Summer Lovin'. Pics from Erie, Toronto, Niagara and Montreal

ERMAHGERD, I am back in my home turf, with my familiars and own pillow...

HEX IS BACK IN HER CITY!!!

Quite happy to be home yes, but had an amazing belated Honeymoon.

So this is two weeks worth of fun, and I am sure you don't want every detail of the entire time nor would I try and recollect the entire trip minute for minute.

So Instead I will just give you pictures with a description ovvvvvv cooouuuuurrrssssssssse

There are LOTS of pictures, I was a total camera champion!


WARNING: This is like a travel slideshow that keeps going on and on, lucky for you I'm not forcing you to see all the pictures, you can choose when you've had enough of my shenanigans.


1ST DAY- Outside of Dunville, on Lowbanks next to lake Erie.


Family time!





Some cute one's there of my cousin Drea, sister in law Leesh, the back of my uncle and my Grandma... and Matt in the background.


DINNER TIME!
Also Brian and Barry's birthday. Bertie may not be here in body but he is always in spirit.


Hanging out! Only Daley notices the camera!


The banks


SMORE'S TIME!
GIVE ME SMOREZZZ!!!
(And tequila)



SMORE!


Matty, ten minutes before he disappeared and went to crash.
Long day.


Beach fire.


In the bathroom in our cottage. 
Makes me feel so welcome.

I'M NAWT STOOBID, YEW STOOBID!!!


At Tawes Winery








The Black Mamba Decanter






Another winery, this one was built like a bunker in the side of a hill

There were a few more winery stops, but by then I was sauced and forgot to take pictures.


NOW ONTO NIAGARA FALLS!


On the way out there, the best vending machine EVER


OUR GLORIOUS FALLS!!!
ERMAHGERD!!!


The U.s Falls suck compared to ours BOOOSH


Love at the falls


Kisses at the falls


The edge- or shall I say THE FUCKING EDGE of the falls!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Crashing down and churning black angry water EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE






Pretending to be flying backwards off the edge of the falls


In these pics, I am pretending to take a picture of Matt but I was going for the Amish behind him, to steal their souls of course.



The little Amish boy looks fascinated by the Jimmy Buffet restaurant ad

TO TORONTO!




A couple of drunks, looking for a bar



FOUND ONE!


ANDDDDD YOU CAN SMOKE ON THE PATIO WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Long island ice teas.


Then we found another random bar, and about two shots of Jaimeson and a huge can of cider later we begin to question wether it was a gay bar or not... not like it matters... but there sure was A LOT of lesbians around...


In between rounds of hilarious hangman


Cruising down Queen we come apon this fellow- 
MR. DANIEL BENJAMIN BUXTON!
Who is this fellow?
You say-
Only Edmonton's Whyte avenue Army and Navy doorway busker extrodinaire, I danced to his version of Rasputin and the lesbian bar song at the tender age of 14, until I left at 18.
Now he's blowing up Queen street and I ran up and got a hug, and he remembered my name.
We felt like proud parents.


Drunken stumble to our beautiful hotel, Fairmont royal york!



So pretty.


NOW OFF TO UNION STATION TO BOARD THE TRAIN TO MONTREAL!!!



BEAUTIFUL MONTREAL, THE HOGE'S ARE HERE!!!


Our hotel! Nothing fancy, but it was clean with a microwave and air-conditioning, yeah baby!


We find our way to a Brasserie for some artisan beers and melted brie


I would drink beer more often if it tasted like that pint



All the beers were listed under each of The Seven Deadly Sins


WE FOUND FOU-FOUNES! 


Now this is what a rock bar should look like









Best bar table ever


The next day we do some hungover shopping then into Old Montreal


REST IN BEEF


OLD MONTREAL!!!


Canada's version of the Notre Dame Cathedral




A horse with a feed bucket on his face- I found that funny so of course I had to snap it





Next day- MOUNTAIN




After the climb to the top, to view the whole city

My honeypot at the top




THE BLACK WATCH









NOW, OUT FOR S'MORE PARTY!







We find ourselves back to Fou-Founes.
Check out how much the French make fun of the Queen.










My favourite- her majesty and squid face


Queen DEATH


LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL


TATTOO TIME at Voodoo ink on Rue St. Denis


MATCHING INK!!!


TIME TO FIND A PARTY


Let's kick it off by drinking bum style on a corner
We are so fucking Metal ERMAGERD


One of The Great Leonard Cohen's old hangouts


Great bathroom graffiti



ZOMG! We are back in Fou-Founes!



Big crazy Tiki guys




Yes. Yes this happens.



My honeylovebot bought me a rose awwwzz



Poker face



CREEPY TIKI GUY!



MORE ANGRY TIKI GUY!



Drunk as fuck, looking for a poutine




I found it! This was a MEDIUM, and I destroyed that son of a bitch.


I have way more pics, but it would get ridiculous if it already hasn't.
Overall, I'd have to say it was a wonderful and fun-filled honeymoon holiday that we won't soon forget. It was everything we wanted, and what we deserved!


The trip home was awful though.
18 hours, 3 planes, a cancelled flight, many delays and a missing bag in Edmonton, and then once we got this bag back Matt's brand new Knife made by my Uncle Brian WAS FUCKING STOLEN.


So to end this entry on an angry note, 
FUCK AIR CANADA!
