Hmmm, well then...that throws recommendations out the window. Will look into Cayo Largo as well then.

Cayo Largo will most likely be more expensive but it's a really nice spot, if you're looking for less people/kids and a really chill spot then I highly recommend it. Can post pics or you can check out some pics I posted on facebook however long ago, there should be a few albums. I've met up with AMG SiR from on here twice down there, he was the one who recommended the place to me.
Only other tropical spots I've been to are Hawaii and Jamaica. And backpacked around central america long ago but that's different.
Are you only looking at Cuba? I do like Cuba personally, didn't care much for Jamaica.

Yeah. We love Cuba. This will be #5. We usually stay in Varadero, but are looking for something new. It's nice and no Americans.

I want to go back to Kauai in Jan/Feb next year. There's a flight deal from PEI to Kauai for $650 return but it's only for end of Nov/start of December, which is stupid cheap.
Hoping in a few months similar prices are available for when we want to go.

Confederation bridge bruhhhh
It's just 50 bucks to get off the island over it  
Should be free for residents imo but of course nothings free.
If you're going to Vic you can take a super fast boat/ferry that drops you off right in Vic harbour. Otherwise there's the actual ferry which you want to reserve in advance if you can, if you're taking a vehicle anyway, otherwise there's the walk on which is pretty cheap but will need a ride once you get off.

yeah if you're coming from Vic it's the only way, runs 18 bucks per person for walk on ticket cost and the ride is about 1.5 hours, an hour 45 at the most. Otherwise you'd have to go up to Nanaimo and catch a ferry there but that's a bit of a drive.
Or there's the new V2V ride on the empress which takes you from downtown vic to vancouver but it's pricier starting at $129 a person and takes like 3.5 hours. google it for more details, V2V empress is the boat.
Not sure about how to get to downtown Van from there as I haven't had to deal with that without having a car.

My buddy says you have to take a bus then a train to get from ferry to airport or downtown van. Takes an hour or more.

After 3 years, my old condo has finally sold. Huge loss, but there are no fucks given. Best $80k I'll ever spend. We would have lost more than that in the time it would take to pay it off. I've never felt so emotionally relieved and drained at the same time.

Yeah. The condo market is brutal. When we re-upped the sale contract there were over 1500 condos for sale in Edmonton. It's been a great few days. I can't stop smiling.

Werd. I was in Fairmont for a wedding all weekend. It feels like I smoked 10 packs of smokes. I can't imagine how everyone that lives there feels.

Yeah I've been locking myself in my office...
She's nice but 10 days is too long, hard to juggle entertaining someone while you have to work and find things to do for a 75 year old.
