We just got home after our big 6 week holiday and just slept for 10 hours straight.Had a wonderful time with lots of memories of wonderful places met many new American friends and met up with some old friends I will try to post some pictures of our trip soon.Basically the itinerary was.... Fly from Brisbane to Las Vegas spend 6 days there visiting various places like the Grand canyon Hoover dam route 66 then fly to Toronto spend the week there with friends visiting places like Niagara Falls then a train ride to Montreal spend 4 nights there seeing what there was to see in this beautiful city of Montreal then travel to Quebec city where we boarded a cruise ship and next day we were able to explore old Quebec city which is absolutely stunning.Spend 2 weeks sailing down the eastern coast of Canada and the USA stopping at various ports like Boston for the day and ending up at fort Lauderdale where we spent 2 nights and then taxi down to Miami where we spent another five nights after which we can home.... it's a bloody long way home lol
Wow, what a trip.I was in Quebec City in September and it is indeed a beautiful place. I've been to most of the other places you mention but not all in one go !
Welcome back, Kev! I’m glad you and Gwyneth had such a wonderful time. My husband has been obsessed with taking a cruise! I think he’s pretty much got it all planned out already. I am afraid to even think about it, let alone discuss it because, well, life has always been what happens to me while I’m busy making other plans.
I was surprised at Boston, didn't know it was so nice, very clean also. Bar Harbour is also very nice but wasn't fussed with Portland. Miami was stinking hot, most people (60% I think) speak Spanish as a first language.Thanks Kelley, its not for everybody, but for it its like finding one of those things in life that you absolutely love and could do forever I could quite happily live on a cruise ship (that doesn't include Carnival or P & O though)
Having grown up in the suburbs of Boston but living in Atlanta for 29 years now I get your surprise of Boston. It is a terrific city with so much history and coolness. I have a few coworkers that have recently had trips to Boston and they come back with your reaction too. Add in the fresh seafood, wow.
