Well, our fellow tiki bum Jeff "Beachbum" Berry to the rescue and this drink has a very unique garnish that will leave you waiting for spring to get here!We ask our tiki expert what bars he has enjoyed and some of his favorites he has been to. The drinks that made his head spin and just how did he get into tiki? Was it for the same reason as Craig..hmm..find out!!On the "Traveler's Tips" segment with Norma, we talk about the things you should have in your carry-on luggage that will help you to better travels or even survive the disaster flight.

March 12, 2019Episode 25: Chill Out from Curacao (guests Mike and Dan)Hey guys, this is part two of my journey to Curacao and another amazing drink we found at the Sunscape Resort near Willemstad, Curaçao. Sunscape resort site: http://www.sunscaperesorts.com/ Where is Curacao you may ask? Well listen to find out! This great tropical drink called the "Chill Out" will definitely chill you out if you are having a bad day. With great combinations of coconut rum, melon liqueur, vodka and some OJ; you will soon be thinking what stress?? We go into some more cool facts about Curacao such as: 1) Floating bridge: this bridge is the only one in the world that operates this way which is that it actually moves across the channel to let ships pass but to return for locals so they can get from west side of the island to the east side of the island. Here is a link of the video taken by a travel company of this amazing bridge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZks49_PPak 2) Floating market from Venezuela: these Venezuelan farmers actually travel each day to Curacao's Willemstad to sell their fresh fruits and vegetables to the locals and tourists. Here is a video link to this fresh thought: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hffwSOPo5U8 3) Oldest Synagogue in the world: Yes, this Jewish historical site is over 400 years old and the floor is actually sand. Here is a link to a site for that: http://www.snoa.com/ 4) Home of a famous statue the "ChiChi": this great art statue has a lot of history to it on this island and the world so check it out: (Video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmjoSOJZCQw and the site for them which also shows ChiChi's from around the world: https://chichi-curacao.com/ In the "Traveler's tips" with Norma: we talk about photocopying your passport so if systems down, guess what; you are not! Also, how do you pack and when: here is what not to do by Sebastian Maniscalco's video (and yes it's a good laugh): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXZMlEy7fb4 Contest winner for February was Heidi Pawluk.

And guess what a new Co-host (for now while Cam is out) Paula Vetori who works on Brockville local radio. Give her a listen on the new episode!!...more30minPlay
