Hopewell rocks is a really amazing place where the highest tides in the world can be spotted. its located at Fundy bay at New Brunswick, and its best to spend at least an overnight stay there so you will be able to see the rocks both during high and low tide in which you can just walk between the rocks.

When visiting Halifax at Nova scotia you should spend a few hours at the citadel, it is a really great way to explore the city history and learn about it more, many guides there will be happy to talk to you. every hour you can see the guards change and at noon there is a canon firing to tell the city it is exactly 12:00

 

 

When on a cruise ship from Alaska to Vancouver/ Seattle (or the other way, you will stop at Skagway – there are a lot of tours you can take any place you stop while cruising but at that place one of the main attractions is taking the train to whitepass at Yukon territory – its costs about 150usd or so. we decided to do this trip on our own and it was amazing – we rented a car at the local Avis (90usd a day) and drove 70 miles to Emerald lake (right next to the railroad anyway) – on the way we saw many bears just walking on the road, we stopped at many   view points which were unreal – just rugged as it can be, we had a stop also at carcross desert which is the smallest desert in the world, at Yukon suspension bridge and at emerald lake we turn back and drove the 70 miles back – it was a great 6 hours trip.

 

This is a really nice place to eat dinner when visiting Niagara falls, it is at embassy suites hotel and all the windows are watching the falls, the cool thing is that during the evening there are colored lights on the falls and it looks great. Ask to sit near a window with falls view.

At Yoho national park, located only about 30 minutes drive from lake Louis e you can find a peaceful, small lake, all green water – Emerald lake.

This is truly one of the more peaceful spots on the Canadian Rockies and i love it, although it is not one of the main, big, well known attractions.
