Here’s how I planned the perfect day for the whole family

Over the last decade-ish since living in Toronto, and subsequently Ottawa again, my immediate family has planned a yearly trip to Mont-Tremblant. Almost always in July or August, I was able to attend once or twice at most because I was booked or otherwise busy. This time centered around my brother Alex’s birthday mid August, this year we all started to talk about it VERY early and I committed to not booking anything for those few days so that I could attend the whole thing.

Spending time with niece, nephew, brother, sister-in-law, and #MamaSue has been a necessity in my life this year, and something I really have come to appreciate in an entirely new way. In a fabulous twist, we decided to switch up the destination (see you next year Mont-Tremblant. PS, call me and let’s collab) – and I wanted to share how I planned the PERFECT day for the whole family.

Canada’s Wonderland is Back, and so is The #WonderCrew!

With the excitement of the summer, of the freedom that vaccinations are bringing, and just a general sense of overwhelming relief comes signs that life’s beautiful moments are coming back as well. From being able to see my niece and nephew outside for family BBQs months after moving to Ottawa, to resuming one of my absolute favourite parts of the warmer weather in Ontario – yes, you guessed it. Canada’s Wonderland is safely re-opening and with that comes another year of Julio & I joining the #WonderCrew. So get ready for many more rollercoaster photos, BTS moments, food and so much laughter in the sun.

Long Weekend Vibes

Now that I’ve been to Canada’s Wonderland for Media Day (click here to watch the highlights on our Instagram account), I’m already trying to sort out exactly how many visits I can get in this season with my Gold Season Pass to the park. The May long weekend has always been one that I find myself spending outside as much as possible. So from the gardening I plan on doing, to visiting the park for their long weekend fireworks spectacular, I wanted to share some of my long weekend #vibes to inspire your own!

An Exciting New Ride for Thrill Seekers

Thrill seekers unite – Canada’s Wonderland is set to open the world’s longest and fastest dive roller coaster in Spring 2019 and the entire team in Toronto cannot wait! I can remember my first experience at Canada’s Wonderland vividly. We took a field trip in my grade 11 physics class. It was my first time ever visiting the park, and I was both excited and nervous. I didn’t have a lot of roller coaster experiences in the past, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The very first ride I ever rode was Thunder Run, and let me tell you, I was terrified. Looking back, it makes me chuckle a little because I’m now the complete opposite, constantly searching for the next hair raising experience.
