Photos from Earlier Trips

  
    Earlier Canadian TripsWe had a return trip to Ontario in 2013 after being there for Kevin and Emily's wedding in 2011. A third trip included the Gaspe Peninsula on our drive to Quebec City in 2008 to meet Sharyn and Jeremy who were moving from North Bay to Halifax.

    Oasis of the SeaIn the spring of 2011 we vacationed on the largest cruise ship in the world. The ship was separated into 7 neighbourhoods so there was always something to do or see.  The ports of call were almost secondary because of all the activities on the ship.

    Australia & New ZealandIn 2010 we were in Australia, starting in Sydney. We visited various wine regions, took the train from Sydney to Adelaide, and stayed in Melbourne.  We then flew to New Zealand where we went from Christchurch on the South Island to Auckland on the North Island. 

    Earlier US TripsVisits to the US from a number of years ago.  Included are a trip over Christmas 2010 to Florida (Tampa and Orlando), Debbie's business trip in 2008 to Boulder, Colorado, and a conference for me and training for Debbie in 2004 that were held in New Orleans.

    MoroccoIn the spring of 2010, after vacationing in Spain, we spent 10 days in Morocco. We stayed 3 days in Fes, rode camels into the Sahara desert and stayed overnight in a Nomad tent, drove through the Atlas Mountains and stayed 2 days in Marrakesh.  More photos!
