Cinco de Mayo

What is it?

It’s an excuse to have Mexican food! Yummos!

Actually Cinco de Mayo is Spanish for May 5th. And it’s a holiday in Mexico. A celebration held to commemorate the Mexican Army’s victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. It doesn’t mean much to us since we are not Mexican but we have Mexican friends and the date is written on the calendar and…like I said before it’s a reason to enjoy Mexican food. Tonight, it was fish tacos!

Adventure For Two

I am from Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Canada and I'm back from traveling with my husband on an expat assignment to foreign lands. 2011-2012 we were in Shenyang, China. Spring 2012- Spring 2013 we were in Resende,RJ Brazil then back to Shenyang, China in July 2013 until the end of July 2014. Expat life WAS amazing! Adventure abounds no matter where we travel to. We really enjoyed the amazing opportunity to live and experience culture and tradition in these places. BUT now we are finished and adjusting to life in our small town in Canada. Our days of travel and adventure are not over.
