On my way to Niagara Falls I stopped in Ann Arbor Michigan to stay with my brother and his family. I also stopped in London, Ontario and St. Catharines, Ontario on my way back I stopped in Hamilton Ontario and Windsor, Ontario. I stopped in Ann Arbor again to see my brother on the way back. My brother was recently married and I have a 13 year old step daughter. I met her for the first time. She introduced me to Snapchat and I played around with some of the image filters. I also spend a lot of time watching her and Brian play Pokemon go. The first day I was at my brother's house it was the day before my birthday so they got me a birthday cake and sang to me so that was fun.
In Canada some of the differences I noted included; poutine, ketchup chips, differences Kit Kats and Oreos, speed limits listed in kilometers per hour, gas stations listing prices in liters instead of gallons, to name a few.
I was finally able to get Facebook live to work and use it for the first time while on my journey. I used it a few times throughout the trip.
Niagara Falls was breathtaking. The body ride near it was amazing and worth the wet hair! Someone gave me their tourist card that they weren't going to use any more of that day. So I got free admission to the white rapids and I got to use the buses for the day. That was really awesome.
There really is so much to tell about the trip but the main idea is I had so much fun and I'm so glad I did it. This was my first paid summer off as a teacher and I wanted to make the absolute most of it. I'm looking forward to many new adventures as this road trip has reawakened my traveling Desires. In fact, I've just booked a trip to Cambodia over Thanksgiving break. I have a layover in Tokyo and I'm super excited about all of it. Sabrina is traveling once again.
