What's on your mind?

[CodyFaith]

To Ontario, Canada. Surely you have heard me speak of it here before, Milady Squeakers? ^-^

As to how? Well, with God's blessing, I have sought. The entire process is quite a bit of red tape, though, unfortunately.

Oh snap you'd be in my country? Would you be in Toronto or Ottawa do you think?

Here's to hopin' it works out! You'd love Canada I'm sure.

Toronto. Somehow the Spirit calleth me to her. ^-^ But seriously, as I have said before, it is both an exciting and terrifying prospect. Who can know what God may have waiting for me there? Of course, as in the case of any single person, it is naturally tempting to think God calls me there specifically to find my future Princess-wife. But I actually am not banking on that. It could easily be another reason. And that's fine. Besides, in any event, there's plenty of cute Canadian gals who will be around to enjoy their company, I have no doubt.

It's not equality to tell me to be kind women's faults when it comes to looks.

I'm carrying this anger for the rest of my life with pride. The more you express something the more society becomes desensitized to it and accepts it.

I think you'll like Toronto. There is no shortage of things to do and see in the city. It's also extremely multicultural with many distinct neighbourhoods. The harbourfront is very beautiful as well.

Oh, okay. For some reason, I thought you lived out west. I didn't realize you were from the Maritimes. I've never visited the east coast. I want to visit PEI sometime with a few friends. I'm a big fan of lobster so I think I'd enjoy a trip to Atlantic Canada, haha

Sweet! You're going north to brave the tundra and display a knight's honor to the Great White Northerners!

Now you can visit via online! lol

I took that when it was colder a couple months back. God's brought me to the harbor many times to calm my soul... the sound of the water on the rocks and the general look of it all (especially at night) is really peaceful.

Never been to PEI yet.

That's really cool. Thanks for sharing That does look very tranquil. I do find water to be very calming, as well. That is nice that you live close enough to enjoy the harbour regularly.

Now, I definitely want to come, haha. I'm guessing that summer is the best time to visit. I've talked with @Travelers.Soul and her friend about taking a trip to Atlantic Canada together someday. We better start saving

Somehow, I have a fairly vivid memory of what parts of this city looked like when i was there as a child.

Wait, there was actually a song about that?

Fall's really beautiful on the East Coast. Very, very beautiful. But yes summer is the best.

Myself God seems to be calling me away from N.S. When, I don't know exactly, but it just seems to be the case.

My favorite place in Canada thus far is Quebec. I had an amazing time when I was a teen on a class trip and fell in love with the province. The looks, the culture. I'm also half french though so yeah haha.

Yeah man that song's on the country station all the time, everyone knows it

Haha, I take it that you are bilingual. I took two semesters of French in college and I don't remember anything

I do agree with you about the culture and beauty of Quebec. I did visit Quebec once years ago. I stayed in a hotel in Vieux Montreal for a few days and took a day trip to Quebec City. I loved the stone buildings and cobblestone streets. It really reminded me more of Europe than Canada. Notre Dame Cathedral was very impressive. The food was good too. I had the best French Onion soup I've ever had one night and crepes

Sadly my parents didn't raise me bilingual. The parent whose French spoke France-french not Canadian French and they didn't want to raise me bilingual because apparently there's quite a difference between the dialects (so they say anyway). To me it's a poor excuse because it really would have benefitted me I believe. Now I have to learn french on my own.

When I went on the trip I was actually one of the only English class students to go, 95% of the students who went were french-immersion but they had extra seats to fill so I was fortunate enough to be one of them.
We stayed in a nice hotel, had a tour guide the whole time, went to french shops and cafes and a restraunt. We went on a cruise at night on the water, that was really nice.
We went into a big cathedral, googled the one you said but I can't tell if that's the one. I remember when we were touring Mass was going on and so we were to stay to the side and be quiet. There were signs saying no recording or pictures but me being me as a teen I failed to obey the rule and took a video lol (to which the end of the video is me zooming in on my teacher stopped and glaring at me while pointing at one of the signs that said no recording. I was a bit of a smartass. )

Haha, you sound like a bit of a troublemaker I can't blame you for trying to take pics. When I visited in 2011 they allowed photos inside the cathedral. I took several. These were some of my favorites:

Wow! Can't say I expected that... so unique looking. I didn't see that when I googled aha, was mainly looking at the exterior to see if I knew it.
I must have been in a different Cathedral.

Okay, well now you need to add this Cathedral to your must see list next time you visit This time you can take pics or record video and not get glared at, haha.

The blue illumination of the interior was part of their very cool visual effects and illumination tour/ show. I remember it was a very reasonable admission price ( like $10). There was a presentation with lights and a short film on the history of the church. I highly recommend it. I was very surprised by how ornate the interior of the church was and the huge pipe organ. It's definitely on par with any of the cathedrals in Europe.
