It's amazing how things changed when we left the province of Ontario and headed into Quebec, signs and billboard advertisements are not in English, but all in French. I know we're in a different country, but I feel like quite a foreigner!

Here, you don't even need to leave the state, tourism is such big business in Queensland that in places like Cairns and the Gold Coast all the signs are in English/Japanese. I hope your having a wonderful time!! Kaleb's always wanted to go to Canada, but I'd rather visit the US!
so good to see such familiar faces :) yes, Canada is really a different country and you really feel it in Ottawa and in Quebec! lovely; I miss hearing French here but it is quite an adjustment when just being introduced to it all! :)
km not miles...you are adapting already!
Beautiful photos! I have yet to visit that area of Canada. It looks lovely!
