Where do you holiday now?

Brilliant question.
Being a family of Canada fans we try to get there each few years. (Lovely U.K holidays in between though.)
Montreal for a conference.
Edmonton work related & Recce
Toronto (+ Canoeing in Algonquin)
Calgary (stampede) Rockies in general a few times now.
Newfoundland. St Johns & Gros Morne.
If you ask my girls about their best ever holiday, its Newfoundland!! That makes me very proud, but their friends don't understand.
So our house is full of 'Canadiana'. Trans Canada signs with moose/bears etc on. Moosie wind chimes. Wildlife prints (limited edition so not all 'tat')
Now we think we're emigrating, we'll have to bring it all back!
Never been to Vancouver so that would be a must, oh and that place they make wine sounds good.
Future holidays will probably be taken up with visiting the folks we left behind. I don't suppose we will ever own our own cabin. Sounds nice.

As to holidaying. We’ve driven across Canada both east and west to the coast. We go to the US sometimes to see family and drive down to the Carolina’s. The UK to see family and tour the countryside at least every other year, and last year we had a long weekend in Switzerland.

Oh I forgot. We once drove from Edmonton to Winnipeg and back again to Calgary. How could I have forgotten.

I got all the hype form my Canadian wife, she never understood why I was disappointed until I finally took her Scotland and climbed a few Munroe’s, now she gets it.

Guess I will have to wait to go to BC to see more than hills.

Hopefully I'll get another trip to TO later in the year and an opportunity to have a few beers. (thats unless you're all washing your hair like last time I was in town.......)

T-7 and counting. We are at 30 minutes readiness so sadly my drinking pretty limited at present!
