2 Trillion Litres of Water per Hour.

Niagara Falls which is apprently according to Wikipedia not included in the 7 Wonders of the Natural World (apparently some other shitty falls in Zimbabwe is better) but we thought it was pretty impressive anyway. Of course we had to go on the coined attraction of the Maid of the Mist, which takes you right up to the 'baby falls' and into the mist of the horseshoe falls. Here are the before shots:

And now for the during:

The gross foam which is downstream.

Yeah I was the only person in my bathers and considering it was only 20degrees it might not have been the smartest choice as I now have a cold. 

The 'baby/American' falls.

That's the behind the falls walk which we totes would have done if we had any money =(

Inside the Horseshoe Falls aka the Canadian Falls aka the Better Falls. 

And after... 

Shots from the lookout tower which is about 3 stories high on top of the cliffs which surround the river. 

The American Falls. 

Yes I totes took this photo of the Canadian Falls. Unfortunately the mist was super super thick the day we when and from the lookout (where this one is taken) you couldn't even really see the outline of the falls, so thank you Google Images.

Because we are idiots and went on the weekend we also had to then wait 2 hours for the next train so we wandered up and down the river & found amazing autumn trees and insane rapids. 

Oh yeah and there is a mini-Hollywood/Universal here too. Kind of weird considering you go from beautiful natural wonder to man made nature killing street. 

And we finally tried Dairy Queen - got the standard Chocolate Milkshake which they actually made with real milk, but that is spray on cream on top. Surprisingly actually quite tasty. 

Well that is the only attraction we have visited whilst in Toronto. But we have been having a fantastic time house hunting (got one!) and job hunting (on a temp assignment as we speak, heck they told me to amuse myself on the internet what else was I meant to do!). Also we have been gyming loosing all that extra fast food goodness weight and drinking to compensate for the gyming - thus we are still just as fat! But I can now pass the US Army Run Test =D

Ta Ta for Now.

Parlez-vous français?

Except this is waaaay better than that shithouse Art vs. Science piece of ear burning crap which is sometimes referred to as a 'musical talent'. Yeah FYI; I hate them. 

So what Montreal does have that Art vs. Science do not have...

1. Amazing Churches:

2. French Architecture: 

3. Art Installations:

Translation: "There will be a place for each of the freedoms that you will give you ground"

4. Beautiful Autumn Trees:

5. Delicious pastries:

So now you're all officially convinced that Montreal is better than some shitty Sydney Band with one or two has been singles. Here is the rest of Montreal. 

And cobblestone streets!

Extremely large version of City West (haha!)

Unfortunately for Montreal, the city planners don't quite have the same visions as they did in the 1800's and this is what most Montreal streets look like.

This is what a good street looks like!

Oh yes and Montreal also has a Mountain (Mount Royal - so creative with the city name...) Anyways so one morning I decided to climb it, LC was asleep... Their Jacobs Ladder is about 10 of ours it was death. But totally worth it. 

Merci & Au Revoir Montreal. 

Oh yes I forgot to mention - everyone speaks french, everyone.
