Niagara Falls

So I finally managed to see Niagara Falls. Too bad that the weather actually wasn't all that good. I went to see it with "Jojo Tours", and we were three people all in all. Funny, hm? Two girls from Australia were with me, young and innocent and very quiet.
Before seeing the falls, we went to see Niagara-on-the-Lake, a small town about half an hour away from the falls.
At the falls themselves, we did both the "Journey behind the Falls", which is basically not more than a pair of tunnels behind the tunnels, lots of noise and rumbling and water pouring down, and the "Maid of the Mist" boat tour, which turned out to be pretty wet, and the forces of the water were incredible.
At the end of the falls tour, we went to see Clifton Hill, a street very nearby that's called "Tacky Town", because it's so incredibly over the top. Just check Frankenburger, how bad is THAT?! :)

So here you go with the pictures.

Visit to Lucid and more pictures at night

The currently second biggest nightclub in Toronto is called "Lucid", and thanks to Brenda and Tony I was able to see it and take a pile of pictures of it. Have a look! Isn't that a great nightclub?

On my way home I took some pictures of Yonge Street and the St John Cemetery. You'll find the pictures at the end of the Lucid gallery.

Apart from that, MAKE BUNNY FOR HAPPY TIME!

Online via hotspot for the first time

For the first time I took my laptop downtown and used a hotspot to go online. Funny enough, I'm sitting in a starbucks store on Church Street in Toronto, which has no hotspot of its own, but there are around 5 unsecured hotspots around that we all here can use. So...we do. :)

Of course I watched demos here, and some people must have seen them. I've been talked to about them, and obviously people have never seen anything like them.

I also bought a new little pair of JVC headphones. They're sweet and have a great dynamic, even block some noise from outside. The only thing that's bothering me now are the two girls sitting next to me who have these intensive voices that get on my nerves a lot. For some reason, North American girls have a much more penetrating way to babble. :)

Three new galleries

Okay, I haven't been very eager updating my blog in the past days, but now here goes.

Gallery 1: Castro Street Fair in San Francisco
This street fair is not quite as big as Folsom, but more relaxed and very nice to see as well. Just the weather could've been a lot nicer. The clouds dove the whole day into an odd shine of grey, and when the fog rolled in around 4pm (as it usually does), Brian and I had to seek shelter in a café eventually and have something warm to drink.

Gallery 2: My flight back to Toronto
It might sound boring to you, and the first pictures of the airport show how boring the weather was, but when you see the pictures I took out of my airplane window, you'll see why it was worth asking the old couple next to me to stand up so I could get my camera out of my bag.

Gallery 3: My fifth stroll in Toronto
This time I paid attention to artsy things like sun reflections in skyscraper windows and other appearances that appealed to me. The sun gives situations and places a fantastic shine and glow in the mornings and afternoons these days.

Wishing you a good evening, I'll get back to work and write all the emails that are left to write after my San Francisco trip.

Golden Gate: Park and Bridge

It probably doesn't come as a surprise for you that I went to see the Golden Gate Park and Bridge, does it? Well, here are the pictures. :)
