My husband and I just came back from a trip out east yesterday (to Ontario and Quebec), and I thought I would share some photos.
The main reason for the trip was to take my parents to my Dad's 60th reunion from Military college, in Kingston-
Marching came right back. |
It was lovely to see the young students in their red serge uniforms. |
We also visited relatives and saw some sights.
Our first stop was Brockville, Ontario. At one time it had the largest concentration of millionaires in Canada.
This is Fulford Place, and at the time of construction (1901) was the largest private home in Canada.
Also in Brockville was an amazing Railway Tunnel (this was Canada's first railway tunnel, built between 1854 and 1860).
It had an amazing light display, and was a real gem to visit.
Here is a link for a short YouTube video about the tunnel (near the 3 minute mark shows the coolest part about the tunnel with a 'train').
We also had a visit to Upper Canada Village (representing 1860's Canada).

In Gatineau, Quebec we visited Mosaïculture - large sculptures made up of over 5.5 million plants.
People working everywhere. |

The leaves were just starting to turn colour |
All the best! ♥︎
