Canada was beautiful. but I truly missed home. and Chanel.
you learn to appreciate home after you've been abroad for a bit.
I finished Life of Pi during the six days of traveling. it was witty and tragic at the same time. enjoyable, but I'm still trying to soak in everything. I immediately felt like going to a zoo upon finishing it. I'm still thinking about what book #4 will be.
there's a considerable amount of sunlight even at 9:30pm. but shops close extremely early. around 7 or 8.
the legal drinking age is 19. thus, I took the opportunity to try out a few drinks.
there isn't much to do at night, so my parents and I went around to local pubs and bars and did a lot of eating and drinking. needless to say, I gained some weight that I must lose immediately.
1. white russian-didn't enjoy it. it was too strong for me.
2. appletini-sour and sweet. delicious.
3. strawberry daquiri-YUMS.
4. guinness beer-too strong and thick for my taste.
5. icewine-so good! I usually hate wine, but this type of dessert wine is really sweet.
there are very many lakes in Canada. I found out there are about 3 million. beautiful landscapes.
we saw a black bear, a momma grizzly bear and her two cubs, a grown deer, and a family of mountain goats.
houses are furnished with a great many windows. I loved that about the country. large windows are my favorite. but the weather is much too cold to live. California weather has spoiled me. although, I don't know what's going on these days. I expected it to be blazing hot when I got back, but it's been surprisingly chilly. hoping for warmer weather.
