Oh, Canadia | Photos & Haul

Hello everyone! Last weekend I went on a little trip to Canada with some of my family in New York to go and visit some family I had there! I had met one part of my family living there once before because they came to visit but there was a whole slew of cousins I didn't know about until I started planning this trip. It was really great to visit and meet everyone and it was also really fun exploring Canada! Aside from the anxiety inducing flights, I had a really fun time! We went to the legislature building and it was so big that my sister, cousins and I actually got lost. My cousin also told me a little fun fact and that was that people celebrate 4/20 on the legislature lawn, completely legally. I don't know why that stuck with me, haha! We didn't do anything touristy so I got to just experience living in Canada. There was a new mall, plaza, or market to visit everyday. I did end up buying some things and filmed a haul video of the stuff I got so if you'd like to see it'll be at the bottom of this post! We spent a day at the lake tubing, and when the boat broke down in the middle of the lake we made some new friends who kindly pulled us to shore. I got to drive a truck in Canada which was terrifying because instead of mph it was kph and I thought I was speeding the whole time! Also, every summer there's a cultural festival called 'Folklrama' and we only got to see the one show, but it was awesome! OH & probably hands down the best part of my trip was getting to visit Tim Hortons. HOW CAN DOUGHNUTS BE THAT TASTY?! Haha, anyway, I thought I'd let you guys see some of the pictures of my trip. Most of them were family pictures because our parents wanted to document the 'meeting of the cousins' but I still got a few good ones to share :)

  2. Omg, that donut! I've never tried them before, since I haven't visited Canada yet, so I actually don't know how they taste like, but from the way that one looks, they must be amazing!
