DESCRIPTION: We visited this place on our Quebec 2023 bus tour from shorttrips.ca. Upon arrival, we were greeted by their friendly staff and was guided to the maple syrup production room where we were presented the manufacturing process. Afterwards, we were treated with live music while our food is being cooked. Our musician was Danny Armstrong, an excellent violin player. It was like Scottish line dancing music that were played, so lively some can’t help but dance. This place was so clean when we visited it. Right outside the maple production room is a pavilion with tables. The tables were empty as we go to the restaurant, I wondered what it was for. While waiting for food, I took photos for this tour. We were served soup, beans, ham, bacon, coffee, tea and of course – maple syrup. Seen a couple added the maple syrup to their water. I tried it too and found out it was great drink – Cheers! :) After our meal, shopping time for most. They had lots of good stuff in their in-house souvenir shop. Just when I thought we were done, the best treat was served – the maple candies on stick! That was the first time I’ve tasted it, sure was glad we were allowed more than 1 serving :) Was told to eat it like candies but I tried to bite off chunks. Not a good idea as it was so elastic a thread (like spider web) stretches as I took out the stick – not good for your hair. So I just enjoyed it like lollipop. If you check out my virtual tour, you’ll see me with my empty stick just before boarding the bus. Overall an excellent Canadian experience – Cheers!

Virtual Tour: Niagara Falls – Mt Carmel Monastery

TYPE/LOCATION: Religious / Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada

VIRTUAL TOUR: (Swipe to look around, tap arrow to move, pinch to zoom)

LINK:
Portfolio – https://richardmhain.wordpress.com/vt_portfolio/
Home – https://richardmhain.wordpress.com/

DESCRIPTION: A monastery and a church where you can spend time if you want serene places or attend religious services. The church, the monastery and the Wine Boutique Shop are next to each other. There are parking lots in the front side close to the wine boutique.

There are more parking lots in the rear where there is also a spacious lawn with benches plus a view of the Niagara Falls from afar. There is a paved driveway with a gate for vehicle entrance but was closed as of this writing. In the footpath there is a Shrine of our Lord Jesus.

Just outside the gate are railways and a walking trail across the street. At the end of the trail, there is a paid parking facility where you can have a closer view of the Power Station and the Horseshow Falls. There is no shortcut to the attractions though, as it is divided by a steep slope with a sign that says: “DANGER – NO ACCESS…”. Need a longer walk around to get to the tourist attractions – a good exercise :)

NOTES:
My first Google Maps virtual tour published in 2023 :)
What’s new? Well, plan to add “Related Places” to virtual tour posts like this.
I took photos of the vicinity thinking they’re all in one Google Maps place.
Turned out – it was at least 3 places.

DESCRIPTION: A restaurant with awesome ambiance overlooking Delaney Bay, a must have restaurant to dine in if you’re in or passing by North Bay. You can check their menu and/or book an event from their website: https://averagejoes.net/. They have attraction I look forward to trying – boat rides they call “Boat Slips”. They also have enough parking lots and can accomodate maybe even up to three buses.
