During our week in Jamaica we’ve had the chance to do some pretty amazing things…like swimming with Dolphins, going up Dunn’s River Falls and much, much more.

On Tuesday we went to Mystic Mountain and took the Jamaican Bobsled for a ride down the hill and we also did some zip-lining.

Here’s Mike Allard’s first ever zip line encounter.

On Tuesday …we checked off another item from our “Bucket List” when we visited Jamaica’s newest tourist attraction called Mystic Mountain.
The facility which overlooks Ocho Rios features an incredible Rainforest Sky Explorer, the Zip line canopy tour and Bobsled Jamaican ride which was heart-stopping….to say the least.
So sit back and enjoy the ride.

Starting Monday Rich and I will be broadcasting live from Sandals Grande Ocho Rios Beach and Villa Resort in beautiful Jamaica.

It’s hard to believe this is our 7th trip to the Caribbean since 2004.  When our program director Mike Allard told us we were going to be doing our show from the Island ..we honestly thought he’s lost his mind.

We’re going to be joined by our winners Sandra and Roger Lauzon as well as Careyann Beckett and Tim Retty.  It’s their first trip to the Caribbean and Mike tells me they’re very excited.

If you’ve never been …or perhaps you have and would love to go back again…don’t forget to plug in those bonus codes each day and be listening Friday January 9th at 7:45 for your name.   If you hear it …call back within 10-minutes to win an all ultra-inclusive trip to any Sandals resort in Jamaica.

I can guarantee you ..it’ll be a trip you’ll never, ever forget.

Until Monday

Yah Mon!!!

Top of the list at our place has to be “A Charlie Brown Chrismas“. Charlie, Lucy, Linus, Snoopy and the rest get our attention every year.

The Grinch, Mr. Bean’s Christmas,(the 1st Christmas Special my wife and I ever watched together…’Have ya got the turkey on?!’), A Christmas Story, It’s A Wonderful Life, Miracle On 34th Street…..are all great choices. And how could we forget Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer and The Year Without A Santa Claus?? The Snow Miser has been busy this year. En-Joy!

Have ya got a favourite Christmas special? Let us know. Just click on comments.

As for the worst of the holiday specials, this one tops the list. I dare you to watch the ‘Star Wars Holiday Special’ from start to finish. Art Carney and Bea Arthur are part of this thing. (Yes…Really!) Harrison Ford is there too! (Old Hans Solo was hard up for cash in 1978 it seems.)Who knew that the Star Wars theme had lyrics or that Carrie Fisher could sing? This is truly embarrassing.

Who says Canadians aren’t passionate about their politics?

We kicked over a hornet’s nest this morning when we asked about a possible coalition government in Ottawa.

The story has taken on a number of different twists and turns already with more to come over the next few days.

What do you think?  Leave your comments on a coalition government below.
