I went to Canada twice.  Once in September to do the north western cities and in November to do Toronto and Ottowa.  When I say 'do,' I mean visit customers.  Unfortunately this did not give a lot of opportunity for doing touristy things, but here are some photos of what I did see

Untitled5.jpg (40726 bytes) I went to Yellowknife.  It has a latitude of 62 degrees which puts it just outside the arctic circle.  This is Great Slave Lake.  The worlds 9th largest fresh water lake.  They have houseboats which are permanently moored here, even when the lake freezes over.  People live in them all year round.

Untitled25.jpg (34917 bytes) Niagara Falls.  About 1 1/2 hours drive from Toronto.

Untitled27.jpg (29528 bytes) More falls.  The spray from the falls provides a permanent rainbow

Untitled29.jpg (30292 bytes) Looking back towards the town of Niagara.  Note the double rainbow.  Buggered if I know why there are 2.

Untitled30.jpg (41664 bytes) Me and my work colleague.  We visited the falls just after a customer call which explains the extremely appropriate suit & tie.

Untitled32.jpg (52511 bytes) November is cool.  Not cold, but cool.  Cool enough to leave lots of ice hanging around

Untitled35.jpg (43880 bytes) Behind the falls, they have these viewing portals.  With the wind blowing the way it was, it made it nice and wet in there.

Untitled37.jpg (49723 bytes) What happens as the spray settles on the local flora.  Poor tree.,
