I am so jealous of my parent.

They are so lucky that they have almost been to all of Canada in the past couple of years. They have been to 8 out of 10 provinces and 1 out of 3 territories in Canada. Not many native Canadians can say the same.

My parents have very specific goals about each trip and they plan systematically to see most of Canada before she goes on to explore the rest of the world since they reside here for now. About 2 or 3 years ago, they went to Yukon territory (close to Alaska) to see Northen light. It was freezing cold and they stayed at this cabinet where in the middle of the night, if you want to use the washroom, you have to go outside walk on the snow to a outhouse to pee. Very adventurous. Then with my grandpa visiting, they saw most of Ontario and Quebec out east. Last year, during my mom’s school year break, she and my dad went to Prince Edward Island (which is also a province) to see the house of Anne of Green gable (清秀佳人) and the rest of the maritimes provinces. My mom had the most unforgetable taste of fresh and cheap lobsters for many meals that she wants to go back just for that.

This summer they planned a trip to Alberta province in an effort to see Loons, which is the bird that’s carved into every of our two dollar coins. And now, they just got back from Toronto from a visit to Algonquin park. The park is famous for it’s grand amount of maple trees . So as you can imagine, when the fall comes, the turning colors of leaves full of the mountains reflecing under the sunshine and onto the water make quite a magnifient scene as you can see on the photos. Guess that’s why on the Canadian flags, there is a maple leaf proudly representing the nation.

Well, now that they are planning to go to the last of the two provinces yet to be visited, Mannitoba. Churchill city, in this province, is famous for its polar bears spotting. Hopefully, I can make time to tag along this time to tell the tale.
