Blue Hawaii and a Good Cup of Joe

I will never forget my first trip to Hawaii. People always talk about their amazing trips to Hawaii, so I decided to put a trip together and go. I booked a package deal to four islands with three weeks in Hawaii. After obtaining my rental car and finding myself on a simple two-lane road, I navigated a short drive east to the beach on the beautiful island of Maui. I could hardly drive as I was feeling the jet-lag. I was already pretty exhausted from my job and life in Los Angeles. Suddenly the bright blue ocean comes into view and I find myself driving along side the beach. It was so beautiful and I was so tired that I pulled my car over on a little drive-off area. I grabbed my towel and walked up the embankment. Looking around at the blue water,I could feel the gentle wind that was blowing the nearby palms. I stood there and laughed, saying out loud, “No wonder everyone comes to Hawaii, this is fantastic.”

3 Reasons to Have Games/Activities at Your Events

This past Saturday I had the privilege to address 60+ individuals from different families who were in the beginning stages of planning their own family reunion. As the keynote speaker I was excited to share my thoughts on “PLAY” and how important it is to incorporate it into their event. At first many of the attendees did not understand why a grown woman was talking to a group of grown folk about something as frivolous as “playing”. After further explanation they all began to believe that having some form of game during their event was essential in providing the best event experience possible.

My First Bed And Breakfast

I have always been fascinated with architecture and old world style, especially from the Victorian age. So as you can imagine something like staying at a bed and breakfast is something I have always wanted to do, but I had never actually done it before, up until a couple of years ago. While my fiance and I were planning our wedding, I suggested for honeymoon that we stay at a bread and breakfast, and she thought that it sounded like a splendid idea. I then went online and started to search on all of the B and Bs that we could travel to, and after reading the reviews on dozens upon dozens of them, I finally found one near the Bruce Peninsula, near Irish Mountain. Since I was Irish myself, and had a great fascination with this culture, this could not have been more ideal for me.
