Hi, long time no see! I've gone travelling to Algonquin Park and Otawa. We rent a car and stayed at a motel and a youth hostel. And the total cost was just 200, incredible price! Of course we enjoyed our time very much.
Firstly, we rent the car(Toyota カローラ), and went shopping for some stuffs and alcohol. In Canada, the liquor shops are just two chain stores, and no discount, it means they are too conservative about drinking alcohol, and smoking in pub is also prohibited, so my friends miss smoking with alcohol...
Then, we started driving to Algonquin Park, it took about 4 hours. Algonquin park is the large national park, there are huge forests, lakes, and a lot of wild animals. Firstly we went around the park by car and enjoy the sight, which was beautiful, fresh, fantastic. And then we chose one of hiking courses, and start hiking. However, there were many & big mosquitos! Damn it! We had to walk fast, so actually we couldn't enjoy hiking well. And we also couldn't see a wild animal, it's a pity... But we could see a beautiful lake, and took a rest at there.
After hiking, we went to a motel, it was my first time to stay in a motel. We were 4 people, and we were suppose to sleep at 2 semi-double beds in one room...with girl! but here is in Canada, who cares? No problem...perhaps. At first, we tried to do BBQ, but equipments of BBQ were too dirty, so we had to give up it. In stead of it, we went to restaurant. I ate a wine stew, and enjoyed pool & darts.
At the motel, we had a party and watch the EURO 2004. Somebody was dissapointed with losing of France. We stayed up late at night until 2, and went to bed.
