I’ve had a fair number of bad days since I’ve been back to Canada. In the last year since I’ve been back, my mom has lost her mind and decided I’m a devil child – so saying all is and has been merry would be a fucking lie. But the truth be known, I’ve had far fewer bad days and far more great days then I would have had a year back in Dubai.
So we’ve had family visit us from the mainland – funny enough, one of them just got back from a stay in Dubai with the Canadian military. Last week, I took out guests for a short ferry ride to the inner harbour, where we fed live wild seals fresh fish, and did the tourist thing, watching street performers and eating world famous fish & chips. The fact that you can have such a great day and not spend a small fortune is just one of the things that make this city a much more desirable place to be, then the UAE and all its transitions right now.
On top of that, I can’t stress enough how beautiful it is here. Here are some of the photos from that tourist-type day. I was taking the pics, so I’m not in them.

4 words of wisdom:
BC, The Rockies, Alberta, Sask, Northern Ontario, The Maritimes and all of Quebec - amongst the most gorgeous places on God's own earth, indeed.
Proud to be a Canadian - just wish I grew up or lived there for a while to call myself a true Canadian :) I wish, like you, I could call it home in it's true sense (not complaining, just thinking out loud :)
