Room Tour ~ Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Bedford, N.S. {Part 1 of 2}
I am so lucky to have best friends that are also my sisters. We all live within a twenty-minute drive of each other and we try to get together as often as possible. Sometimes it's just for coffee and a chat but at least a couple of times a year we like to take a little "girl's trip". Often it's just a day trip, maybe to a nearby beach or national park.

A Girls Trip to Fundy National Park

We based our stay out of one of the cutest little cottages, Captain's Lookout Cottages, located in New Horton, N.B. (sounds like it could be in a Dr. Seuss book doesn't it...lol). We picked this cottage, not only for … [Read more...]

And...we were feeling the need for some more sisters time! We rented a little cottage in New Horton, New Brunswick, packed our coolers and suitcases and were on our way. We only had a couple of days together so did not want to travel far, so we decided to explore the Fundy coast. Cape Enrage is about … [Read more...]
Amsterdam Inn & Suites Quispamsis, N.B. ~ Hotel Room Tour
I'm not sure why, but for some reason, when I thought of the Amsterdam Inn chain, I had a pre-conceived notion that they were just OK, nothing special. Boy, was I wrong! My daughter recently stayed at the Amsterdam Inn & Suites in Quispamsis, N.B.. She was thrilled with her room and found the staff friendly and very helpful. The Amsterdam Inn in Quispamsis is located at 114 Millennium Dr., just off Highway # 1 at Exit 141 in Quispamsis, New Brunswick, CANADA. Nearby attractions … [Read more...]
