Radisson Hotel Kitchener Waterloo

... mumbling, I couldn’t understand a word. Every downtown building early 1900’s and is architecturally stunning. There are numerous parks along the Avon River but the most scenic is the Shakespeare Gardens with glorious and vivid floral colors (of burnished gold, russet & crimson), lawns, sculptures and stately oaks. It won a 'worldwide’ Nations in Bloom competition. On a humorous note, a sign entering ...

I want to tell you about these great Niagara Falls tours that Chariots of Fire offers. Both Niagara Falls tour packages are reasonably priced, just $60 per person. The driver/ guides are great. They know alot about Niagara Falls and the surrounding area. (Their jokes can be a little ...

Hello

We have had another busy week and find it hard to believe that we will soon be heading home. We had a day trip to Niagara Falls. We enjoyed exploring Niagara on the Lake, a very pretty little town with lovely gardens and great little gift shops. We then drove on to the falls. We had been there before and still found it a bit of a disappointment as it is so busy and commercialized. Unfortunately it rained all day which spoilt things ...

My friend Kitty, who I met and hung out with in Sintra, Portugal came and picked me up in Toronto. We went to bruch and ate cheesecake, the healthy option of course! We drove to what I think was Kitchener, and went over to her friend ...

... from the late 19th century to the present. They were once trading
houses, banks, and offices of just about every major country, including
Japan, Germany, Russia, the US, France, Britain and others.

During the
early 20th century, it became a major international financial center
for East Asia. It housed financial institutions from all over the world
and China as well. Today, The Bund Shanghai still plays ...

... Discovery Cove also includes a free day pass to Sea World, so we'll be hitting that up too. I am excited about swimming with the dolphins! For the Disney portion, so far I have booked all our dining reservations. I won't bore you with all the details, but I am excited to say that we got the last table for a character breakfast at Chef Mickey's! This means that Mickey, Goofy, and the gang will come around to everyone's table while you eat, so you can meet them ...

There are no travel warnings, nor sub zero temperatures to the next destination! Monday at the highly anticipated hour of 0630 our plane will be leaving for Costa Rica! I'll be making this trip with my roommate, as Kevan is stuck at home working and at school, in the damp Ontario winter as I enjoy the 28C predicted weather for our arrival in San Jose. Different this time will be the lack of automatic spider ...

... up the judo ranks(Kung Fu Kourt... Kung Fu). But, the goal was this trip, and we are here, a week away! Kiki is sleeping i hope, she called me from the concert last night- got the message on the phone this morn(haha... payback)! Kiki's Story: Ya... what Kourt said (haha)... looks like she will be the writer of this pod- I'll just add sarcasm, but here's my opener for ya. It's been a couple of years in the planning, and for me, I picked up a ...

The adventure is never really over until the plane lands at your destination, or rather, until your bags land at your destination. Following our days in Mendoza we spent a short 6 hour van ride through the Andes, watching The Sentinal in Spanish, until we arrived in Santiago, Chile. My moments of sentiment were drawn out as we walked to the same metro station to arrive at the first hostel we had stayed at when Kevan arrived in Chile. We ...

... and when people decide to turn in front of you, or cut across your path, it's crazy. There are lots of motorcycles, but they're all 125 and 250's. Definitely no big sport bikes, you'd be dead within 5 minutes. There are lots of sidecars, but I don't think they race; they certainly wouldn't pass technical inspection. We've been trying to get acclimated to our surroundings and have eaten out a few times. Last night we were playing drinking games with the police commissioner ...
