After a very nice and smooth flight we landed in Toronto. Happy that our luggage was also there! But after all we did not start our journey in London!!  

I was in the middle of my semester of graduate school and had no time to tavel, however, I had/have the travel bug bad! So, I decided that a quick weekend trip to Canada with my friend would be the perfect medicine.

I traveled to the Acadian (french influenced)land of Nova Scotia, Canada, a remarkably scenic place where the mountains meet the sea... My time was consumed with whale watching and photographing the beauty around me.

I love you Whistler!

International Flora - The Montréal Garden Festival is a showcase for new ideas and new garden passions for all to see. And take pictures, of course :)

Wow! What an incredible place! Like a little swiss town tucked away in the Canadian Rockies. Banff is listed in the book "1000 places to see before you die!"

At one point I was under a very limited assumption that I was alone, that I was different, that most people just did not understand. Then I found this website and thousands of others that will not only understand but more than likely have participated in one of my fav summer pastimes. BBQ's and dri…

Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Whistler, Prince George, Mount Robson, Patricia Lake, Jasper, Icefields Parkway, Banff

I went for a conference in Vancouver in summer 2007. So I stayed there for some days and then travelled to Edmonton and Calgary as well.

I was ill & wheatgrass kept me going (thanks to jug o juice). Beautiful scenery, shame about all the property development and industry. Up in the mountains away from the sprawl it is stunning, the mountains are breathtaking and the wildlife is incredible. Must also say, breakfasts were New York style and therefore obviously scrummy delicious feasts. Hotel - Le Soleil was fantastic, beautiful suites at affordable prices, highly recommended.

Day 6 and final day of my Alberta Adventure.I get up this morning and it is m last day in this nice area of Canada. I decide I want to see more of the Kananskis Park and more of the mountains.I head off in the car and fuel up again at the gas station with the weird cashier man. I leave Calgary off …

A 25 hour train trip to Seattle, Washington. The Pacific NorthWest is so lush and beautiful, amazingly it only drizzled once the entire week...and that was at the end of our day trip to Victoria, Canada. Lots of good food there, had Thai one night and Ethiopian food the next. Some really great bubble tea too!!

Niagara Falls

after a cold night we checked out around 9am (the staff was very friendly, we could leave our lagguage in a special room and the car on the parkin lot) and took the people mover to visit General Motors and the baseballstadium (home of the lions) . it was ok, but all of us 3 felt not very comfo…
