Coincidentally enough I was there today......small world eh?I was just wondering if any of you here has visited Canada.
What part? And was it for vacation or otherwise?Coincidentally enough I was there today......small world eh?
That's awesome! I did some of that trip with my parents when I was a kid. We camped at Jasper and visited the Columbia ice field. I hope to see the Rockies again sometime. They are absolutely breathtaking!When I retired, about 20 years ago. we closed up the house and headed North into Canada. We entered Canada at the Lake of the Woods/Kenora, Ontario, and headed West. We had no itinerary, and just drove, and stopped as we saw things of interest. Within a few days, we wound up in Edmonton, and spent some time there and in Jasper. That huge West Edmonton Mall shopping center was quite fun to wander around in for a day. Then, we went out on the glacier at the Columbia ice field. There is a triangle from Jasper to Kamloops to Calgary that has some of the best mountain scenery in North America. We reentered the US at the Glacier Natl. Park in Montana, and eventually worked our way back to Missouri, after nearly a month. This was the nicest trip we ever took, and it helped transition from working...to full retirement.
Gorgeous city, yes! I was there many moons ago, in 1980. Fond memories.Vacationed in Victoria several times.
I liked everything about it.
A lot.
Yes, I grew up in Denver, and like the mountains. The Canadian Rockies aren't as high as those in Colorado, but they are "newer" and have spectacular sheer cliffs. That, plus several close encounters with Elk and Mountain Goats, made for a real nice trip.That's awesome! I did some of that trip with my parents when I was a kid.

Love to hear this! I've had limited visits to the states. Vermont in the fall for my honeymoon (spectacular!), upper New York States (awesome), San Diego (beautiful city) and Hollywood (Universal Studios).Yes, several times, Toronto, Montreal, Edmonton, Calgary driving from there to Banff and Jasper through the park, and recently a fishing trip to Vancouver Island. Not to mention a few short back and forths across the border.
I like it! Canada is a great place to visit, I'll be back.
Yes! Niagara On The Lake is also one of my favourite towns! Been there too many times to count, as I live only a couple of hours away!Yes. Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Calgary. I love Canada. My favorite (or favourite) visit was during a conference at Niagara On The Lake. Absolutely beautiful resort town.
Our East Coast is also incredible...quaint fishing villages, historic cities, lots to explore!British Columbia, Yukon, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, a number of fishing trips in Ontario and the Quetico Canoe Area, and Quebec. I love Canada. British Columbia is my favorite. I'm a sailor and also a mountain person. I'm also drawn to almost anywhere in the west half of North America.
