@mattearoach @Jeopardamy @AmodioMatt I’d much rather watch you, Matt and Amy than American politics!

Used the new eGates after landing at Pearson recently. Brilliant! Really sped up passage through customs and immigration. Now if they could just fix the other problems … I hear things are improving but still a way to go. #TorontoPearson #travel

@JimByersTravel @DavidHSwanson @WindstarCruises @TravelAlaska I’ve done 3 Alaska cruises with 3 different cruise lines and different experiences every time. Saw bears, whales, otters, eagles, glaciers “calving,” helicoptered to and walked on on a glacier, flew into a remote lodge in a float plane, and more, very memorable. You’d love it.

After yesterday’s minor but irritating hassles (14-hour blackout, worrying about food in the fridge, needing to upload travel docs, phone dying, etc.), I was prepared for a bad time at Pearson today. Miraculously I cleared security in 3 mins! Bermuda sunshine here I come!

@PatriciaGailLee Happy holidays to you and yours Pat. We had a family gathering of 10, but unfortunately it’s almost impossible to get rapid tests unless you’re willing to line up for hours and maybe come away empty handed. However, everyone was double or triple vaxxed. Hopefully 2022 is better!

@PatriciaGailLee He or she really put on a show! So thrilling to see in person.

@JimByersTravel @satw @VISITFLORIDA Gorgeous!

@SunnyCynthia Glad you haven't lost your sense of humour!

[Robin Robinson @RobinSUNroams]

@JimByersTravel Well said Jim!

@candicewalsh Congrats Candice! I predict your tourism bust will be followed by a boom when it’s safe to travel again!

I laugh with derision each time I hear a disgraced politician say they plan to self isolate for 14 days after returning from a vacation abroad. So, we’re supposed to applaud them for following a mandatory government regulation? #wednesdaythought #Travel #COVID19

@SunnyCynthia Who knew Kirkland Lake had such an interesting history. Thanks for sharing.

@MonteMathews Looks fab and our garden tomatoes are almost ready for picking!

[Robin Robinson @RobinSUNroams]

@SunnyCynthia @CandaceBushnell Not so bad when compared to some of the things we wore in the early 70s — too long bell bottoms with raggedy bottoms, floppy hats, sky-high platform shoes — and those were in style!

@gord_walsh You’ll love being a grandfather Gord!

With no delivery/pick up available for almost 2 weeks how are the frail elderly and vulnerable population suppose to get groceries if they live alone and don’t have anyone to shop for them? Our government needs a plan to deliver supplies to shut-ins!

[Robin Robinson @RobinSUNroams]

The government keeps on talking about ordering groceries online. There is no delivery avail near me and no order/pickup windows til April 9!

[Robin Robinson @RobinSUNroams]

@SunnyCynthia We might need a few of these staples in the coming weeks!

@JimByersTravel I spent an afternoon there during a cruise stop in Barcelona. The scenery is breathtaking.
