As this is my first ever blog post, I thought I would post something that has to do with travel/roadtrips which is what this blog is about!Recently, my cousin S and I took a road trip down to the medivale fair at Upper Canada Village, less than a couple of hours from Ottawa. We had quite the time actually getting there, but to our disappointment, it wasn't as festive and exciting as we thought it would be. There WAS jousting (we saw the second round that day) and a man dressed like Jack Sparrow, but other than that it was pretty much a big field with tents of jewlery and puppets everywhere.
After spending a couple of hours at the fair (half dying from lack of shade, half wondering whether we should go back and buy those pirate coins we saw before)
, we made a slight detour and went to visit the homies down at the Ogdensburg Wal*Mart. I, myself, am not a huge fan of the Wal*Mart corporation, nor of their treatment towards employees, but there are some awesome deals there (including poptarts that are unavaliable in Canada)!

The entire day after the Medivale fair was pretty much planned to be chalk full of events in order to waste time before picking my father up from the airport. It ended up being the best roadtriping day we've had in a while, and was dutifully added to our family memories (yes, we keep track of stupid inside jokes we have *see title*) as a huge success.
See you next time I feel up to blogging!
Don't forget to be awesome!
