On my way North I saw this sign while driving. And everyone needs to take a washroom break on a road trip, so naturally I had to check it out. It was beautiful. You can vote for Canada's Best Restroom annually until the beginning of July. I'm rooting for the Big Apple in Colborne Ontario for 2023's winner! Keep your eye out for these lovely restrooms along your journey. A quirky little contest for sure.
How cute is this rainbow house in Lethbridge Alberta!? And a super perk to visiting here...When the owners are home, you just might end up with a pack of skittles!!
What a cool creepy place to explore, especially in the rain. This Crooked Forest is quite unique and a fun stop if you're anywhere near the area in Saskatchewan!

A beautiful informative stop in southeastern Alberta in Medicine Hat at the worlds largest teepee will teach you a lot about the area and its rich history.
While he is not the worlds largest channel cat, he is absolutely adorable and worth the atop in Selkirk Manitoba. An awesome area to explore, especially if you like fishing

Well, yes kind of. I learned about the game Bunnock and the huge championship Macklin Saskatchewan puts on every year. It is a game where they throw these bones and try to knock down the opponents row of bones!
Well this used to be the worlds largest baseball bat. But Kentucky in the USA took that title away awhile ago. No less, this is a neat spot to check out in Edmonton Alberta.
If you've ever wondered just how big those wind turbin blades are, the big windmills you see scattered across Canada in the fields, make a stop in Carmangay Alberta! Not only will you learn about wind turbins and get to see one up close, but...
