We aren’t taking holidays this summer but have instead opted to enjoy daytrips. With a little imagination and a very small budget we’re able to explore local destinations and still get out of the everyday mundane.   I like to think of them as day-cations – little escapes without the big ticket price and I get to sleep in my own bed at night. 

We might just be sitting on the shore of Lake Ontario today but in my mind I’m feeling ocean breezes, lying on a white sandy beach with the scent of saltwater in the air. All I’m missing is the Pina Colada
