Road Trip 2012

Sean and I decided to take a mini trip to Toronto and back. We got 4 days in July to make this happen.

There isn't much to plan, just gotta make sure my passport is up to date.

Our game plan is :


Day 1: Finger Lakes. We're gonna do some backpacking here, looks like only for one day. We'll leave pretty early so that we have a full day to hike a good trail and find a good spot in the back country to camp.


Day 2: From the Finger Lakes, we'll go to Niagara Falls. There, we'll camp somewhere, do some boat tour & get on the Niagara Skywheel.

Day 3: Niagara Falls to Toronto. In Toronto, we've booked a hotel for the night. We're looking to go up the CN tower & Toronto brags about the microbrew bars, so we'll definitely have to check those out.

Day 4: Toronto to NJ. And for me, I'll have to drive another 3 hours home to MD in order to work Monday.

I'm super excited for this trip. We're trying to swing it for $300 a person. Though, I expect it to be over $400 with the tours. It'll be interesting to see how conservative we can be this time around.

I'm really excited to do some more backpacking. I wanna get to the point where I'm really comfortable          with my camping skills, and I'll be comfortable doing solo trips.

Cheers,
