I rarely mention the merits of my home country on this blog, but The Guardian did such a fine job doing so I felt compelled to post the links here. Eastern Canada, called the Maritime provinces, is the Canadian equivalent of the New England states of Maine, New Hampshire and Rhode Island, but on a smaller scale. With the Canadian dollar trading lower than the American dollar and the Euro (as I write this 1 USD = 1.28904 CAD and 1 EUR = 1.52507 CAD), Canada is indisputably a great vacation destination.

Looks like it might be time for a Canadian road trip this Summer….:-)

Yup! I’m thinking the same thing. Grab a flight Paris to Montreal (such a great city, I know it well), then head eastwards. Sounds like a good plan.
From Mount Desert Island Maine, thank you, love Eastern Canada
And guess what, Jim? I don’t know Eastern Canada at all. I’ve never been east of Quebec. I’m looking forward to discovering this great region. (I hear the natives are real friendly.)
Thanks for this. The wife and I have just chosen our 2018 summer vacation destination.
Super!
