A trip to remember.....


Yesterday morning myself and a group of really good friends boarded a huge comfortable Great Canadian Holidays and Coaches bus and headed to Niagara Falls for a wonderful day of Christmas fun.

We arrived at the “Oh Canada Eh?” Dinner Theatre at about 12:15pm and were treated to a home style Christmas Turkey lunch with all the trimmings. After lunch we spent 2 magical hours back in the 50’ and 60’s where 6 people were stranded on Christmas Eve at a Diner. Each person had their own personal problems but with the help of 2 angels who were trying to earn their Angel Wings and the magic of the season, each person over came their problems and added to the spirit of Christmas by singing and dancing to every Christmas carol you could think of. The Christmas Musical was called Jump, Jingle & Jive, and let me tell you, everyone was having a wonderful time. With the cast and audience singing Christmas carols the whole place WAS jumping, jiving and jingling. It certainly got me waaaaaaaaaay into the Christmas Spirit.

After the show, we all loaded into the bus again and Vic our driver, delivered us to the Kittling Ridge Wine Estate, where we had a guided tour of the winery. With lots of taste testing happing, the Christmas Spirit grew even more boisterous and fun. Needless to say the ride home from the Winery included very loud renditions’ of our take on Christmas Carols. Even though Vic didn’t partake in the Wine Tour he certainly joined in on the singing and what a voice he had too! I really can’t remember when I laughed so much and had such a wonderful day out with the girls.
