5.) The Yukon- This territory is filled with magic. I went with my family when I was 11 years old. We got to go gold panning, admire the wildlife (bears, sheep, and moose) and experience the midnight sun. It doesn't get dark in the Yukon in the summer. It is a really cool thing to see!
4.) Calgary, Alberta- We love this city! There are so many great things about it, but my favourite place to go in Calgary is the Calgary Zoo. I LOVE visiting the penguins, gorillas, giraffes, and hippos. Miss. E loves the meerkats! The city has great food, shopping and beautiful parks!
3.) Banff, Alberta- We go to Banff almost yearly. It is a beautiful town nestled in Banff National Park. The mountains are breathtaking! We like to do mountain hikes, go skiing, enjoy the great restaurants, and shop! It is such an amazing place to visit!
4.) Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island- We visited Prince Edward Island when I was 10. It was absolutely enchanting. My Mom had read the Anne of Green Gables books to me when I was little and I was enthralled. We dragged my Dad and brother to every Lucy Maud Montgomery historical site on the island, including Green Gables itself! (The author based her books on an actual house). We saw the Enchanted Forest and strolled down Lover's Lane. I loved every minute of it! The Island also boasts beautiful red soil, delicious seafood (lobster, anyone?), and awesome historical sights.
5.) Manitou Lake- This place doesn't have a link because it is a small, alkaline lake in Saskatchewan. You can't fish in the lake (nothing lives there except the Manitou Monster) and there has been little for development in the park. My parents grew up in neighbouring towns and they put a cabin at the lake when we were kids. We used to go all the time! It is my happy place, the place where I can always find calm. My parents have fixed up the cabin and we love to take Miss. E out there. It is my favourite place in the world.

I would love to visit Canada someday - and all those places sound like awesome spots to visit! One of my favorite Janette Oke series, "When Calls The Heart" is based in Canada and I love how she describes the scenery there. Alberta is definitely on my bucket list!
ReplyDeleteHappy Canada Day (a day late!)
