Where Do You Want To Go

Finding happiness is simpler than you might reckon. For a Canadian, snow is no huge deal. This year, we’ve been shoveling it since early November.

YELLOWKNIFE

Then, every now and then, one comes across something truly unique, something that really does make your eyes pop with wonder. Such is Yellowknife, a town built on a peninsula of rock in the Arctic.

LUSK CAVERNS, GATINEAU PARK

Happiness is spelunking. Let’s face it, you’ve done a million vacations on the road and in the air and on the water. The two caves are merely a passage for a stream that flows underground for a few yards. The first cave is just right for small children, who can wade in the gently-flowing water.

The second cave is a small more challenging, as the water pools into a miniature underground lake. June is a fantastic time to visit; by August there’s not as much water.. And what better time to visit the city by the bay than Mardi Gras, when the historic city puts on it’s party face. This traditional celebration was brought to Mobile by the French even before it was established in New Orleans. Be sure to visit Oakleigh while you are there. In fact Mobile is packed with fantastic historic sites from the French Fort Conte to the U.S.S Alabama, These sites have been carefully preserved or restored.

Take time away from the celebrating to visit Bellingrath Gardens and home, Dauphin Island Sea Lab, Weeks Bay Preserve, and Mobile Botanical Gardens(which will introduce you to the ecological diversity of Mobile as well).

Flowers are a sure mood lifter, so don’t miss the Festival of Camellias at Massee Lane Gardens in Fort Valley Georgia encompasses the entire month ofFebruary when camellia blooms are at their peak.(Something is out of placein this sentence.) ~ Here you will find nature reproduced so exquisitely you will sometimes reckon you are looking on a live bird or a blooming flower.

ATHENS GEORGIA: TASTE OF ATHENS

You get to sample all of the exotic restaurants Athens Georgia abounds in all under on roof and contribute to a excellent cause at the same time this February 23th. Any festival that brings all of these culinary delights together makes me pleased.

It looks like for David, happiness is scenery, and for Kathleen, it’s festivals.
