Beer is proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy. Not my words- the words of Benjamin Franklin. I think hot wings fall in to the same category. Root beer does not. So why am I starting here? Well we have now just left Milwaukee- billed as a city built on beer. And beer, hot wings, and root beer, pretty much sums up our time there. Personally, I wasn't overly taken with the place. But before we get to that, I think last time I blogged, we were looking at ...

Hello y'all! Another quick update- photos coming today too- So after posting on the blog the other day, we went to go out and get something to eat, and guess what- yep, it was snowing!!! I am now 100% convinced the snow is following us around!! Luckily, it only snowed for the one evening, so wasnt too bad after that. However, Chicago is officially the coldest place ever. fact. We thought Toronto was cold, but Chicago is something else! The wind is freezing cold, ...

Never fear, we are still alive and well!! Its been a while since a blog update, Cant remember where you left us last, think we were about to check into Hotel 17??!

The USA side is very picturesque, with parks and greenery. The Canadian side is weird though, really tacky and touristy- Lisa...

Ok,so first things first, those of you who think the third day is too soon to be updating our travel blog (I would normally agree!), we are currently on a 10hr, (yes TEN hour!) bus journey from New York to Toronto, and there isn't a lot else to do. So it seemed a good time to update everyone on how it's going so far!! So day 1 and off we go- or rather nearly don't!!!- For those of you who don't already know, we woke up on Monday, the day we were due to fly, to B...
