Visiting King's Landing was like travelling back in time. We got to see the interior of old homes, churches, and barns from the 1800s, and for those looking to get their hands dirty, there was the option of pitching in with some of the farm work. The garrison district is the historic and cultural heart of Fredericton. This is where you can catch free performances, join heritage walking tours, and watch the changing of the guard. The Lighthouse on the Green stands on the banks of the St. John River. Though it once helped guide fishermen to shore, today the lighthouse is a popular restaurant where you can enjoy some seafood or even cool down with an ice cream. The nice thing about Fredericton is that you're never too far from nature. The city has many walking trails and biking paths that are easily accessible, and that means people spend a lot of time outdoors.
This former railway bridge is now popular with pedestrians. It has great views of the St. John River and the 2 university campuses that sit up on the hill. Waterloo Row is one of the prettiest streets in the city. It is lined with historic homes and mansions that look over the river. If you happen to be in town over the weekend, be sure to check out the Farmers' Market for some delicious eats!
The Nashwaak Trail is part of an extensive trail system and it's great for either walking or biking. We managed to spot quite a bit of wildlife during our outing, including a Great Blue Heron, a beaver, and lots of chipmunks. Gallery 78 is the oldest private art gallery in New Brunswick and it hosts exhibitions throughout the year. Christ Church Cathedral has a very active music schedule. During the summer months they host choirs and recitals. Admission is by donation with the proceeds going back into the community. The Legislative Building is the home to the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick. Guided visits must be arranged in advance. For art lovers, there's the option of visiting the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. This gallery features the work of both Canadian and international artists. Odell Park is a massive park located in the middle of Fredericton. It has many trails that run through the forest and some of the trees there are believed to be over 400 years old. It's a nice green escape and the perfect place to exercise in the summer. The changing of the guard is a ceremony not to be missed. You can watch guards re-enact a drill ceremony to the beat of a piper and drummer. For a spooky look at the city's past, you can join a haunted hike that takes you on a walking tour of Fredericton after dark. The university of New Brunswick and St. Thomas University have a shared campus with beautiful grounds. Even if you're not a student, the campus is worth a visit. If you're looking to catch a performance, then head down to the Playhouse. They host all sorts of music, dance, and theatre productions. And that's a little glimpse of Fredericton. We really enjoyed our summer visit to the city, and we hope you'll have the chance to check it out too!

Toronto Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
Welcome to Toronto, the largest city in Canada and a hub of trade and culture.
“The City That Works” is full of a can-do spirit that is reflected in its buildings. From the famous CN Tower to the castle-like Casa Loma, there’s all sorts of eye candy for the architecture enthusiast. Your Toronto tour should include a trip to Edward Gardens in Hyde Park, or one of the many other green spaces located in the city. Take a bike ride along the trails, or enjoy a picnic while the local chipmunks look on. Don’t drop anything; they’ll grab it.
Your Toronto sightseeing can continue at the Harborfront Center. Go for a walk along the marina, or grab a pint at a brewhouse. And no trip to Toronto is complete without a visit to the Hockey Hall of Fame, so make sure you’ve got your team paraphernalia in order before you venture inside. Looking for shopping? You’ll find the Underground City and Kensington Market ready to welcome you and your credit card – or several credit cards, as the case may be. After a day of madcap purchasing, why not stock up on fresh, healthy food at the St. Lawrence Market? You’ll have worked up quite an appetite for delicious local produce.
Before you leave, head to Niagara Falls and take in the spectacle of nature’s power. You’ll never forget the sight and sound of all that water pouring over the falls, nor will you ever forget your trip to Toronto.

Winter in Canada Vlog | Visiting Family in Fredericton
Join us for a Winter in Canada vlog as I visit family in Fredericton to enjoy some relaxing downtime and to experience snow related activities including watching hockey, snowshoeing and enjoying a snowstorm. Audrey's family lives in Brampton, Ontario and my family live in Fredericton, New Brunswick so after spending Christmas and New Year with her family at a cottage in Seeley's Bay I hopped on a plane to spend a couple of weeks with my family.
Things got off to an iffy start when all of the flights leaving Toronto for Fredericton were canceled aside from mine. With fingers crossed I was able to make it out and the views over Toronto upon leaving were the nicest I've ever seen. A winter wonderland covered in snow with clear visibility. However, as soon as we left Ontario and entered Quebec we entered a thick blanket of clouds and the flight was super turbulent until we landed.
Upon arriving in Fredericton the snowstorm hit really hard and the entire city was covered in a thick blanket of snow. That night, prior to the start of the World Junior hockey game between Canada and Czechia I was craving a pizza and ended up having to go out in the snow to pick it up after only 1/6 places were open.
Canada ended up winning the World Junior tournament with a victory over Sweden and it was great to take it in with my Dad at home. We also ended up going to a University of New Brunswick (UNB) hockey game where they lost for the first time that I've witnessed in person.
Aside from hockey it was great to spend time with my Mom and our Maine Coon cat Hobie. He was up to his mischievous self ready to play at the drop of a hat and falling asleep in bowls on the table.
I ordered a pair of snowshoes from Amazon and had just the perfect weather to break them in with my Dad at ODell park in Fredericton. The last part of the video showcases a walk around some of the most iconic parts of Fredericton all covered in snow. For just a brief visit I had a great time being home.

Winter in Canada vlog visiting family in Fredericton Video Transcript:
Greetings from Pearson International Airport here in Toronto. As you can see this is a bit of a different vlog. I am not here with Audrey. I'm going to visit my parents for 12 days just by myself. Our parents live in different parts of Canada. My parents live in Fredericton so I'm going to see them and yeah I'm just catching a flight here from Toronto. And I thought I would show you guys a little behind the scenes of what it is like to be in Canada in the winter.
I have no idea if I'm going to make my flight to Fredericton because there is a snow storm coming there. It is like snowmageddon. Hopefully I make this flight and when I arrive in Fredericton I will show you guys what it is like to experience a snow storm in Canada.
We got pizza with pineapple, we have pepperoni and we have bacon. More importantly we have a very important hockey game to watch.
Who is playing? Canada eh! Canada eh. Canada against the Czech Republic (Czechia) and if they advance to what the semifinals. They play Sweden. We've got garlic fingers on the side and Picaroons beer.
So we've got beer. We've got pizza. We've got garlic fingers and we've got Canada going for gold. We ended up smoking them and going to the Gold Medal game.
Look we've got Hobie the great to watch the game too. Hobie the Maine Coon kitty. We won! What do you think? One more notch in the gold belt.
Tonight we have another really exciting local match we're actually going to a live game and watching a UNB game playing one of their biggest rivals here in Atlantic Canada Saint FX.
Check out all of the snow. Going snowshoeing we'll follow the trail a bit, maybe break some of our own trail. This is like the quintessential thing to do in Canada in the winter.
The snowshoeing with my Dad was great. I'm in downtown Fredericton and I thought I would leave you guys with a few winter scenes.
This is part of our Travel in Canada video series showcasing Canadian food, Canadian culture and Canadian cuisine.
