Today was been such a beautiful day spending time at High Park admiring the beautiful Cherry Blossoms. This year, the trees were blossoming more but unfortunately there were a lot more people. In addition, the weather channel said that it would be raining tomorrow so everyone were flocking into the park so they could get a glimpse before everything was ruined.
Anyway, I am going to Ottawa for the Tulip Festival tomorrow. I may not be able to upload the vlogs the next few days unless the hotel wifi is very fast. If it's slow, then I will do what I did last time and just do a quick update blog post for that day.
So today we were going to go to High Park to look at the Cherry Blossoms but because we arrived too late... there were too many people and the time was not right as the sun was above our head (this made it difficult to take pictures). So instead, we went to Eaton Centre to do a tiny bit of shopping and just wander around Downtown.
After a one hour drive home due to rush hour traffic, we had to quickly get dressed to go to a charity gala; Mother's Day Celebration by Carefirst (A non-profit organization for seniors). I also had to perform a dance with my mom and a few other people (Tip: stay till the end of the video to see me dance).
Anyway hope you enjoy this video and I have to wake up in a couple of hours to go to High Park again.
So today we went to the zoo and saw a lot of really cool things. First of all, we got to see the panda actually walking around, and then we got to see the grizzly bear, lion and giraffe being fed. The weather was also really nice so that means it wasn't very hot but not too cold... the weather was just right.
However, I feel like the song in the video doesn't really fit the theme of today's adventure... so I will also link the video I made last year when I went to the zoo as well just for your viewing pleasure!
ROARRRRRRR. Finn was actually very quiet and being a good boy.

The previous three photos are taken by Woo Soo! I really like the one with me petting the goat.
"Dear Yee Ma,
I hope you had an amazing day today and I hope that you are happy with your decision to spend your birthday in Canada! I wish you will have a good and healthy life forever.
- Sam"
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed today's vlog... it is quite an intimate one because I spoke more cantonese than my usual vlogs. In addition, it included a few more special moments than usual.
Hopefully I will be able to upload my haul video (Showcasing what I got from the shopping trip) in a couple of days.... when I find time to edit the video before leaving for our next trip.
Here's a couple of photos I took on my vintage Polaroid Camera... also I only had 4 polaroids left so I couldn't take more... even if I wanted to.
Sorry... I won't be able to post today's vlog as the internet in this hotel is too slow. It was literally going to take 200 minutes and that was if I let my laptop stay on the entire night... and I didn't want to do that.
Therefore I hope these photos will be able to satisfy your hunger for my blog until I get home tomorrow to upload the vlog. So... you will be able to get two videos on one day!
This is my favourite picture I took the entire trip... it has a rainbow, a seagull and a waterfall in one picture!
And this picture has ice in the foreground and the two falls in the background!
Today was spent getting everything ready for tomorrow's road trip to the States. Most importantly was getting all the snacks prepared because a road trip isn't complete without the snacks.
After that we went on an evening walk to digest some of the food we ate and these are a few pictures I was able to quickly take on our walk.
(Look at us all holding all our snacks!)
(And look at the beautiful sky. The moon is so pretty this evening!)
