On my round trip through central Canada I did not want to miss its capital, so I included a stop over in Ottawa on my way from Huntsville to Montréal.
After my early arrival I took the short walk from the Ottawa Central Station to my hotel...
I always wanted to see Niagara Falls so I incorporated a side trip to the Niagara region into my round trip to Canada.
This excursion also included a short visit to the United States of America and Niagara-on-the-Lake.
I really loved this stopover...
Early october my three week fall vacation in Canada ended. My initial plan for a road trip in the southwest of USA with a good friend of mine failed so I had to chose a different destination for my vacation: a round trip through central Canada
Dubai is a fascinating city.
End of spring I decided to make a trip to Dubai in order to enjoy the warm climate and to observe the modern cityscape. Dubai offers some cultural sights, a rich selection of great architecture and even some great beaches.
