The Jeep

Toronto Waterfront

We sawLeia mais

Niagara on the Lake

You know, when you visit a fort in Europe, you think of stone walls and a bastion. Here it was was just a powder magazine and earth mounds arranged in a star pattern. It worked though...

When we started our journey, the thought of going to somewhere I never was before frightened the heck out of me. But now that it's over I'm scared to go back to my normal life. Germany feels so smallLeia mais
