Snapshots from Chicago

A couple of days ago, I got off the train in Chicago -- first stop on my way to Florida. (follow the link below for more... click on the photos to enlarge!)

St John's Newfoundland

My friend James got married in St John's a couple of weeks ago. 

Le Vieux Montreal

Yesterday I went for a walk through Old Montreal.

I liked its cobblestone streets.

Montreal Halloween Party

On Saturday I went to a Halloween party with my friend Hugo who lives out here in Montreal.  Hugo makes his living working as an actor and as the artistic director of Théâtre des Tournesols, a local theatre company.  I've been in Montreal for a week now and it's been fantastic... what a great city... what terrific people! (merci Hugo).  The Halloween party was in a loft that's shared by a group of multi-disciplinary artists.  Little Red Riding hood was dancing up a storm...

This québécois miner had an easy smile.

A scary French-Canadian. (more below!!)

Rockies with a point-and-shoot

Last week, a few days before the Labour Day long weekend, I met up with my friends Steve and Zoe in Field, BC and went on a multi-day hiking vacation through Yoho National Park in the Rockies.

Sunshine Coast

I went to the Sunshine Coast last weekend with Cathy, Pascal and Kenny.

It's snowing in Seoul

It was snowing when I woke up this morning!  I took my camera and went out.

More Seoul

Impressions of Seoul

I arrived in Icheon yesterday and took a bus to Seoul.  At Jamsil station, I flagged a cab and tried out my first words of Korean on the driver.  "Song-pa-gu-min-hawg-wan."  I crashed on the floor of Stuart's tiny apartment and slept like a baby after the 19 hour trip. 

Today Catharine showed me around Seoul.

Lama Temple

This morning I went to the Lama Temple with Caroline where we saw the 25 meter (85-foot) Maitreya Buddha carved from a single white sandalwood tree.

Outside, people lit incense.
