DIY hotdogs! rows of different sauces for you to put on your hotdog *yum*
statue of Terry Fox
the top of the buildings are designed like castle tops. beautiful isn't it?

I love the buildings in Montreal. They are so old, grand and beautiful

See the lady in the hat? She's a member of the Falungong. She was displaying pictures of abuses committed by the government towards the members of Falungong as a form of publicitycan you see the flame in the water? amazing isn't it?
it took alot of patience for me to capture this picture. I had to wait for the butterfly to open its wings and take a shot before it closes




these silly birds were crossing the roads as though their grandfather owns it



some performance by the native red indians



fruits! our breakfast at the restaurant at thousand island




these pictures are of the thousand island, a rich men's playground as I term it, where the rich build holiday houses on the many islands, hence the name "thousand islands" the houses are beautiful, some built to look like castles, holiday inns/resorts etc.
