Moments in Kingston

Kingston is a city that took me by surprise. It's a pearl of Canadian history and architecture worth paying a visit. The former Canadian capital is the home of Canada's first prime minister John A. MacDonald and it's the perfect gateway to the '1000 islands' of Lake Ontario...

Kingston • #tstMoment Time for some more #Ontario updates!  From the current capital, #Ottawa, I made my way to #Kingston, the old capital of Canada and also the home of the very first prime minister of Canada: John A. Macdonald.  It's located where the Saint Lawrence River flows into Lake Ontario and has thousands of little Islands right outside the harbor.  A place rich on history and beautiful nature. I'll share some pics and stories from my time there next ;-) ••• Currently updating from Edmonton.

Islands on the lake • #tstMoments  A bit off the shore of #Kingston on Lake Ontario there are lots of pretty tiny Islands to explore. I shot this picture from a ferry boat that takes you for free to one of the bigger Islands. A tip I got via Twitter :-) ••• Currently updating from Edmonton.

Captured • #tstMoments  Remember that 'Powerful Sunset' picture that I posted earlier?  Here I'm caught in the act by 'La Fille Voyage' :-). Definitely check out her beautiful blog.  She combines amazing drawing with epic travel photography.  One talented girl! • #tstCanada with @OntarioTravel & @explorecanada • #DiscoverON #ExploreCanada • #SocialTravel #Travel #Canada #Ontario • #Sunsets #NaturePhotography •
