Spring is in the air - you can smell it as the fresh scent of early blooms burst open. There's a wonderful place in British Columbia only 90 minutes by car from Vancouver where you and your family can explore country farms, hike, bike or float on a lake during this gorgeous time of year. That place is Harrison Hot Springs.
Tulips, daffodils dance amongst a dazzling range of vibrant green and lush vegetation. When the sun is shining, it's incredibly fun to hop on a bicycle to tour the wide country roads. Sample locally grown produce and specialty jams, jellies and sauces. Indulge in home-made ice cream at the local creamery.
This is a place to visit for the day, or better still, stay for at least two or more!

Our radio show on March 31st found us on yet another magical getaway with Disney! Gazing out across the exquisite blue of the Carribean waters, high up on the 14th deck, this trip found us inspecting the lavish, sparkling new Disney Fantasy Cruise ship. Inspired by sailings of long ago, the ship is adorned from stem to stern in finishings and furnishings bespoke of days when travel was indeed a luxury. Art deco is the theme with crystals, lots of wood and lots of windows. Gorgeous colours befitting a peacock - varying shades of blue to deep greens, accented by burgundy and deep luscious reds, complement the rich golds and creamy yellows.
Based out of Port Canaveral in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this stunning ship transports its guests throughout the east and western Caribbean, with enchanting days spent at Disney's private island...Castaway Cay. Ideal for families, this little piece of paradise is one of Disney's most enchanting deliveries. Private cabanas adorn the beaches - perfect for a private side by side couples massage, or to keep a sleeping babe safe while mommy and daddy grab some Vitamin D from the sun, there's a funky little bar close by for a cool one or some delicious snacks.
Come sail with me as I share an Insider's View of this enchanting getaway for kids of all ages.
Getting There:
My choice is via WestJet - no strikes, great staff on the ground and in the air, ensuring a really pleasant trip for every single guest. Check out schedules and rates here. The trip takes approximately 8 hours from Vancouver, however if you've got relatives in Ontario, why not stay over a day or two enroute breaking up the travel time a wee bit? Family is always happy to see family!
