Canada

Hello Lovelies!

This summer I was lucky enough to travel to the other side of the world to Canada. I spend three weeks in four different places; Toronto, Niagara, Ottawa and Kingston. It took me 8 hours to get there and 3 days to get over jet lag. 

The first place I went to was Toronto. I didn't expect it to look so much like New York! The buildings were so tall and it was extremely busy but I'm a 'city girl'. It's my dream to get out of a small quiet town and into a big city like Toronto. I also noticed a Starbucks on every street. However my favourite part of Toronto was shopping. Prices were so much cheaper than in the UK too. From the top of the CN tower you could see the whole of Toronto. 

The second place was Niagara. I loved the falls as it was so beautiful but the rest of Niagara was very touristy like there was so many strips of things like mini golf and haunted houses which really did spoil it. But when you did get down to the Falls it was something I'd never seen before plus it amazes me how you can see America on the other side. I got to go on the Maid Of The Mist and Journey Behind The Falls. 

I travelled by train from Niagara to Ottawa via train which took ages. It was worth it though as I got to meet and stay with family I hadn't met before in the capital city. We went to a water park, a lake in Quebec, shopping and me and my brother learned how to Canoe which we have never done before. I love how Canadians are so active compared to people here in the UK. Also their are so much wildlife and a squirrel stole my apple.

My last five days were spent in Kingston with other family members. It was so much fun meeting new people and doing new things like going on the back of a speed boat on a inflatable double chair with my cousin. She taught me 'Canadian slang' too which still makes no sense to me but oh well. I miss it so much though and the weather was extremely beautiful. It was lovely to unwind after stressful months of exams too. I hope you all enjoyed your summers too.
