Fun Family Escapades

Meet Up in Las Vegas .... March 2018

Our favourite buffet of all - back  to Bacchanal @ Caesars...they still had these succulent stone crab claws ...sooo awesome!

A tribute to Mother Earth @ Bellagio conservatory - this year a fitting welcome of Springtime. It's obligatory to check out the staged flora themes while in Vegas!

Family fun - top golf. New concept that combines golf with the added challenge to precisely nail your shot to the target to score the most points...aka bowling or cricket??

 Kids picked Scarpetta to celebrate Tom's belated 60th years young!

 @ Lago in Bellagio 

Took in three shows - Bee Gees ( great time down memory lane) / The One ( best one of the bunch... impressive acro & dance infused with Jacksons best hits plus a creative techno stage presentation / Absinthe ( the jokes will be funnier if you've imbibed some prior to getting in.... its where I learned the genre of comedy termed 'aristocrates'..)

Staying central strip @ Palazzo.
Vacationing with the younger generation gave us an intro into the hassel free and efficiency of ubering in Vegas ..works perfectly for a city such as this since the rides to and from dinner or shows along the strip are best navigated with short group shuttles. Impressed with the fail safe & immediacy of the app.

Killarney Mountain Resort - July 2011

Packing up ..one last look at Topaz Lake.

Tasty fish fry and potatoes on the rocks.

    Family rock-art expressions ...

    Meanwhile....back at the ranch ...plotting more fun & games...

After the chow-down;
Giddiup ...lets go...!!

The climb to the "Crack" in Killarney provincial park in the Bruce Peninsula was both scenic and exhilarating. The native silicate and quartzite rocks formed a dramatic backdrop to the undisturbed blanket of northern pines and spruces.

On the first week of July 2011, the Wu family returned to a favorite Ontario lodge set in the midst of a pristine preserve by the shores of Georgian Bay - Killarney Mountain Resort. This time three of the Wongs joined us and Cyrene's boyfriend, Jonathan, came along to partake in some traditional cottage fun times - kayaking, mountain hiking, volleyballing, lots of Raiders of Catan games & even some Ma-Jonging.
