If you live in rural Canada, you probably know just how tough it can be to get any internet – let alone a signal strong enough to make it through an entire binge-watching session. There is, however, an option for high-speed internet: Xplornet. They can get you download speeds of up to 25 Mbps in some parts of Canada and have a bunch of different internet packages to choose from. … [Read more...] about Cutting the Cord

Trip Notes: Our SoCal Quasi-Mileage Run…
-We were upgraded on the flight from Newark to Houston. The aircraft was a 777-200, the same airplane that Continental flies on international routes, like from Newark to Tel Aviv. It was my first time being in the BusinessFirst section of that aircraft since Continental switched from their old style BusinessFirst seats to the new lie-flat seats. It was a pleasure to be able to make the seat into a bed with the touch a button. There is even a USB plug to charge an iPod for example and a regular 3-prong style plug as well. I did notice that the cutout where your feet go when the seat is made into a bed varied greatly between seats. While some seats had huge footwell cutouts, others had significantly smaller footwells. Bulkheads seemed to have the biggest footwell cutouts. Each seat has a large LCD with hundreds and hundreds of free movies and TV shows to watch. You can even control your iPod from the screen.

DansMeals: Hawaii For The Kosher Traveler. Part 3: Maui
When we were in Maui last time with Rafi we took a sunset picture session on the beach with Wailea Photography. The pictures were stunning and many hang in our house today. If you mention DansDeals then you’ll also save $50 off the prices listed on the site. This isn’t a paid ad, I just really loved the pictures we got. We’ve taken photo shoots in Buenos Aires and Banff as well and I find that taking a photo shoot from a vacation spot is far better than any other silly souvenir from the trip. … [Read more...] about DansMeals: Hawaii For The Kosher Traveler.
