Oh Canada
So here I am playing a little catch up so thank you for hanging in there. This fall when the weather was still amazing we decided to take a family trip to Canada. We flew into Boston and rented a car to start our little journey up north wandering through New England on our way to Canada. The leaves in the fall are my absolute favorite. It was so breathtaking!
Since we wanted to spend most of our time in Canada we decided to skip the day in Boston and start our journey to Quebec driving through the back roads of Vermont. This was the first time I had ever been through Vermont, and let me tell you it is so beautiful and quaint. I loved the amazing scenery through the quiet streets with the historical houses that lined the water front. It rained for an hour or so when we started our drive but quickly turned into a small mist leaving a perfect foggy backdrop. It was stunning. We only planned on driving through but couldn't help but stop a few times and enjoy the atmosphere. We loved it so much we immediately decided we had to drive back through on our way back.
We made it to Canada and it was even more stunning then I could have imagined. It has cobblestone streets filled with beautiful Architecture from churches to every little restaurant and cottage home. All the locals speak French but thankfully most knew English as well. The boys loved listening to the language and laughed bashfully because they couldn't understand them.
We wandered through the city hitting up farmers markets, street art fairs, listened to local bands, and walked through little shops along the cobble stone streets. The whole city was so festive, filled with decorative balls and little pumpkins that sat on the steps of stores that looked like cottages.
One afternoon we took a shuttle up to a waterfall that overlooked the colorful trees with the horizon of the historic city in the background. It was so beautiful. The whole experience was just breathtaking. We loved our whole time in Canada and plan on going back very soon.
Below are some of our favorite photos from all of our little stops along the way including Vermont, Lake Winnipesaukee New Hampshire, and all the beautiful places in Canada. Hope you enjoy!!
Thats a wrap on our little journey to Quebec, Canada. If you are ever considering taking this trip, you should do it! Its amazing and you won't regret it.
