Trip of Atlantic Canada

　　My daughter has been eager to stay abroad and learn English during her summer vacation since her admission to university. She earned enough money tutoring some high school students or working in a restaurant as a waitress. The destination which she chose was Toronto. It's because there were fewer Japanese in Toronto rather than on the West Coast or western Canada such as Vancouver. She was going to fly into Toronto by herself at first, but her grandfather was afraid that she might be involved in some accidents on the way and told me to take her to her homestay destination. This is the commencement of this trip.
　　I chose Air Canada AC002 which would start at 5:20 PM every day from Narita International Airport. To reach the airport from my hometown, you have to travel to Tokyo International Airport firstly, and next travel to Narita International Airport by bus or train. It takes about one hour. Even if we left about noon, we could make it on time, but we set out for Tokyo International Airport on the first flight in the morning to spend half a day in Tokyo.
　　My eldest daughter, who lives in Tokyo, welcomed us at the airport. We dropped in at the Tokyo Skytree, which is the 634 meter-high broadcasting tower and was completed this spring. Then we visited Naritasan-Shinshoji Temple to get charms to protect daughters from everything bad.
　　The picture shows our lunch, broiled eels on rice, which is the speciality around Naritasan-Shinshoji Temple.

Dear Travis

Don't feel bad! I'm really grateful.

[Travis]

I feel a bit bad that I am commenting on all of these older posts, but being from Atlantic Canada (New Bruswick though, not PEI), I am very interested in learning about your experiences.

I am looking forward to hear more of your trip to Canada. Delicious food is always a good way to start a journey.
