Hamilton

If you really want to know what the vibe of Hamilton is like, be sure to check out a Hamilton Ticats football game. The Canadian Football League has different rules than the National Football League in the US. However, the CFL game is very exciting, and Hamilton has some of the most passionate fans in the league. The team does a good job of keeping things family friendly, too, with the highlight being a play area in the stadium, for little ones to run and climb on. #hamilton #ontario #canada #football #familyfun #kidsfun
During the month of December in Hamilton, a ferris wheel is set up in Gore Park. You can ride it for free, and get a nice view of downtown. If you're out and about in the area with the family, it makes for a nice little treat for the kids (and you can't beat the price)! #hamilton #ontario #canada #ferriswheel #views #cityviews #kidsfun

A safari experience in Ontario, Canada with unexpected delights! You can either use the Safari Tour Bus or drive around in your own vehicle to see over 1000 exotic birds and animals including a magnificent pride of lions. Love watching the elephants march in a line for a swim twice a day; bird and other shows; boat cruise, and a wet play area for the kids. #OntarioCanada #Safari #zoo #exoticanimals #Wildlife
