-

Thursday, February 4, 2016

Thursday after breakfast we packed up the van and headed out to Haleakala Crate. It was breath taking up there.

In the evening we went to a luau and headed home for jammies and hanging out again.

We stopped for a picnic on the drive down.


Walking through the resort to the luau











Cannibals...




Uncle Dwayne bought us ladies leis made with REAL flowers. They had some little bugs in them but they smelled AMAZING.





The vegetarian options - I do still eat fish occasionally so I had to have some when it's so fresh.

The weather looked like it was going to be crappy but it turned out to be a nice evening.






At the end of the night I asked my dad to take a picture of me and the firethrower and he was like, "K!" and he goes and stands beside the guy and poses with him lol. Clearly he misunderstood that I wanted MY picture taken with him haha.



This is where we went for the luau.

Mexico 2018 - Cardboard Kelsey

So last year I went to New Zealand so I wasn't able to go with the chicas to Mexico. I was joking around with my aunt about taking a cardboard cutout of me and she actually did! I  honestly thought that they would take a few pictures and I'd get left in the room but man they showed cardboard Kelsey a good time! Salvador made us a sign. Trying on Lorna's earrings. Jewelry shopping on the beach! Apparently Ricardo and I met last year lol. Anahi's! They left me in Salvador's care but he didn't know where it was when I went this year lol.

Hello everyone! I decided to make a travel blog as I have gone on a few trips and my boyfriend and I are already discussing where we want to go next. I'm currently in New Zealand and I have taken way too many pictures to post to Facebook so I'm creating this blog to share my pictures and experiences with whoever is interested. 😀 I will make posts for my New Zealand trip and will eventually make posts about the other places that I've been to.

Friday, February 16, 2018: I left this crappy weather for the warmer climate of New Zealand with my boyfriend to visit his sister and her husband. We flew to Calgary from Winnipeg, then to Vancouver, and then the long stretch of 14 hours to Auckland. The above picture was at the Vancouver airport. I love aquariums! We bought these cool boarding pass and passport holders at Bentley. As we had a pile of boarding passes with three flights and they were on sale for $8! Air New Zealand had some pretty wicked food. Dinner was this paneer and mixed veg with rice, a green salad, fresh fruit, a whole wheat bun, and cheese and crackers. I ate mostly everything for dinner and saved the cheese and crackers for a snack. Breakfast was more Indian food (which I love) of paneer and chick peas with mini naan bread, fresh fruit, and a yogurt. We arrived at the Auckland airport at around 5:30AM Auckland time - which is 19 hours ahead of home. So we

March 2 & 3, Saturday and Sunday Well, I've been home for a week and I've had plenty of naps so I guess it's time to blog about my trip. For some reason I was absolutely exhausted after getting home from this trip. I don't think I was this tired after travelling from New Zealand and that was an even longer travel time lol. I missed out on this trip with the ladies last year because I was in New Zealand. Now, I know how amazing it was that I was in New Zealand but it was really hard not to feel like I was missing out because these ladies are THAT fun. They actually took a cardboard cut-out of me last year and showed me a good time. Here are the pictures from that. Calgary airport has doggos that you can pet and cuddle with. This was Clifford and he was the goodest good boy, 13/10. Mom and I booked our flight a few months after the other ladies so we ended up on a different flight with a layover in Calgary. The weekend before we left we wer
