Josh’s Journey: Part 11

From Josh: July 16, 2021 Last week we moved on from Niagara Falls and made our way to Emerald Lake, a combination campground & waterpark about an hour west of Toronto & used it as a base to explore the Toronto area. Many of the famous attractions were closed, but we spent a day just […]

While much of what […]
