Disandat from our Vacation in Canada


The skyline of Toronto with the
CN tower, the Roger Center (football and baseball stadium)
and many many Condos


The Festival Theatre in Stratford on Avon, Ontario.


I didn't think I'd ever see this:
Christin at a "hot dog stand".


...and now for something different:
The Atlantic Ocean at Petit Rocher, P.Q.

The Moose in Algonquin Park


We came within almost paddle reach


An old, strong Moose...in rut..
so you had better be careful.


What can I tell you....
Our hearts beat in our throats.


This time of the year it is best to be careful.
It is "rutting-season" and the bulls do not like to be bothered.
They have a one track mind: "I love that cow"!!!
and I want these people in their stupid canoe to leave.

Simply more Whales


With her left fin she waves to us as in a greeting.


...some more tail fin action



the image below:
The greatest disappointment:
The Whale "breached"...meaning she rose from the water,
her whole body arching in the air. With a mighty splash
she came back down.
I WAS TOO SLOW;
ALL I CAN SHOW YOU IS THE SPLASH.
PITTY.!!!

MORE WHALES...


The whales stay in the Bay of Fundy, feeding
until October, when they move south


...waving us a fond farewell.
