Beautiful city!
11 Eylül 2015, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
We arrived at the hostel, it was still very early so we put my case in the storage room and headed out to walk around Toronto. Everybody seemed really friendly when asking directions etc.

We headed to China town to but Nat a new suitcase so she can ditch her other when it arrives. We found cases which were far cheaper than the ones in DC. We got ourselves a cheeky McDonald's before heading back to the hostel to check in. The hostel is very big but has tea and coffee facilities which is nice, I was also able to do my laundry :-)

We got changed and headed out later in the hope to see some celebrity's at the film festival between having a few cocktails and some tea! Matt Damon was here which we caught a glimpse of but not for long due to the crowds! Sandra Bullock and George Clooney are here too!

When we arrived back at the hostel... Nats bag had arrived! Yey!!Okumaya devam et

Enjoying the city
12 Eylül 2015, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
Today we ventured out into the city to find Toronto Island. It was really cold and neither of us had dressed for the weather but we shivered through!

Toronto island is accessible by ferry, on the way across you can get a fantastic landscape view of the city. At the island it was very quiet but such a lovely place to be with its own beaches and bars!

Returning to Toronto we checked out the street film festival which were fun before heading back to the hostel to get ready for a well needed night out!

At the hostel we met this girl Anna who joined us on our night out. Was a fab night however we had to run between bars as it was throwing it down!Okumaya devam et

Last day in Toronto :-(
13 Eylül 2015, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 14 °C
Our final day in Toronto! We got up this morning and went to all the film festival stalls we couldn't get to yesterday for queuing. Had lots of souvenir photos taken and wandered around for a few hours.

We returned to the hostel to warm up and relax for a bit before heading out to the CN tower (see separate footprint) and to catch the ferry to see the skyline scenery at night... what a fantastic view! We returned to the hostel with some fantastic pictures and hot chocolate!

Gutted to be leaving this city tomorrow!Okumaya devam et

Niagara Falls - Canada
14 Eylül 2015, Kanada ⋅ 🌙 17 °C
We caught the bus to Niagara this morning, the bus ride was a pretty smooth journey. When we got to Niagara we walked from the bus station to our hostel which seems like it is in the middle of nowhere but is okay.

We checked in and walked to the falls which were a half an hour walk; this was quite nice in the sunshine. When looking at the falls they were really picturesque however I expected them to be bigger! After looking at the falls we walked into the local town which reminded us a bit of Blackpool - flashing lights, casinos etc.

We returned to the hostel and walked back up at dusk. We went to the skylon tower which gives a birds eye view of the falls. This was really lovely, we had a drink at the top in the hope to catch the falls lit up at dark however they did not light up. On our way down the guide told us that they would light up in around 10 minutes after we left!

We walked and got some food which was lovely then down to the falls to see them lit at night before getting a taxi back to the hostel.Okumaya devam et

Scary hostel! NF - USA
15 Eylül 2015, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We caught a taxi to the footbridge in the Canadian side of the falls and walked across the bridge over the boarder getting a taxi on the USA side to the hostel. When we arrived at the hostel it seemed really quiet with one guy greeting us at the door. The room is quite big with an en-suite but just us to in it.

We walked down to the falls which was closer than they were at the other side. At the American side you can get much closer to the falls but it isn't as good a view. We caught a boat called 'The Maid of the Mist' which took us right into the falls which soaks you through! We had a walk over to the island and then grabbed some lunch.

We headed back to the hostel which still was really quiet, we spent the afternoon relaxing. A bit later on there were somebody knocking on the door but the guy who works at the hostel had disappeared, leaving him clueless on what to do! We walked to the local supermarket for some tea, upon our return the staff member still had not returned leaving the guy still not able to check in. At around 20:30 the staff guy returned and checked him in.

Later on after getting to grips with the freaky hostel we was watching television and another guy arrived, equally not being able to check in as the guy wasn't here! We gave his the pass code for the front door then he went out to view the falls at night. In which time we headed to our room and locked the door behind us!Okumaya devam et

Buffalo = Shopping!
16 Eylül 2015, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌙 19 °C
We got up early from that scary hostel (I didn't actually sleep that badly!) The guy in reception told us to catch the bus to Buffalo on a street corner a few blocks down. We headed to that corner and stood there for quite a while, until an old man came and approached us and advised us that we was never going to catch a bus on that corner! He pointed out the correct place to go... when getting to the correct place the bus came straight away.. fate or what?!

When getting to the hostel it was very central in the city and people seemed welcoming which was a bonus. We left our bags and went out for a wander and got some lunch from a deli. We then checked in an decided that we wanted to go shopping.

When asking around for the best shopping place people advised us to catch a bus. One random guy found us a bus stop. The bus ride was long and through quite a rough area but when we got to the shopping place it was nice! Numerous bags later and buying Macys entire bag collection we headed back, calling by TGI Fridays for our tea before returning to the hostel.

All in all a good day!Okumaya devam et

Los Angeles!
19 Eylül 2015, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌙 27 °C
On the plane we enjoyed complimentary drinks and snacks...arrived in LA and finally got some hot weather!
Most people told us that it is quite boring in LA with not much to do but our hostel was located on busy Venice Beach so there was plenty to keep us entertained!

We checked in and had a walk along the front. It's such a lively beach with people providing entertainment, people surfing, roller skating etc. The smell of weed was pretty rife too!

Later on we headed out on a pub crawl that the hostel was hosting. The guy running it didn't seem like he knew what he was doing but it was a good night all the same!Okumaya devam et
