My grandparents and uncles on my mom’s side of the family live in Canada. I don’t get to see them that often because the trip to Canada is not a cheap one, so we try to see them when we can. The last time I went was two years ago a week before Christmas, and I stayed over into the New Year. I boarded my first plane at ATL airport, the ride was about four hours. After that I stopped in Minneapolis and from there I took another plane to finish my trip to Calgary. I always get a sense of excitement when I go because I like being outside of what is familiar and routine. Visiting Canada you have a lot of entertainment options.

The zoo puts up a bunch of colorful lights in all shapes and forms and animals that turn the zoo into a winter wonderland. The whole thing was outside so it is very cold. I was bundled up in a big coat, scarf, hat and gloves. After a while we decided to rest and warm up, so we stop at the café area. My uncle ordered us something of the menu called poutine. It is a type of food made of fries, gravy, and cheese. I skeptical about eating it at first because it didn’t look that appealing, but when I tried it, it was the best thing ever.
On my last night visiting there is a place called Laser Quest where you can go and play laser tag. After you sign up and they explain the game you go into the ‘weapon room’ where you put on a vest along with the special gun, then they release us into the maze. When you enter the whole pace is lit with black lights and neon colors splashed on the walls and floors along with different painting also in neon. The maze was three whole of the building. I beat both my uncles in one game and that was my best part of the whole trip.
I would love to live in Canada someday so I can see what life is like somewhere else. I have lived in The United States all my life and the only states I have been in are Alabama and Georgia. I would love the change of scenery and culture just to take a break from my life
