5 MUST- SEE

CANADIAN PLACES to satisfy your Wanderlust this Fall

E 10

• LU X U RY LI S TE D MAG AZINE

ven though summer has come to an end, it’s primetime to travel off the beaten path and explore some of our nation’s hidden gems. Luckily, Canada is home to some of the most amazing lakes, rivers and wildlife, and it’s all waiting to be discovered by you. >>>

GROS MORNE NATIONAL PARK

Venture to the west coast of Newfoundland to a spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Site: Gros Morne National Park. Stretching across 1,805 square kilometres, it is also Atlantic Canada’s second largest national park. If you’re planning to take a trip to one of Canada’s top hiking destinations, a good pair of hikers can go a long way. Sturdy, well ventilated boots will give you the comfort and traction you need for visiting the coastlines, scaling mountain summits and watching whales and seabirds.

WINERIES OF ONTARIO

Ontario is home to some of Canada’s best wineries.

Whether it’s Niagara-on-the-Lake or lesser-known Prince Edward County, these wineries have been touted as home of some of Canada’s best wines and ice wines. Put on some Denver Hayes Perfectly Pressed Pants and a Never Iron Dress Shirt and you’re ready to enjoy these wine appellations.

WEST COAST STORM WATCHING

Experience the power of nature’s lashing waves and galeforce winds during a west coast fall along the rugged Pacific Coast. Enjoy the thrill of storm watching up close in Tofino and watch waves reach heights of 10 to 12 metres. Don’t forget to bring your rubber boots and throw some packable waterproof pants in your bag and enjoy the splash. >>>

LUX URY LI ST E D MAGA ZINE •

POLAR BEARS AND NORTHERN LIGHTS

Fall is primetime for catching a glimpse of a polar bear or the stunning Northern Lights in Churchill, Manitoba. Stay cozy under your rugged outerwear layers – bring some knit jeans which have cutting edge technology that combines the durability of jeans with the comfort of a fleece pant. On top, grab a hoodie which can withstand temperatures as cool as – 15 degrees Celsius. You’ll be ready for anything Mother Nature throws your way.

ICE FISHING

Take advantage of some of Canada’s best ice holes on Slave Lake in Alberta. Don’t worry if you’re new to the sport, you can get a local guide to help you catch walleye, pike and perch. Stay cozy in your ice shack with a T-Max Heat Jacket, thermal pants and heated boots.

oliday meals, while a joy to eat, are often time-consuming.

This season, enlist the help of the whole family and see how quickly time will fly when everyone’s having fun.

Here’s how to get the little ones excited to help: >>>

SHOP TOGETHER

Bring the family to the grocery store. Create games challenging the kids to find the ingredients. What used to be a drag will now be a fun shopping trip.

ALLOW THE MESS

SHARE THE TABLE

Put cell phones and devices away and be present as you create memories with the ones you love.

Prep together, cook together and eat together, then #ShareTheTable experience online at www.barilla.ca. >>>

Let the kids be kids. Anticipate spills, messes and accidents. Children are more inclined to eat dishes they have helped create, so kick back, enjoy, and make a game out of cleaning up.

Ask for opinions.

Create the menu together.

The kids will be excited to make foods they love.

dvancements in digital technology over the years mean that almost anyone can own a home theatre, a music room, or build a recording studio in their home. When you’re planning your project, there are a number of elements that will make the difference between good and great sound. >>>

Just as in real estate, location is crucial, so finding the best space within your home will be vital. You want to find a place that will provide ample room, comfortable temperatures and easy access. A room with windows is fine, as long as they are double glazed, sealed correctly and don’t open. Be sure to install a heavy, well-insulated door to prevent sound leakage.

Insulating properly is among the most critical steps in creating an ideal sound experience. Many professionals recommend Safe ‘n’ Sound insulation produced by Canadian manufacturer Roxul. Specially designed for your home’s interior walls, ceilings and floors to reduce the transfer of noise from one room to another, this high-density stone wool insulation provides an excellent acoustic barrier that effectively absorbs sound. Its non-directional fibre structure, composition, density, and friction-fit prevent any gaps and combat airborne noise such as music, speech and foot traffic. >>>

LUX URY LI ST E D MAGA ZINE •

Sound can often echo and reverberate. Certain sound dampening measures such as carpeting might help alleviate the problem or you can purchase acoustic panels to prevent sound reflections throughout your room. With basic DIY skills, you can also simply and affordably construct your own acoustic panels using stone wool rigid board called Comfortboard IS, which is effective at reducing the intensity and propagation of noise.

Insulating properly will help achieve optimal sound quality. It will also allow you to get the most of your space without disturbing the rest of your family or neighbours. All that’s left is to turn up those tunes. www.newscanada.com
