Amsterdam in Panorama

I fell in love with Amsterdam... Which I know isn't always the case for every traveller who comes to the city. I'll write more on why later, but for now I'll just leave you with a few of my favourite panoramas from our trip, which seems to be my latest obsession. Enjoy! xxx

The County in Fall... (Photo Edition)

I decided to take some of my own advice for once & be a tourist in my own area, whilst I wait for my move abroad. I mentioned this in my post on how not to go crazy during the wait for travel, but often I forget to take these little day trips myself & usually tend to focus on the bigger picture, forgetting about the little things around me.

But on to the photos! One of my friends & I have recently taken a few day trips around the 'county' as we call it, which actually happens to be quite a popular area for tourists during the Summer. Living here I often forget how gorgeous it can be. I s'pose I should probably mention that this area is Picton & Wellington, better known for its vineyards (Ontario's Taste Trail) & beaches (Sandbanks Provincial Park & North Beach in particular). Being my favourite season, I felt the need to document everything of course. My favourite photos from our trips...

Campbell's Orchard

Apple picking with my girl.

This orchard is seriously gorgeous.

& another... One of my favourite fall festivities.

Typical selfy, because there's a corn maze behind me of course.

Still at Campbell's Orchard.

 

Sandbanks Vineyard (along the Taste Trail)

Wellington Beach

Along the beach... Wellington is quite a rocky beach whereas at Sandbanks you'll find it to be more sandy (never would've guessed eh?!) as well as you'll also find the dunes there.

Seaweed? Quite fond of this photo, not sure why.

The lighthouse in Wellington, a town of approximately 1200.

The boat harbour in Picton.

If ever in the area, PLEASE stop at Slicker's, a cute little ice cream shop in Bloomfield who specialize in their own homemade ice cream. My favourite flavour is campfire!

Because bridges are always necessary.

As are Ed the Sock Monkey sweaters... Had to add this.



I'm almost positive there will be more fall photos to come, having a slight obsession with the season & all. But as always if you aren't sick of my photos yet you can pop on over to my Instagram for plenty more! & I'd love to hear your thoughts, see your photos?! Do you ever pretend to be a tourist in your own area? What are your favourite fall festivities! Or am I the only one who acts like a 13 year old this time of year?

Until next time! & remember...

Capture the Colour: Canada Eh

I've loved seeing everyone's capture the colours, there are definitely some talented travel bloggers out there. So thank you for the tag Alex! This entry is purely for fun, so I decided to add in the colour orange because I'm awful with decisions. I figured what better travels of mine to represent than my own country?! Anyway, if you aren't sick of sunsets yet, you'll enjoy!

Yellow: One of my favourite places to wakeboard!... West Lake, Ontario (Sandbanks Provincial Park).

Blue: A beach in Wellington, Ontario I tend to frequent.

Green: One of the million fields in the countryside near my home (& my dog, Bourbon)!

Red: One of my favourite hobbies, fishing! In Stirling, Ontario (a.k.a. Hicktown).

White: A lily in my own backyard!

 

Orange: Pumpkin patches surround the area I live in during Autumn; this was taken at one of my favourite places to stop at on my way to work.

 

I would love to see Andrea, Katherine, Kelsey, Brooke & Claire do this. I think you'd all rock this! Until next time...

Views from Up Top: Eiffel Tower Edition



Looking through my photo collection I noticed I have quite a few photos from 'up top'... So I thought I should probably start a little series of sorts & with that I bring you the first post, eiffel tower edition! These will just be short refreshing posts. I also narrowed it down to 8 photos for everyone's sake. Enjoy!
