Audrey had a blast traveling to both Curacao and Las Vegas recently!
In Curacao, she had a great time wandering through the town and soaking up the sun on the beach whenever she had the chance. Staying at the Sandals resort was a real treat, and she can't wait to recommend it to any couples looking for a peaceful getaway from their crazy busy lives.
When she was in Las Vegas, Audrey had a blast with her family trying out all the delicious food the city has to offer and checking out all the cool sights. And let me tell you, you absolutely can't miss seeing the Sphere when you're there! It's a must-see attraction for sure.

Did you know that 87% of families with a loved one on the autism spectrum don't take vacations? But here's the thing - 93% of them would if they had more information about helpful resources and accommodations.
Audrey, a mom to a child with autism, understands the difficulties of family travel firsthand. Her advice is to start with small trips to suitable resorts, as they can make a significant difference and build confidence for future journeys.
There are resorts that employ specially trained nannies who cater to guests on the spectrum. These resorts offer one-on-one buddies to provide families with some respite and ensure a pleasant experience for everyone. With a range of tailored services, these resorts are a game-changer for families looking to vacation with ease.
If you're interested in learning more about traveling with autism and planning a family vacation that caters to every member, reach out to Audrey for valuable insights and guidance.
After giving it our all and knocking it out of the park, the dream team needs some well-deserved downtime to recharge those batteries. I mean, even superheroes need to retreat to their secret hideouts every once in a while to regroup and come back stronger, right?
Happy Canada Day from your favourite Canadian travel professionals! Who's ready to take off, eh! 🇨🇦 🍁✈️

Dublin was a full day of exploring!
Today on our way to Dublin we stopped at the Kilbeggan Whiskey Distillery. It was founded in 1757 and ceased operations in 1957.
Their licence was maintained and the distillery was later refurbished approximately 50 years later with the help of the town. Distilling recommencing on-site in 2007 on their 250th anniversary. They restarted more of a boutique distillery with modern equipment to replicate the process from long ago keeping their history alive.
The Cliffs of Moher. Amazing! Their highest point is 240 meters high and are 8 km long. If you come early in the morning you may spot the Puffins. They burrow along the grassy cliff area. Guillemot and the Razorbill. These birds lay their eggs along the cliffs.
What a busy day! We were given an extra treat of dinner and a show by the Hysterical History Cork. They were so good! Depicting the long years of history with laughter and skits. 💕
Earlier today the Titanic Experience and then the Midleton Distillery Experience. Free time in between.
Stopped for lunch and entertainment at The Marine Bar/pub. What a truly authentic experience! Loved it! ☘️
The start of day 2 on the Irish Twist Tour. First stop The Dunbrody in Rosslare. The ship brought timber from Montreal to Ireland and immigrants back to Montreal and Savannah.
A full 1st day outside of Dublin today. Silverware and jewelry and Christmas ornament making, lunch and the beautiful countryside. 💕 ☘️
