Trip to CANADA (Montréal&Québec)

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Hi Steemians, I'm back with another travel-post :)
This time I'm gonna tell you about my two-week vacation to Canada with my family.

We traveled to the french part of Canada, to Montréal and Québec.
We stayed in several hotels but in the first week we enjoyed a place in the middle of nowhere, Sacacomie.
( http://www.sacacomie.com/ ) I can only recommend it, I had the best time there!

Surrounded by nature, Canada gave me my first opportunity to feel the connection with life, the universe, the animals and nature itself.

Every morning my dad kicked us out of bed at 7h30 so that we would go hiking until lunch break. And this hiking experience was really worth it. I never ever felt so free and alive as at that moment. When you are in middle of nature that's when you realise how tiny you are and how beautiful this world is, in its purest form.

I can really claim that I was happy at that point in my life.
I felt like everything was going right.
I could feel life taking its flow.
And it flowed!

I was really fascinated by those views and the animals we saw during our trip in Sacacomie. Also with the help of our tourguide Daniel, who went with us after the beaver family so that he could show us his favourite one, Charlotte :) He also brought us to a kind of treehouse from where we could observe the wild bears from a certain security distance.

He brought us to a little Châlet in the forest where we had a camping fire and he sang us some cool native American chant

He definitely was a lil crazy dude, but still the best tourguide we could've wished for, transmitting us so much information and knowledge and giving us a really good time with his funny nature :D

We had a small ''taxi-drive'' with this military vehicle and a fun buggy ride on muddy terrain

Playing Pétanque. Watch out! I'm really good!

We drove up to the north for two days, on the road to Québec City.
It was lovely but quite cold for August, bad weather.
So we went on a boat-tour to watch the wales, as we got like into a small storm. Our boat then got a alert signal, that we had to ''go rescue'' somebody whos kayak got filled with water and was going to sink... Everybody started to feel unwell and some panicked... Our little wale-trip got into a real adventure, saving that mans life, seeing him not being able to walk and freezing to death.... But he survived and got help from a lifeboat soon after!
But I swear my brothers were really scared at one point, not even scared.. more like chocked or something..

However, let me show you some nice pictures of our trip to the seaside!

All in all, personally, it was the best family trip we ever had (and we do one once to twice a year)!
Everything just was in the right place. Pure HARMONY. Fulfilment. I can honestly say that those experiences in Canada helped me grow a lot, or made me grow! It was a truly fantastic vacation in an even more fantastic country with the most fantastic people!

Book your next trip to CANADA !

And don't forget to HAVE A NICE DAY AND SMILE A LITTLE MORE! :)
