Special Story about Canada(Most likely) & Toronto for 1 month (4; Last story from Ernest)

[Ernest Lee]

Hello, everybody.

Today is last story from me.

Next week, Ivy will be back and write about Toronto again.

It has been very difficult time recently to me. It’s like a company tests on me. It was terrible for a week.

Anyway, I will write the place you should travel in Canada today.

Actually, today’s story will be totally based on my experience, so you could be felt different when you visit the places that I tell you today.

I will write by provinces. So, be aware of it, okay? ^^

One more thing that I want you to tell you before I start is that basically it is good for you to visit Canada in summer.

B.C. (British Columbia)

Downtown (Vancouver)

As you know, ‘Downtown’ means that it is heart of city.

There are a lot of things to do. You can shop, eat, date, etc.

The name of main street in downtown is Robson St.

The places you might want to go:

Library à it is located east of Robson St. It was build based on ‘Colosseum’. There are a lot Korean books even comic books. All Korean books are donated by Korean or organizations.

Stanley Park à it has been famous to Korean tourist since a music video (Choi, Jin Young; 영원 (?)) was filmed here. You can rent inline skate or bicycle to sightsee the park. But, you should be aware that it could take more than an hour to look around the park almost without stopping.

Whistler Resort à Yes, it is the place that competes with Pyung-Chang for Winter Olympic. It opens four seasons. I heard that it is owned by Japanese. It is beautiful and all the buildings look like fairy town. In winter, you should take gondola (about 20 ~ 30 minutes) to get top of the mountain. It usually takes more than one hour to skiing or snowboarding down to bottom. I strongly recommend to people who love skiing & snowboarding.

Gas Town à You could see in traveller’s guide book about this place to see 'steam clock'. But, you will be disappointed soon. Most of night clubs & jazz bars are concentrated in this place.

Silver Town à it is small but, very luxurious place. Many high level people constantly come to eat dinner. If you like luxurious cars, I recommend you to visit here. You will see a lot of luxurious cars that you just see on magazines.

UBC (University of British Columbia) à if you have a car & boyfriend or girlfriend, it is good place to go. Campus actually has shuttle bus. I heard that it is one of the largest universities in North America. Why? There are more than 20 gates to enter the university.

Alberta

Banff & Jasper (Rocky Mountain) à You heard about Rock Mountain before for sure. You will not be disappointed when you visit there. You can actually see wild animals in front of you. I can not describe about Rocky Mountain in word. You will be experienced what the ‘Nature’ is.

Ontario

Toronto (Wow. What can I say? ^^ It’s like Seoul. Seoul has something, Toronto will have it.)

I can say again you could feel New York but, be waken up shortly. (I told you before)

You can watch baseball in skydome, which Korea does not have yet.

In downtown, I’d like to say it is mix of Seoul & Myung Dong.

You can shop, eat, date, etc. Ivy mentioned before about CN tower and Toronto Island.

It is hard to describe things you can do here. It is paradise to do something especially to play, not to study. Personally, I feel that it is not a good place to study.

Ottawa – Gatineu (it is actually located in Quebec but, I included here because it is a bridge away from Ottawa)

One thing I really and strongly can say that it is awesome place to study. There are almost nothing to outside. Not enough clubs, bars, Korean Restaurants. I recommend Ottawa to you who want to study hard with your dream or to get designations.

But, there are some places that you must go.

One of them is Parliament. Some places open for public.

In winter, you will see one of the longest ice skate path in the world. People actually go to work by skating the path. The path will be appeared around November. City will froze the water in cannel, and it will be a ice skate path.

I do not want to tell about this but, a casino is located in Gatineu. I am not going to say ‘don’t go there’ but, please do not fall into casino games. Casino always wins if you play longer. It is the Law.

Quebec

Montreal à You actually feel Europe. The buildings look like miniatures.

But, please go to Montreal in winter unless you love really cold weather.

Mont Trenblant Resort à Personally, Mont Trenblant is better than Whistler Resort. It is more beautiful and luxurious. I recommend you to go there if you visit Quebec in winter.

This is it for today. From next week, Ivy will be back and write about Toronto.

I tried to tell you more about Canada but, I think I couldn’t. I am really sorry about it.

There are a lot of places you might love, so please enjoy everything in Canada when you visit. If you have questions about Canada, please do not hesitate to email me.

Thank you for 4 weeks. Have a great day.
