I have been focusing a lot over the last few months on traveling local. Staycations some may like to call them or day trips. Places we can visit with little to no travel and quite often not needing to even spend the night. Destinations that are budget friendly as well. There is so much to see and do within Canada we often take it granted. This beautiful country of ours hosts many visitors every month of every year from all over the world. They must be coming here for a reason, right?
Well I have reached out to my fellow Canadian bloggers and asked them to share their staycation posts. So no matter what province you live in, there should be a day trip or two you can check out yourself. If not, do not worry there will be more to come.

No matter what the season is, there is lots to do in Canada. Often just a short drive away. Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter there is something for everyone. Have you ventured out to your backyard lately and discovered a great hidden gem? Where do you go when you want to get away but are limited on time and money?
Wow, I need to bookmark this! So many great ideas (and thank for including my post on the Ottawa Museum of Nature!) 🙂
Great roundup – so much here! The new Ripleys Aquarium is definitely on my list. And thanks so much for including my posts!

I'm all about the staycations since I was on a flying ban towards the end of the pregnancy (and coz budget is tight!). We've been exploring Ontario to our hearts content! Love the round up!
I’ve never been to Canada, but have always wanted to. This was an awesome idea, thanks for sharing all of these awesome resources!
Those are really great pictures and locations. I love the first picture. Its like I’ve been on permanent staycation, mehn I need a vacation
This is a fantastic array of places to go. I already sent my hubby the post for Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls for our possible Xmas trip.
Thanks!

WOW I really want to go to some of these. Ive never been to Canada and its definitely on my list of places to visit.
We love the idea of staycations — once our little one is here, I cannot wait to start planning lots of trips in our area. If I ever go to Canada, I want to check out several of these!
I like the idea of staycations because often it means you get to enjoy wonderful places close to home.
