A Niagara Winery at Sunset
It was nearing the end of our day as we sampled the various ice wines of the Niagara Winery, Jackson-Triggs. The ice wine festival is going on right now and it is an amazing opportunity to embrace the cold and enjoy the unique wines that are created during the bone chilling freeze of winter.
Snowshoeing a Niagara Winery
People are always looking for unique ways to enjoy a wine tasting. We’ve heard of horseback riding from winery to winery, cycling between vineyards, hiring a private bus or limo, or running a marathon between wineries like Marathon Du Medoc in France where athletes taste wine during the 42 km event. However, this is the [...]
The Fairmont Royal York, Toronto’s Grand Dame
I remember coming into Toronto for baseball games as a kid and looking out from the Gardiner Expressway towards famous Royal York Hotel. I imagined what celebrities were staying at the most elegant building in the city. The Queen herself has stayed at the Royal York along with The Dalai Llama, Various world leaders, Playboy playmates and rock legends!

Beautiful Canada a Land of Four Seasons
Canada is great for photography throughout all of the seasons. Summer, winter, spring or fall in Canada will not disappoint. From Banff, Alberta to Algonquin Park, Ontario these HDR photos show the beauty that you will discover the next time you are there.
Wildlife of the World; A Photo Story
When people think of adventure travel they don’t really think of Wildlife photography. But being a big fan of any type of photography I like to push my limits. Photographing wildlife is a challenge as anyone can tell you. From birds in your back yard to the Big 5 in Africa they all require different skills.
Wildlife Wednesday; The Wolves of Haliburton Forest
About 3 hours north of Toronto way up in Central Ontario is one of our favorite places in the Province. Haliburton forest is a nature lovers dream. A place for hiking, mountain biking and canoeing in the summer and cross country skiing and dog sledding in the winter. But it is the Haliburton Forest Wild Life and Reserve that has kept us coming back.
Strange, Funny and Odd Names of Towns in Canada
When I started writing this post, I was going to write about funny cities and towns that I have visited in my travels, but then I realized that they have nothing on Canada. Maybe it is all of our time spent indoors during the winter, but we have come up with some pretty strange names for our cities and towns.
Here is a list of ridiculous, funny and strangely named cities and towns from my home country, Canada. If you know of any from any part of the planet that has some funny names let me know.
Spring is in the Air, After a Cold Canadian Winter
As spring fast approaches and the snow quickly melts, a new fire is ignited in all and plans are being made. There is something about life in Canada, that makes you feel that you have a chance to start over with each new season. Correct mistakes, take up a new workout routine, pull out your favourite clothes from seasons past and make new goals in life. It is like a re-birth.
