Wij zijn zo verliefd geworden op de vriendelijkheid, netheid en schoonheid van de natuur en de mensen . Niets was te veel . Wij komen zeker terug . Hier kunnen wij in België nog iets van leren !!! Vorm van verwarming in de grote leefruimte . Was bij momenten in de avond tijdens de periode dat wij er waren zeer koud ( juli ) . Voor de rest een 10 op 10 . Dank je wel voor de geweldige ervaringen en vakantie . Tot zeer snel . ##### Saskia ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Great Canadian Casino Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Hard-Rock-Casino-Vancouver-Hotels.0-l6212020-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Polokwane](https://www.expedia.ca/Polokwane-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Polokwane.h17771611.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Atlanta](https://www.expedia.ca/Atlanta-Hotels-Hilton-Atlanta.h7909.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [The Maq Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tofino-Hotels-The-Maq-Hotel.h7033681.Hotel-Information) > > [Thorn & Feather (Vermaaklikheid)](https://www.expedia.ca/Vermaaklikheid-Hotels-Thorn-Feather.h61102048.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Saint John Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Saint-John-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Saint-John-Hotel-Suites.h2174367.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in City Centre Glasgow](https://www.expedia.ca/City-Centre-Glasgow-Glasgow-Hotels.0-n6129620-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Rivière-du-Loup](https://www.expedia.ca/Riviere-Du-Loup-Hotels.d6136941.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Mafigeni Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Gravelotte-Hotels-Mafigeni-Safari-Lodge.h3954755.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Whitefish](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitefish-Hotels.d1199.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to Portland (PWM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/pwm/detroit-to-portland) > > [Flights from Grande Prairie (YQU) to Comox (YQQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqu/yqq/grande-prairie-to-comox) > > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Vienna (VIE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/vie/frankfurt-to-vienna) > > [Flights from Kelowna (YLW) to Revelstoke (YRV)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ylw/yrv/kelowna-to-revelstoke) > > [Flights from Cozumel (CZM) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/czm/yyz/cozumel-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Fort Nelson (YYE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/yye/abbotsford-to-fort-nelson) > > [Flights from Tel Aviv (TLV) to Amsterdam (AMS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/tlv/ams/tel-aviv-to-amsterdam) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yyc/toronto-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Manila (MNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/mnl/vancouver-to-manila) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Grand Canyon (GCN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/gcn/winnipeg-to-grand-canyon) ### Packages ### General > [Visit Yaletown](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Yaletown.dx6155897)
