Cox Smart Home at Canopy at Esencia

Did you know that the average household connects six devices to the internet these days? We are talking phones, laptops, tablets, gaming systems, etc. and that number is expected to increase to 50, yes 50, devices by the year 2022.

I don’t  know about you, but my Wi-Fi can be S-L-O-W at times and it drives me crazy. Lots of spinning rainbow wheels and error pages on dropped web searches. Lagging Wi-Fi can also result in a very irritated 5th grader when it inhibits her from posting one of her fabulous videos on Musical.ly.

With the need for internet connection and speed increasing and our tolerance for slow connection decreasing, Cox Communications and Warmington Residential are paving the way to the future of digital living at one of Orange County’s new master planned communities, Canopy at Esencia in Rancho Mission Viejo with gigabit-internet speed.

It’s the future people.  And it’s here.

If any of you drive along the 405 and 133 intersection, you can’t miss the Big White Top under construction for the last month.

Every time we drive by, my boys are fascinated with “what they are building?!” When the signs went up, we were thrilled to see it was Odysseo by Cavalia! For those of you not familiar, this show is known as the world’s largest traveling production with a cast of 65 horses, trainers, musicians and acrobats that produce one TRULY magical experience.

KURIOS Comes to So Cal

[Complimentary Press Tickets Provided]

Back in the late 90’s when I was fresh out of college and working my first full-time big girl job, a trade show took me to the city of  Montreal where a client invited our group to see a Cirque du Soleil performance.  While we were waiting to go in, my boss asked me if I had ever seen a Cirque show before. I hadn’t.

His response,

“You will never forget your first Cirque du Soleil.”

I haven’t.

Simply because nothing on earth quite compares to the magic made on stage at a Cirque du Soleil.  If you have never been before, please, please put it on your list of “must experience” things in this lifetime…..
