Final blog post (until the next trip...) So on our final full day, Thursday, the temperature dropped to a balmy minus 19 degrees! We managed a walk up to the mountain (hill) opposite our room which gave a lovely view over Huntsville but it was then too cold to venture out of the room in the afternoon. We had a final night out in Huntsville in the evening - it's been the perfect end to the trip. On Friday we took a longer drive route back to Toronto airport an...

Brrrrrrr hello all from a very snowy, cold Huntsville!

Well hello and welcome back to upside down photos! So, we had a great flight over with West Jet and were very impressed by the service, movie choices and great food. We got to Toronto mid afternoon and arrived at our apartment for 3 nights, first night we were wiped out with the time difference, even though it's only 5 hours so were early to bed. The apartment was really great, right in the heart of Downtown just a few steps to the CN Tower (which we had a great...
