O Canada!
I took Mommy and Daddy and some of our friends on a vacation to another country called Canada. The town we stayed in is called Whistler. Daddy says the Olympics will be there in 2 years. I asked if we can go back then but he said probably not. Party pooper.
Canada is a lot like America and less like Japan because people speak English in Canada and not Japanese.
In Canada, I also heard a little bit of French. In Canada, they also have quarters, dimes, and pennies, but the pictures are different on the coins. And the paper cash is a lot prettier than the boring green paper we have. In Canada, kids can drive, or at least pretend to.
In Canada, you can pick your nose.
You can eat onigiri rice balls for lunch (okay, so maybe it's a little like Japan too).
And best of all, you can go tubing! It's super fun. First you have to get an inner tube and then stand in line:
If you're small like me, the nice man lifts you up and plops you in the tube. He checks to make sure it's all clear down the track.
Then he pushes you down. Wheee!!!
Get out. Repeat!
We stayed at a cabin, which is like a house, but in the snow. This place was very big. 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. And a hot tub! I went in the hot tub every day. Here is a picture of our cabin. We took the picture from the Gondola lift that takes us up the mountain.
It was especially toasty after playing hard in snow building snowmen.
Next time, you should come to Canada with us!
