I just read the following article and am very surprised at this. Over the last 2 years, I have been on a Contiki tour at the very same campsite. Aussie backpacker found dead on Contiki tour | Sydney Morning Herald. The Seven Hills campsite was one of my favourites, it had the awesome showers in…
This week not only once but twice I found myself on foot crossing the Reversing Falls Bridge. (Well only one of the two times was my first.) i have always considered the “falls” to be something to get the tourists to see. I have seen the rapids from Fallsview Park many times but as you stand…
In the spirit of St. Valentine’s Day, why not a video of the romantic city of Venice, Italy.
So today has been freaking crazy. I woke up this morning pumped and excited to start the journey. I had a shower. The only reason I mention it was the fact that the hot water was broken and would not turn off, leaving me with a steam room. Then I caught the bus to the…
On the Contilki website it lists the travel from Canada day as day 1. As such I will start my travel log with today. So this morning I started packing and then when fitting stuff in the suitcase I realized 2 things. 1. I have never packed myself for a 3 week trip before. 2….
After twelve and a half long hours on a bus I have arrived in Montreal for WordCamp Montreal. This is my 5th WordCamp which I will do a post about sometime later. I took a walk earlier today and walked through the historic McGill University campus. One sweet sign that the orientation for the new…
I have been trying to post a lot more lately. But one thing that greatly concerns me us the lack of good comments lately. Practically everything on this site is open to commenting even the photos and the albums. What’s better is that if you see someone in a photo that you recognize you can…
As we progress into the year 2010, the only New Year’s resolution that I haven’t broken yet is my vow to only see 100 movies in the theatre this year (yet) I’m currently at number 10 as we speak, and I have my annual Toronto trip ahead of me next month, and the beautiful AMC…
At long last I have finally arrived in Victoria. Five hours on a plane is really long much longer that I had really imagined. During the longest lag of the journey I got to see “My Sister’s Keeper” for the first time. I found it to be really an enjoyable movie, in the respect that…
Over the weekend I rented a car and took my aunt Rena out to King’s Landing. While I was there I took this picture of the water pouring from a horse water feeder. This has got to be one of the best depth of field close-up pictures I have ever taken. I really like King’s…
Getting here to Montreal, I had decided to get the bus. (Orleans Express/Acadian Lines) Thus it presents this opportunity to write this long detailed encounter as I have the remainder of the 13 hour bus trip to finish. After arriving here in Montreal I took a nice stroll down Ste-Catherine to the train station. It…
