the Dominican Republic for our friends' wedding. I think Jade enjoyed the wide variety of experiences, her little brain working like a sponge. She had a lot of firsts, including her first time in the ocean, which she greatly enjoyed.
Yum. Watermelon.

Is that Nemo? Did I find him?!
A school of fish. Apparently, these fish like to eat oats.
Either the ocean is a warm as a bathtub, or someone just peed.I can see how the all-inclusive resort might appeal to some, but I cannot understand why people go back to them vacation after vacation when there are so many beautiful things to see and so any awesome things to do year-round do in northern Canada.
The north is where I like to take my holidays. Luckily, I already live there.

You said it, Michael. I did the tropical thing this year and, while it was nice, to be honest I'd rather go somewhere like Ivvavik or maybe mountain bike the North Canol. We've got the most amazing part of the world so close to us, why go somewhere else? I figure I could spend my whole lifetime trying to visit all the amazing places in the North.
I would love to spend my whole lifetime trying to visit all the amazing places in the North. Know anyone who'd like to sponsor me?
Maybe I should ask the good folks at Boldrush...
Cathy and I went on a 7-day Caribbean cruise this past February, and you can count both of us among those who are hooked. In particular, one of our stops was a private island off the south coast of the Dominican Republic, and it was 9/10 (requiring bathing suits lost it a point!). I don't want to move, but a couple of weeks of heat and warm water (and large pitchers of beer :) ) is not very hard to deal with in the middle of a Yukon winter, regardless of how beautiful and peaceful it is.
