Kelowna

Going up to Kelowna is nothing unusual, but this was the first time I'd driven up without my parents.

Kat and I only stayed for three nights, but it was a ton of fun and we're already planning our trip back up there this summer.

Disneyland: where dreams come true

Last July, I got to go on one of the coolest trips to Disneyland. Now, Disneyland is cool in itself, but this time around I got to dance in two of the parades along with my studio and multiple others. The coordinator is Dance the Magic.
It was a crazy few days running around Disneyland and California Adventure, but it is a trip I will never forget.
Somehow during all the craziness, I did manage to snap a few pictures and chase after so face characters. Except I couldn’t find Flynn Rider.
Funny story: My friends found it hilarious how I was the oldest one in the group, yet I while they were waiting in lines for ride, they would see me racing past to get photos with face characters.
Another funny story: While we were walking in backstage California Adventure there were trailers and Lilo from Lilo and Stitch walked out and I freaked out and yelled and her security guards had to push her back into her trailer.

Viva, Las Vegas!

 

This was my second time going to Las Vegas, but it was just as crazy and unpredictable as the first. This time around, though, my dad tagged along and it was mainly just a getaway.

One of my favourite hotels is the Aria, which is where my family and I stay most times, but this time around we decided to try something different.

Pretty much all I did during this trip was shop an sun tan, which is perfectly fine in my books. However, we did go see the show Million Dollar Quartet, which was amazing!

New York City, I love you

It was a school trip that I went on with my yearbook class and teachers, but my mom ended up meeting me there a week into the trip so we could stay longer. The trip was for a journalism workshop at Columbia University. I still like to say I attended an Ivy League school, even if it was only for five days.

The happiest place on earth: Disneyland!

Around the beginning of grade eleven, my mom decided to surprise me with a weekend trip to Disneyland with her and my grandma. I hadn't been to Disneyland since I was four and I love all things Disney.

Puerto Vallarta

In 2011, my parents, a friend and I all went back to Puerto Vallarta for spring break. This time around we stayed at the Villa del Palmar

What happens in Vegas...

As an early-Christmas present, my mom took me to Las Vegas to see two Cirque du Soleil shows: Viva Elvis (which is no longer running at the Aria) and Beatles LOVE (which still plays at the Mirage).
The Aria is an amazi

Bedford and Halifax, Nova Scotia

While my mom and I were in Saint John, she figured we should take a quick ferry ride to Nova Scotia to visit with her friend from high school.
Halifax is a pretty cool city.
