Toronto Zoo

We spent a (hot) day at the zoo with Robert and then went up the CN tower. Both were very good.

Niagra Falls


Took a hydrofoil from Toronto to the falls.
Very impressive.
Surrounding area is touristy but nice nonetheless.

Caribou


Andy, Stuart and Dominique.
Old Quebec.
Caribou : Hot Port and Gin.
Served from a bar made entirely of ice.
Warm cockles all around.

Never eat yellow snow

Lara and Dominique, Quebec City, Le Chateau Frontenac.

We had just been toboganning.

Boiling maple syrup.
Snow.
Stick.
Roll your own.
Bloody good.

Ice Hockey

On our second trip, we spent Christmas with Dominique's family.
This was her brother's (Christian) back garden. Every year he makes a hockey rink. I was happy just to have not fallen over which was quite remarkable considering the amount of alcohol consumed.

Toronto skyline


First visit to Canada.
Spent most of our time in Toronto.
Stayed with my Uncle Robert.
This was taken from Lake Niagra with the CN tower clearly visible.
