We visited Niagara Falls on a previous trip, and found it hard to believe that - coming from the world's driest continent as we do - there is so much water on the planet!

KT, the autumn colours is why we are going at that time of year. Himself made noises about going in summer but Toronto's fearsome humidity would do for me, I'm afraid.....besides which, Oz just doesn't have fall colours like Canada's beauty. I think there is only one native Ozzie tree which is deciduous, all others are evergreen.

Mooh, we're looking forward to visiting Goderich again! It's a lovely town, and the colours along the Maitland River were gorgeous last time. We were curious about the big white house on the hill, overlooking the river - is it a private home?
