a good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.


Sometimes, it's nice to get away from it all. That is exactly why my boyfriend and I decided to take a weekend trip to....Toronto! Okay, this may not be the most exotic location (we don't live too far away from the city) but it was a ton of fun. Rather than spend a lot of money going somewhere far away, we made the most of what was nearby.

So, what did we do? We visited the Science Center (which I had never been to), went to Uptown Abbey - a Downtown Abbey themed mystery dinner theater, wandered around the city, caught a movie, went to dinner, and just acted like tourists. It was so much fun. Plus, it was really nice to get away from work for a little bit and relax! I definitely needed that. It was the perfect weekend with the perfect person.

Since I had such a wonderful time, I thought I would share some of the pictures from our mini-getaway.


Have you taken a vacation recently? Where did you go?
