4 Canadian spots recommended by the New York Times this Summer

In its "The 31 Places to Go This Summer" featured article, The New York Times acknowledges that the summer of 2008 "is starting out like a cruel joke, with air travel increasingly a nightmare and with wildly escalating gas prices threatening to make the road trip all but obsolete..." however, "there is no reason to forgo it this year. It will just take a bit of creativity — and perhaps the willingness to stay a little closer to home this time around — to pull it off in 2008."

4 Canadian destinations made it to the Times recommendations: Niagara-on-the-Lake, Quebec City (400th Anniversary), Montreal (Jazz Festival) and Manitoba (specifically Northern Soul Wilderness Adventures).
-
Ironically Toronto is Not among the four spots that the New York Times editors recommend for a vacation this summer. I find it ironic because page 5 of this weekend's travel section is a full page ad for Toronto (seetorontonow.com). Maybe next time.
