Hey all. It looks like I'm going on a bit of a road trip, in mid-to-late July, with my parents. We are travelling from south central Ontario, my small city, to the province of Quebec, maybe about an hour or an hour and a half, north of Ottawa, Ontario. We have an Airbnb over there, I believe it's for 3 nights. The drive itself will be about 5 to 6 hours to get there, and we are probably going to take a slightly different route, when driving back home, but it would also be around 6 hours or so. Anyhow, I'm very excited for this, should be nice! I have been to Quebec before, but mostly Quebec City, and a few places we stopped at, on our way over to New Brunswick (that was almost 21 years ago, too! ) It's always nice to have Summer plans! We are also going to be visiting with a family friend, who has a place over in that area of Quebec, so that will be nice. We do not often get to see her Anyone else have some cool plans for the Summer/travel plans? Cheers!

Congratulations on the fun trip you have planned! I’m going to Canada on a cruise in October, but that’s not the summer. We were supposed to go in September last year, but our flights got canceled.

Thank you, Amber! I appreciate it Oh wow, really? That's awesome! Is that on the west coast or the east coast? Have you been to Canada before? Ahh sorry to hear that the flgihts got cancelled, back in September. Glad to hear that it just got shuffled to another year, though. I'm sure that will be a really nice cruise. I hope there is a nice itinerary, with great places on your stops, with the cruise

@dilleo We’re leaving from the east coast, Virginia to be exact. This year’s cruise is a little less varied than last year’s, but then again, this year’s cruise is two days longer. It will be my first visit to Canada (we live in Oklahoma), but the rest of my family has been (not to these locations though). We’re going to two stops in Novia Scotia and one stop on Prince Edward Island. My sister is over the moon excited about visiting PEI because Anne of Green Gables was filmed there.

@AmbiePam Neat! Oh wow, that's quite the trek from Oklahoma, but I'm sure it will be well worth it Very cool! I hope you have a great time there. I've been to PEI, but never to Nova Scotia. PEI is very beautiful. Is Halifax one of the stops in Nova Scotia? That's a good reason to be excited, for your sister

Your summer plans sound like alot of fun. We try to take a different route back when we go somewhere too. Have a great time, and see what you can see between your place and the destination.

Thanks! Cool, I've been to quite a few of the US states, but never Montana. I hope you are able to go there. I would love to check out more western US states, myself!

I will likely be staying at home for the summer since my relatives will be working at their jobs.
