A Talk to Remember

Before we get this show on the road, we have something we would like to establish, if we can remember all of it: there are few monumental events in your life that you will always remember. Your first day at school. Your first boy/girlfriend. Your graduation. The 5th of November. Denzel Washington would like us to make sure you remember forever the night you played the Titans (Fun fact: this line was actually said by Will Patton. But do you know who he is? We didn’t think so). And finally, the most obvious and life-altering of all, this blog.

Remember that time the Kite and Ice Cream Festival was supposed to be June 6th and then it rained and they made it be July 11th? Yes, we do too. And we were there. There were also, not surprisingly, kites, ice cream, and children having a very lovely time…with their kites and ice cream. Though eating ice cream while flying a kite proved to be very difficult for them. Not for us though. We like to multi-task like children like kites and ice cream. Remember that.

Moving on. Remember that time Kat and Natalie made the epic trip to Wasaga in search of visitor guides and a tan? Well, they succeeded in one of those things! Check out this documentation for proof (photo credit to Luisa).


Remember that time Celebrate the Brant Inn happened tonight and A Taste of Burlington started Monday July 19th? Well if you do, you’re lying, because neither event has happened yet. That or you have invented a time machine. One is more plausible than the other, but we’re not going to insult your intellectual capacity.

Remember that time we promised we’d give a shout out to the first five new followers of our blog? That time is NOW. So in no particular order, we would like to thank Alaina, who recently returned from Hong Kong, just to join the blog; Liana, who has requested a Tourism Burlington Coupon Book; Luisa, who is Tourism Burlington’s foreign correspondent who documented the Wasaga excursion; Janie, who hails all the way from Toronto; and Kyle, who probably became a follower out of obligation, but we’ll still take it.

We would also like to inform all of our followers that, yes, we remembered our other promise: the video blog is on the horizon. We have not forgotten about this. Natalie is in the editing and perfecting stage.

Remember that time the blog was over and you were sad?

K&A.
