Love is in the air, from coast to coast. We celebrate Valentine’s Day with gifts of roses, chocolate and handwritten love notes. But to seal the deal, a kiss says it all. Make it special at these beloved sites:
Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON:
On a snowy day, take a tour through the streets of this historic, pretty town-dotted with Victorian and Georgian buildings-via horse-drawn sleigh (available through Sentineal Carriages Inc.). Cuddle up with someone special, then warm your toes by the fireplace at a cozy bed and breakfast. For more, go to: www.ontariotravel.net.
Inn on the Lake, near Whitehorse, YT:
In the sky, the light dances in shades of blue and green. Best viewed in the winter, it’s the natural phenomenon known as the Northern Lights or aurora borealis. At this luxurious inn, take a seat in the outdoor hot tub and soak up the magic. For more, go to: www.travelyukon.com.
Julie’s Pond, Halifax, NS:
A heart-shaped pond in Hemlock Ravine Park pays homage to Julie St. Laurent, the French mistress of Prince Edward, Duke of Kent.
