Happy Canada Day

On this day, I am truly lucky to reflect on the many different places within Canada that I have been able to visit. All of it's natural beauty, amazing people and major accomplishments as a nation; I am, and will always be, honoured to be Canadian.



Lake Louise in Banff National Park, Alberta (named after Queen Victoria's fourth daughter, Princess Louise Caroline Alberta)



Provencher Bridge over the Red River in Winnipeg, Manitoba (this being the third bridge built in this location, completed in 2003)



Rest stop along the Ottawa River in Deep River, Ontario (the Ottawa River, for most of it's length, defines the border between Ontario and Quebec)



Peggy's Point Lighthouse in Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia (the current lighthouse was built in 1914, replacing the wooden structure built in 1868)



Confederation Bridge (links Prince Edward Island to the mainland of New Brunswick. The bridge took 4 years to build and is a total length of 12.9 km).
