One the the stop off places on our Trans-Canadian adventure was the Amethyst Mine Panorama. We stopped here on our way to Thunder Bay. If you have children (especially those who enjoy digging and exploring and all things shiny), or love of amethyst yourself, this is an absolute must stop off place.
As much as I love Autumn, I must admit that it is really lovely to still have some warm weather around, much like this time last year. My memories popped up from the first week of September last year and we were having a BBQ and had the paddling pool out still! I know lots of people that have packed away their summer outfits and already got the warm jumpers and Halloween decorations out!
As the rising cost of living continues to stretch budgets with little signs of slowing down, it can be an extremely worrying time for many people living across Britain. This is especially true for families and can create questions that are difficult for parents to answer.

There’s no place like New York City. With its towering skyscrapers, vibrant neighbourhoods, and world-famous landmarks, the city that never sleeps is a must-see destination for tourists from around the globe.

During the transitional period of the perimenopause and menopause, commonly reported symptoms to include everything from headaches and hot flushes to brain fog and memory issues.

One of the stops we made during our Trans-Canadian road trip was Thunder Bay, driving from Wawa the previous day, which was around 5h15 in total. We broke this up with lots of interesting stops along the way, a couple of which are included here.
After leaving the humidity of Niagara Falls, where we had felt as if we were melting, we drove a couple of hours to Barrie in Ontario, where we made a very welcome stop off at Splash ON.
