Next Year, All Our Troubles Will Be Out of Sight
|
|
I was reminded of Judy Garland's version of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" song this week. A MacLean's article was touting the relevance of this 76 year old song to today's pandemic world. See MacLeans
As the article notes, the original Judy version, from "Meet Me in St. Louis," was a little more dreary than the Frank Sinatra version. Maybe dreary isn't the right word - realistic, maybe? Whatever you might call it, it certainly suits the pandemic Christmas.
Someday soon we all will be together
If the fates allow
Until then, we’ll have to muddle through somehow
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now
and
Once again as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who were dear to us
Will be near to us once more
I've never been so happy to see a year end. So, I'm repeating some of my favourite videos and memes here to give you a chuckle as we close out 2020. Can't wait for a few days to say - HINDSIGHT IS 2020!
Here's hoping:
Next Year, All Our Troubles Will Be Out of Sight!

Northwest Territories - Northern Lights
|
|
One of my western colleagues at Vision Travel has put together a really special group to visit the Northern Lights in Northwest Territories this March.
Actually, she put together this small group with a re-known Canadian wildlife photographer, Dr. Wayne Lynch, around the Equinox with March 18-23, 2021. It quickly sold out.
She's now looking to do a second week of March 24-29, 2021, and is designing the trip to align with the Equinox to see the Northern Lights in Yellowknife (one of the top 3 places in the world to see Northern Lights). The photographer she is working with is a well-known Canadian wildlife specialist too, Dr. Wayne Lynch. http://waynelynch.ca/welcome.html
My colleague is reconfirming the last bits together on the pricing for the second week, but it looks like 6d, 5n for about $3600 Cdn/p for double and about $3900 Cdn for solo (excluding air, meals; including 3 Northern Lights Aurora viewing outings and some other special things). A winter gear package is available.
The trip only goes ahead if advisories lifted – and – if not, trip can be moved to March 2022. Let me know if you'd like the pdf for this trip, and would like to consider doing the trip for the second week of March 24-29, 2021.
We're also building an interest list for 2021. Let me know if you're interested.
