And we’ll be heading here

7 glorious nights at the Excellence Playa Mujeres,  an uber 5-star, adults-only,  all-inclusive resort north of Cancun… OH YEAH!!

Aside from this little issue I have with flying, I’m totally pumped! :D

We’ll be spending Newyears Eve on a beach sippin’ margaritas.

Can’t wait!!

YES!

posted by Michelle

No, not the election again.  We actually saw YES in concert tonight, at Hamilton Place.  GREAT, great show.

Ok, they’re a little geriatric, but these guys can really play.  They put on a phenomenal show.  I only wish I could have seen them in their prime.. but I was like, 4 :D

This was part 2 of my husband’s birthday present.  We saw The Who a couple weeks earlier.  These are 2 of his all-time favourite bands. Especially Yes, and I managed to get 2nd row from the stage seats.  He was psyched!

Chris Squire doing an amazing solo:

And Steve Howe treated us to a solo.  It was spectacular!

Jon Anderson is not part of the tour due to respiratory problems, but in his place is a Canadian dude named Benoit David. I thought he did a very good job!

In all, it was a good night!
