In Halifax, we are starting to get the cold weather. In fact last night we had some windy weather that had me wishing for a vacation.
Well I’m happy to offer you a glimpse of an escape. I won’t be going but one can dream right.?
Check out these very descriptive videos from Go Hawaii that will give you a taste of how you might be able to escape this winter. Weather is changing, might as well head for Hawaii.
It’s a nice way to treat to yourself to a little virtual sand and surf if you’re trapped at your desk or spending way too much time at home with the kids.
