Love is in the air ...
Ok so it is a few days past February 14th, the infamous LOVE DAY we have all come to know as Valentine's day, and I find myself pondering if in fact it is too late for us to be writing about a day that has already come and gone .. but has it really? Perhaps on a calendar yes but not in the hearts of us two crazy love beings! I pose this question to all of you "love-hearted" ones reading our blog and truly wonder if there are at least a few of you out there that share the very

Random Acts of Kindness
Lunenburg comes to mind when I think of kindness because it is filled with warm-hearted people and breathtaking scenery. This is where I have discovered that “Random acts of kindness” become part of a daily routine. For people who are reading this from far away, it is hard to understand the culture of Lunenburg without experiencing it. This quaint and friendly town is filled with historic charm and becomes the perfect travel destination if you are looking to engage with a com

One step closer...
Who would have thought about all of the decisions it takes to open a successful bed and breakfast? Here we have it, two family members working as a team to figure out the ropes before our grand opening in May. It seems that the roads are endless when it comes to making concrete decisions because our goal is for our guests to fall in love with their eastern experience.

Take the long way home...
So it's true, we had really signed up to do this, with our own free will I might add! It's the night before we pack up the car to hit the road and you know what we are talking about ... can the two of us (Cathy & Kelly) be able to drive half way across the country without anyone else but ourselves and manage to enjoy the experience, for realsies and not just a temporary attempt to put up with each others' nuisances and idiosyncrasies? Not only is this a concern, considering

Let the truth be told...
"Third times a charm" as the saying goes, so here it is… Welcome to blogpost number three. We feel it's time to explain where the name "Toba's" originates from. Starting off with a little background, I was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba and I sought out for adventure at 17 years old. From this point forward I knew I wanted to explore our beautiful country and so I figured the best way to do this was through the process of getting an education where I could also continu

Good Vibes comin' your way
Hello everyone and welcome! Let me first begin by introducing ourselves to you - I'm Cathy (the mamma) standing alongside, very proudly I might add, our daughter Kelly. Not shown here in this picture is Tony (the husband and very proud dad as well) who has chosen to let the girls of the house do their thing.
