Ontario

I really liked Ottawa.

I went for a lovely walk down the canal to the parliament buildings.



Here there were five statues of women, out of which these two were my favourite. One was holding a newspaper which said "Women are Persons". This group of five successfully protested that women should not be excluded from the Senate, because women are "persons" and therefore fit the Senate's requirement.

From Ottawa I went on to Toronto. Toronto is huge! On Sunday morning I went for a walk before catching the double decker GO train to Oakville where I visited Scott's church. Scott worked at Totara Springs for several years with Uncle Chris and Auntie Sue. It was a great service and I was very glad I made it. After church Scott kindly took me out for lunch, and then down to see Lake Ontario. You can't see the other side!!!! It's so big!



From there we visited Jamie Bay. Unfortunately I forgot to get a picture, but I've borrowed one from Scott's facebook and I'm sure he won't mind. Use your imagination to merge these pictures together.


From there I headed back downtown and had a look around. I really liked this building, with the stairs coming out of the side.

Here is CN Tower.


This is the flat iron building.


These guys were outside the hockey museum.


This is part of Kensington Market.


On Monday morning, before my bus, I went down to the waterfront to check out the Toronto International Circus Festival. It had a good atmosphere. On the way down I saw a significant number of people marching with Israeli flags.
