We're back from our month at Ontario Pioneer Camp!
Another awesome year of the LIT program and I already can't
wait for next year. This is our trip group "team merve"! What's trip group? you might ask... it means that we survived out in the wilderness together canoe tripping!

Back Row: Chris, Matt, Jill, Christine, Alison, Dave, Emma, Justin

And of course... "The OPC boys"! Who knew we had celebs!?

The much anticipated Mayan Riviera Honeymoon pictures are here!
We spent our time soaking up the sun at the Aventura Spa Palace Resort on the Coast; Snorkelling, tanning, swimming, hiking, eating gourmet meals, and relaxing tons.. in the huge hot tub in our suite! Here are just a few pics of the adventure


The resort had not just "a" pool...it had many! They were connected making it almost like rivers that you could use to swim across the property...which was huge!(so big that there were shuttles to get you from one end to the other) Along side the gorgeous pools was a winding lagoon for kayaking and snorkelling. It was protected by the rocky shore making it a haven of calm shallow water full of amazing fish! The beautiful water didn't end there... water falls and winding rivers dotted the property through jungle like parks!




These "beds" were scattered all over the resort! The perfect napping spot.

Instead of the little "in case of emergency, break glass"... our resort had this!

This is the view from our sweet suite! Not only did our room have huge windows, but it had sliding glass doors leading to a balcony complete with chairs and a hammock!

Although our resort was like a city on its own, boasting enough resaurants that we didn't even get to all of them, we did venture out to explore. We spent one day out sailing on a catamaran and snorkelling the second largest reef in the world. Then we went on two different excursions to Mayan Ruins:Chichen Itza and Tulum.
