Couple Getaways - O - Ontario, Canada



Honestly, it could take me weeks to write about all of the amazing things for couples to do and places to see in Ontario Canada. Algonquin Park, Toronto, Balls Falls, the Botanical gardens, Fort Henry, Port Dover, wine touring, Shaw Theater and the lovely park that surrounds it with its swans and picturesque trails, Haliburton with its wolves and beautiful lake cabins, Waterloo, Niagara Falls and plenty of historic sites. Hikes, picnics, long walks through forests and around lakes - there's no shortage of romantic excursions.

I've been fortunate enough to have lived in Ontario for awhile and most weekends were for getting out to explore somewhere new. We found some out-of-the-way places, we camped around a lake for a week where it was so quiet and peaceful there was only the sound of the loons to carry us to sleep. Toronto is a good week's adventure all on its own and one I'll save for my T post.

Ontario is a great place to visit if you enjoy the outdoors. There are all sorts of parks, trails, and quaint towns to pass through. You will also find a variety of delicious eateries and fine dining restaurants. And let me tell you, going in the fall when all of the leaves are dressed in their beautiful colors - you want to be outside with hot cocoa or tea and your sweetie.

All throughout April I'll be posting about Couple Getaways as part of the A-Z Challenge. I hope you'll stop by for the next destination! No passport necessary ;)

My God, what stunning pictures! A good friend of mine here in Seattle just moved back home to Ontario. Toronto to be exact. So I'll be visiting sometime soon. Hope I can see some beautiful places like that.

I'm a new follower via the A to Z. Nice to meet you.
