A Spa For You

Reviewed By BoardingPass568284

This is a surprising find, tucked away as it is behind Tontu apparel/café where you might later choose to linger over a coffee, although there are separate entrances at side and rear. But once you enter the spa there is the illusion of entering a different world, the décor all drapes and wall paintings reminiscent of Bohemian Amsterdam. Erica was most attentive and gave us fascinating thick tomes to read as we experienced our foot detoxes. The treatment rooms are like tented pavilions and we most definitely recommend you stop off at the spa and experience the treats it has to offer first hand.

The Blue Point Amethyst Mine

Reviewed By Nerm58 - Calgary, Canada

I spent 3 hours at this mine and wish I'd spent more time there. ALL the praise for this mine is true. The many types of beautiful amethyst here are fairly easy to find and don't require much washing. There are also lots of great, professionally cleaned samples for sale at reasonable prices. The owner is a very accomodating, generous, and likeable gentleman. I highly recommend this experience to people of all ages.

Mission Island Marsh Conservation Area

Reviewed By mskittyOntario

We go over to Mission island once in awhile to view the deer, the birds and walk along the paths on a quiet eve. A real gem in the middle of this city. We often take visitors to this site and they really enjoy it as well.
