Niagara-on-the-Lake

After our white water walk in Niagara Falls, we took a detour on our way to Oakville and headed to the beautiful little town of Niagara-on-the-Lake.
This wonderful place is home to many vineyards, the Shaw festival, the Trish Romance Gallery and the Niagara Apothecary. Mike and I have visited many times and both just love to shop and sight see in the little town.
Being a pharmacist, the Niagara Apothecary is close to my heart as all classes from the Faculty of Pharmacy at the University of Toronto had a school trip to this historic place in their first year of school. My children however were unimpressed. The only way we could get them to bear with us as we toured and shopped was the promise of a visit to the bakery. The chocolate chip cookie and cinnamon bun that we found made their wait worthwhile!!
