Told you these would be all out of order. I went to the Botanical Garden on Sunday, which I soon realized after arriving was a mistake because the line to get in was insanely long and by the time I reached the front, the garden would've closed. So instead of waiting in that crazy long … Continue reading Montreal Day 6: Botanical Garden
Montreal Day 5: Biosphere
I went back to that bagel place from Day 1. This time I came later, around lunchtime, and while they were still busy, there wasn't a line and I was seated right away. I got pretty much the same thing, except with a salad this time. I think it was the crab salad, although I … Continue reading Montreal Day 5: Biosphere
Montreal Day 4: Patisserie and History
Day 4 started, as is becoming a pattern, with food. I went to a cute patisserie called Maison Christian Faure and got their "Lunch Royal" which included a coffee or tea, the plat du jour, and a pastry. It was delicious, although a few of my table neighbours went for the salmon and I kind … Continue reading Montreal Day 4: Patisserie and History
Montreal Day 3: Art, Good and Bad
I think we all know by now that I kind of love art museums. I lost count of how many I went to in Paris and my friend practically had to drag me out of one in Chester when, after two hours, I'd only seen the first two of five floors. One of the reasons … Continue reading Montreal Day 3: Art, Good and Bad
Montreal Day 2: Barbie Expo
I set off about an hour later than I did on day one, due to yesterday's post going up kind of...late? Early? Both? Anyway, I didn't have breakfast and reached Centre Ville around lunchtime, so I went to the second of three places I knew I wanted to eat at. I went to the bagel … Continue reading Montreal Day 2: Barbie Expo
Montreal Day 1: Bagels and Murals
OK so I've got pictures on my camera of my recent adventures BUT I forgot the little cord that gets pictures from my camera to my laptop. So here are the pictures I took on my phone instead. MONTREAL, I AM IN YOU! This wasn't today and I'm not posting the days in order because … Continue reading Montreal Day 1: Bagels and Murals
Missing Winch
A strange and familiar feeling is hitting me. It's homesickness, and the reason it's strange is because technically, I am home. I suppose this is what happens when you have more than one home. When you stay in one for too long, inevitably you begin to miss the other. Unfortunately, my other home, England, is … Continue reading Missing Winch
Living in a Banff Castle
I went to Banff this past weekend with my dad, my brother, my aunt, and my grandma. We didn't see much of the town and we didn't explore much of the mountains as per our usual activities when we're in town. We spent nearly the entirety of our three-day excursion in the Fairmont Banff Springs hotel … Continue reading Living in a Banff Castle
Post-Toronto
Our week in Toronto is over. In my last post I said coming to Toronto was like waking up. Well, leaving feels like dying...and going to hell. That sounds harsh, but trust me, I have a way with words and that happens to be the best way to describe my feelings right now. First, I was … Continue reading Post-Toronto
Toronto
Well, my sister and I have made it to Toronto (which you would know if you followed me on Snapchat at imiller27) and our first day was pretty chill. We got to the hotel at around dinnertime and after a quick trip around the block to check our food choices, we ended up at Tim … Continue reading Toronto
