Hello!
I was looking through my phone and saw pictures that I took from Canada! This was middle of July 2011. My church friends and I decided to take a trip to Canada before summer ended! My first trip out of the country with just friends! (I know. Had strict Asian parents.. what can I say. ;] ) Canada has got to be one of my favorite place in the world! (aside from San Diego!) It is a great place to live if you love nature and scenery!
I took couple pictures from here and there. I will be uploading non-food pictures!! Only because I want to share with you guys how beautiful Canada was! :D
Like always, feel free to leave comments if you like! :]
Enjoy!
