Oh Canada! 2013 (St John's, NF)

Journey to become truly Canadian. Summer 2013 objective to visit all of Canada's wonderful 10 provinces from coast to coast :) 

Final pit stop of the cross Canada journey was St John's, Newfoundland. From its breath taking views, rows and rows of jelly bean houses to its wacky culture (eg. screeching: reciting nonsensical native jargon, taking a shot of screech & kissing a fish), St John's is most definitely among my favorite cities in this huge country. 

quick stroll along quidi vidi lake

picture perfect quidi vidi lake

@ cape spear, the most eastern point in Canada

St. John's Harbour.. a pretty tight squeeze.

of course, the infamous jelly bean houses!

more jelly beans :)

i may have gotten a tad carried away... but the jelly bean houses are too adorable

the last jelly bean shot :)

Oh Canada! 2013 (Halifax, NS)

Journey to become truly Canadian. Summer 2013 objective to visit all of Canada's wonderful 10 provinces from coast to coast :) Final stop in the Nova Scotia segment was to Halifax, a small little city filled with character. 

Oh Canada! 2013 (Cape Breton, NS)

Journey to become truly Canadian. Summer 2013 objective to visit all of Canada's wonderful 10 provinces from coast to coast :) Next stop on the maritime adventure was a quick stop to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia's hidden gem. The Cabot Trail that loops around Cape Breton is approx. 300KM and remains largely uncommercialized meaning minimal establishments in the surrounding area & limited cell phone reception. In other words, make sure to pack for unforeseen circumstances :)
