Week 21

I've been wanting to go paintballing since high school and I was reminded of my interest in the game when my coworker, Marion, asked me to join a group from work to play. I've been planning to go with them for a while now; I finally was able to go last Sunday. We went to Paintball USA at the Oxnard location where the weather was cooler and I could layer my clothes to pad myself. I can't deny that I was a little scared of being sore, but once we got out on the field a few times, and I eventually felt how it was to be hit, I got a bit braver and enjoyed myself more.


We played a few games with over zealous strangers (I have a nasty bruise on my arm from being shot short distance.) until more from our group showed up. Then it became a Northridge Hospital vs West Hills game which was safer.

I have to say that I had a pretty good time. If I join Marion and the group again, I definitely need to invest in more padded clothing!

Spring Training

My little family went on vacation this past weekend. Nacho visited his friends at Petsmart and Niner and I went to our third Spring Training in Phoenix. Our first game on Saturday was against the Indians at Goodyear Ballpark. There was a lot of action near the end when the Indians caught up and tied the game. There was a Mister Softee soft serve truck and Niner tried a Guinness Blondie at the beer cart. That is a nice ballpark and we had a cute time. I even got Ethier's autograph on our Cactus League ball.    We had time for a nice hike and dinner after the game. Niner introduced me to Native American fry bread which was delicious. Sunday we started off with a nice brunch at Province downtown. The game was at the Dodgers' (and white Sox) Camelback Ranch. It was a hot, sunny day, but fun nevertheless. It was lovely to get away for the weekend and we did so much! Can't wait for baseball season to start! We got a mini season plan t...

La Banquise, Montreal

La Banquise Rating: 💜💜💜 📍994 Rue Rachel E Montréal, QC H2J 2J3 Canada 📞  (514) 525-2415 Visit: May 6, 2018 Poutine is pretty much anywhere and everywhere in Montreal. Sometimes when you have too many options, it becomes difficult to make decisions (at least that's how it works with me). We chose this place because of the amount of reviews on Yelp.. and it was only A-OK. However, that may be our fault for ordering the "plainer" option. The grand size of "Taquise" seemed like the perfect choice for us. It was topped with tomatoes, guacamole, and sour cream. We probably should have ordered something with lots of meat and gravy, something packed with flavor. But then, I can also argue that anything with guacamole should be amazing. So I give this place a 3/5 rating, but it is worth going back to, especially since they're open 24/7! Make sure you use your google translate and get in the correct line: dine in or take out. There's a line of peop...
