Just a FYI, Niagara is only an hour away (traffic free), it's like driving to maple ridge but smoother.
Montreal - la banquise (poutine)
Saint-Viateur bagels
Maple taffy on snow
Schwartz's
Mont Royal
Bike down the canal, (I went to some abandoned building) it's pretty neat along the trail
NYC - Katz's Delicatessen (I kid you not, it's amazing)
Cheesecake
Empire State and all the touristy stuff
I'll post more when I think of more places

Sorry we haven't been able to update the thread, we've been spending 95 percent of our time out of the apartment unless we're sleeping. We're having loads of fun! In NYC right now.
Ottawa was good, the weather took a turn for the worse there however we still enjoyed the National War Museum and the Parliament building, also sat in on a parliament seating for a bit to see our country's leaders at work. A lot of things in Ottawa just made us proud to be Canadian. Just thinking back on what we saw and the sacrifices people made just so that we can live free in Canada makes me emotional.
Montreal was great, we were there for F1 weekend but didnt actually go to the grand prix. We joined in the festivities. It was still a bit rainy weather but thanks to the amazing subway system and the underground city we stayed mostly dry. We ate poutine (picture below) at La Banquise, I spent a lot of time on Rue Saint-Catherines walking up and down, it was my favorite rue (street), lol. Learned some french, and was able to order a meal and ask for the bill in french by the time we left. We also found a place called Al and Ju on Rue Saint-Catherines which was a highlight of our trip (picture below, you'll see why). Even the person we asked to take the picture could not contain themselves from laughter.
SFW Pic, be ready to LMFAO when opened. lol.
Boston was Boston, we just drove around the city saw the MIT campus and such, we were planning on spending the day there walking around however the rain didn't allow this to happen.
We arrived in NYC a couple nights ago and it's pretty much been go go go here. Our apartment is only one block away from Times Square! I will give the full detail after we leave but we've already done so much in this beautiful city. Central park is amazing and huge! (pic below). Top of the Rock gave us an amazing view of the city, those pictures I will add later. Shopping in Times Square and Madison Ave and 5th Ave. A lot of shopping has been done and is yet to be done in this city. We're hoping to catch a show tomorrow if everything works out. Eating out of street carts and another story Henry will tell friends if he chooses too, lol. In person just ask him about the chicken rice. That's all for now, on our way to brunch then Lower Manhattan.

Sorry I haven't updated this thread yet. I have just uploaded pictures onto facebook so if you are added on mine you can check it out. Just give me a couple days and I'll have this thread updated with our adventure.
For those who don't know we returned back on June 26 2013. Wish we stayed away longer.
