Betty’s Favourite Travel Memories

I enjoy intergenerational travel : watching my grandson dressed to pillage at Pirate Night on Disney Fantasy, and seeing my son and grandson riding the Aquaduck. These moments I have captured as videos on my IPad to relive again and again.

There are many happy memories of trips:

I think my favourite was a China river cruise as it was so different.

Another favourite is Hawaii. Highlights were viewing Hawaii from the vantage point of a helicopter tour, and swimming with dolphins in Kona.

Currently, I am off on a great adventure – Dubai to Cape Town – followed by a safari ! ( Photos to follow.)

There is such excitement arriving at a new city; eg. seeing the opera house in Sydney , Australia as the sun comes up, or arriving in Budapest with the lights on all the bridges.

Here are some photos of some of other favourite travel places and activities.

The Villages of France

Great Cities: Paris & Lyon

We were lucky enough to visit Paris for the opening of the Christmas markets. This was after our Rhone river cruise. My favourites here were the cafes, the patisseries, and of course, visiting famous landmarks! There was even time for a cooking lesson.
My favourite attraction was La Fresque des Lyonnaise in Lyon. It features frescos of the famous people of Lyon.

Beautiful British Columbia, Canada

Although I’ve been to many places around the world I find we have some amazing destinations right here in Canada.
Tofino was one of my favourites. Here are some photos from British Columbia.
