Head Out On a Summer Adventure with the 2014 Ford Escape

July 14, 2014 by Kathryn 56 Comments

Our summers are always full of travel and this year has been no exception. From a week-long trip to explore North Dakota to a weekend excursion in Edmonton to a few day trips around Saskatchewan, we’ve been having a blast enjoying the warm weather and indulging in some summer adventures. And to make those adventures even better, Ford Canada recently let me test-drive the new 2014 Ford Escape so that we could hit the road in style!

This car lives up to its name in every way; as soon as I was behind the wheel I wanted to head out on the highway and see something new. As a family vehicle, it combines fuel efficiency, power and roominess in the most ideal way. And with the option of adding a Class II Trailer Tow Package, it can even be used to hook up that camper or boat for some wilderness exploration.

Ready to Indulge in a Now Resorts & Spas #ResortEscape at the Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun

March 21, 2014 by Kathryn 48 Comments

This post brought to you by Now Resorts & Spas. All opinions are 100% mine.

Near the end of January, I shared information about the four amazing Now Resorts & Spas properties in Mexico and the Dominican Republic. I needed advice about which resort to visit and all of my amazing readers were happy to oblige. I am so happy that everyone shared their opinions because I won a trip for two to the property of my choice as well as one to give away to a reader!

After plenty of deliberation, I decided to book my vacation to the Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun in Mexico. There were a few features that stood out to me about this gorgeous resort and I am so excited to experience it for myself. I have to admit, the fact that I'll be travelling without my boys was a key factor in my decision! Enjoying yoga on the beach and the huge variety of water sports such as kayaking, windsurfing and riding the waves on Hobie cats sounded too appealing to pass up. And I have a passionate love of Tappenyaki dining, so I can't wait to enjoy a lively gourmet meal at the Lemongrass restaurant!

Escaping for the Day with Ford Canada and the 2013 Ford Escape #FordEscape

October 8, 2012 by Kathryn 11 Comments

About a month ago, I had the chance to attend the Ford Escape for the Day event as part of the Escape’s nationwide tour, so my sister and I headed to the Sheraton Cavalier hotel in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to learn about the 2013 Ford Escape and spend the day enjoying some fun activities. The event started with a drive to the Western Development Museum, where we got the chance to drive through a closed course and see firsthand the way Ford is using the latest technology to make driving as safe as it can be.

Driving on the closed course was really something else. From swerving around pylons to a brake test to sudden obstacle avoidance, the way we were told to drive the cars through the course was nothing like everyday driving. “Put the pedal to the floor and don’t let up until it’s time to slam on the brakes,” I was told, and the fun-loving daredevil in me came out full force as I sped through the course with my slightly frightened sister beside me.
