What's a great destination for a family vacation in Canada?

For our family, anywhere with a menu that includes french fries, chocolate milk and pancakes. Also, a powered camp-site to plug in the Tassimo and replenish depleted caffeine reserves. Truth be told, there's no bed like home.

In what ways is your home town unique from other places you've lived or traveled?

I spent three weeks in India in my youth. It was the most intense culture shock I've ever experienced. Once I adjusted to the disregard for schedules, the crowded trains, the nonchalance for cows freely wandering through town and the poverty, I found a rich culture of genuine and gentle people.

The town I currently call home has a large South Asian population, but there are very few cows wandering unattended in the streets. My neighbours tend to find that sort of thing unusual.

What outdoor activity do you enjoy doing most with your kids?

Seeing and experiencing new places.
