Travel Swellness: 4 great outdoor pools in Toronto

How you handling this week’s heat wave in Toronto?

Did you know the city’s public pools are open late during the heat wave? This is pretty much one of the few reasons I’d go to one. For this and to swim laps during adult swim hour.

But to hang out and enjoy some pool time? Not so much.

If I want to treat myself to a day of R&R by a pool with friends, I’m partial to having a chaise longue…and cocktails…and tasty bites. Does that make me a princess? Say it ain’t so!

Well, so be it. Me and my princess self set out on a mission to check out some great outdoor pools you can buy day passes to in the city. Check out the top Toronto pools roundup over at Travel + Escape.

C’mon, aren’t these Tojitos (Toronto + mojitos, get it?) at Cabana Pool Bar looking mighty fine?

Travel Swellness: Top hotel toiletries

Don’t tell me you don’t take hotel toiletries. Doesn’t everyone? These pretty ones from Etro I pilfered from a recent stay at the new Four Seasons in Toronto. I can’t comment on how good the actual products are just yet, though, as they were too pretty to break open (I instead used the toiletries I’d packed in my overnight bag).

What else do I have in my hotel toiletries hoard? Check out my faves in my post on Travel + Escape!
