If you're looking for a nice, relaxing yoga class that's really accessible for beginners, Kaija's…read moreKripalu classes are just perfect. I started going to Kaija's classes about two years ago after being told by my physiotherapist that I had to take up yoga. I'd done yoga years and years ago, but had pretty much spent the last three years sitting around on my ass in front of the computer for 16 hours a day. I was not used to physical activity and I wasn't exactly fit, so the prospect of going to a yoga class was kind of intimidating. I started out by going to a week of free yoga classes that Kaija was running during a Hearts in the Park event. Hearts in the Park is geared toward older folks, so I figured if there was any place for me to start, it was this (if it's relaxed enough for the seniors surely I could manage.) I had a great experience here, so I signed up for a once a week class with Kaija. She's a great instructor - she just exudes positivity and good energy, is very pleasant and relaxing to be around and really makes yoga accessible to anyone. Class sizes are small - the room can accommodate maybe... 12 people? but the class I was in generally ranged from 4 - 6, sometimes as many as 8, but rarely more than that. The class I was in was almost all women, mostly in their 40s and 50s, of all different experience levels, plus a scattering of younger people, so it was never intimidating. The class is a low impact, very relaxing class. Lots of soft, relaxing music, a good amount of meditation, easy warm up and it's all very flexible and easy going. Kaija will often tailor the class to what everyone feels like doing that day (everyone want a 20 minute final relaxation? Sure, no problem!) Kaija also incorporates some qigong into her classes on occasion. Lots of focus on integrating body, mind and spirit. The studio is really pleasant and comfortable. As I mentioned, it's small - one room, with a storage room across the hall for coats & equipment. Laminate flooring, large windows, spring green walls and nice artwork (paintings of nature, chakra posters, paintings of Om, crystal bowls, stuff like that.) It has a very comfortable community feel to it. While Kaija's classes are a great place for beginners to start, they're also suitable for more experienced people. You can push yourself as far as you want and there's no lack of benefit for those who have been doing yoga for a while. Best to bring your own mat, but the studio does provide mats, blankets, cushions, blocks, eye pillows, exercise balls, water and cups for no additional charge if you show up without your own stuff. Bathrooms are shared with the rest of the building and are clean and well maintained.

After checking out of our hotel in Thunder Bay, knowing we were in for a LONG day of driving, we…read morewanted to start off with a leg stretch & falls. This was a relatively close option & was recommended. There is a charge. You choose your duration, with rates based on time: 2hrs, 4hrs, all day We opted for 2hrs at about $6USD, after conversion. There are several paths with boardwalk and viewing platforms. You can view the falls in a matter of minutes, with minimal walking, or put a fair amount steps on the clicker, if you so desire, with the other trails available. If you just want a good view of the falls & some pics, 2hrs is ample time. If you want a better stretch without a full day, 4hrs should do ya. The parking lot is large, plenty of spaces & restrooms The falls are pretty amazing & definitely worth a stop

I'm really surprised Kakabeka Falls only has 2 reviews. It's deserving of some better recognition…read more And...lol, I guess that's why I'm here today, to share in the experience. Alright well, Kakabeka Falls is actually a provincial park located on the outskirts of Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. If you're making the 150-mile North Shore Scenic Drive up Minnesota's eastern coast, you'll eventually encounter the border with Canada and if you have a passport, you might as well gain entry and make the 38-mile drive north here. I had a pretty high outlook for Kakabeka Falls, and it didn't 100% fulfill my expectations. During my research, I had read that the 131-foot waterfall is known as the "Niagra of the North". So...I assumed that it'd be similar to Niagara Falls, but...this is just one specific waterfall, (majestic to some degree) that's viewed from a few different observation areas. There's not much to the park other than short hiking trails in nature and a campground. While in comparison, Niagara Falls is one of the great world destinations with an abundance of exploring options. You can use multiple days to admire the magnitude of such an iconic landmark. Although I expected a lot more from Kakabeka Falls, coming to see this with a clear and open mind, overall, I still found it impressive and would recommend it to outdoor and waterfall enthusiasts, lol. There are 3 forms for visiting. You can pay for times... - 2 hour visit - 4 hour visit - All day visit Kakabeka Falls sits right beside the entrance/parking lot so you don't need the entire day to see it. I paid for the 4-hour option which was $8 Canadian or around $6 US. I also purchased a souvenir magnet for $2 as well. There's a boardwalk pathway that navigates around the falls. All you have to do is casually stroll it. It takes 20 - 30 minutes to walk. And just stop at your own accord when you feel like taking a picture. This is the main highlight/feature of the park. For those wanting more hiking/exploring time, here were 3 paths recommended to me by the park ranger... - Mountain Portage Trail - 1.1 km loop - Little Falls Trail - 2.5 km loop - Poplar Point Trail - 3.8 km loop There's also a campground inside the park. They accept travelers with and without reservations. I'd also like to point out the setting. I visited yesterday for the early part of June and the surroundings were perfect. It wasn't hot or humid and simply stopping at different points on the Boardwalk Path to appreciate the sights was worth the small price of admission. Lastly, looking away from the falls was scenic. The river flows down in between a rugged valley gorge and when you're standing high above along the boardwalk path, it makes for special views. Kakabeka Falls can be categorized as an under the radar attraction located just north of the US/Canada border. It's not difficult to access and having time to appreciate a beautiful waterfall backdrop is a winning formula, from my pov.

His name lives on in many forms, be it the annual Terry Fox charity run or the number of buildings and monuments erected in his honour. This is one of the finest ones I've seen. What makes this monument so grand is the placement. It lies mere feet from the point where his journey was cut short, making it one of the most fitting, poignant, and gripping monuments dedicated to Terry Fox.

I learned that day that she was not only from Thunder Bay, but that there was a giant. And apparently he nods off from time to time. So, I figured, heck, when in Rome... This being Thunder Bay, however, I elected on going to look at a rock that looked like a snoozing Goliath. One of the best vantage points is Marina Park. Right on the shore of Lake Superior, you're able to walk the length of the park right by the water, taking in the boats moored on the pier, or if so inclined, you can use the skateboard park that's available. I didn't. Being on the west side of Lake Superior, you can well imagine that sunrises here would be fantastic. Of course, there's the Sleeping Giant. As soon as I saw it, I knew what she meant. I saw the head, the body, the whole thing that looks like a big guy taking a nap. My buddies that were with me saw nothing but rocks. But that's okay. They suck at Magic Eye as well. And have no imagination.
