CANADA part 2

Toronto : De stad waar ik toch wel zou willen wonen, misschien als we met pension gaan.
The town where I probably would like to live. (possibly when we are retired.)

Toronto Island: The building on the left side of the island (photo below) is the place where I worked 40 years ago , thanks to Jack Dwyer , we talked about it when we were at there place.

Thank you again Jack and Ingrid.

Down Town.

Tineke in the CN tower.

De brug boven in de foto is de " Bathurst bridge " op internet kan je er meer overlezen.

Straks zie je een foto wat ook bijzonder is , ja noem het onnozel , wat doen die dingen daar midden op een brug.

The bridge in the top of the picture is the " Bathurst bridge", on the internet you can read more about this bridge. Later you will see a picture which is very special, it has barstools.

Tineke en Fokke lekker aan het eten boven in de CN tower, ja we hebben het er maar eens van genomen.

Tineke and Fokke having a nice meal in the top of the CN tower. We spared no expense for this meal.

Ja dit is weer die " Bathurst bridge " Wat doen die drie barkrukken daar in hemelsnaam, dacht ik ga er op zitten misschien word ik wel bedient Canadeese whisky ( Wiser's) met ginger ale.

Yes, this is the " Bathurst bridge " again. Why in gods name are there three bar stools, I thought I'd go sit there and see if someone offers me a drink.

Dit is nu het huis wat ik zou willen kopen, midden in de stad vlak bij China town om boodschappen te doen en hartstikke rustig. Alleen ben je wel jaren bezig om het op te knappen. Tineke vindt het geen goed idee, moet er alleen maar over dromen zei ze.

This is the house that I would like to buy, it is in the middle of the city near China town, it's a quiet neighbourhood where we can shop. The only draw back is that it would take years to fix up. Tineke thinks it is not a good idea, we should only dream about it.

Pavarotti - Ave Maria

CANADA part 1

Canada heeft dan zijn "Mapleleaf" maar Tineke was toch wel onder de indruk van de "hummingbirds".

Ons eerste bezoek bij Steve and Stacey Dwyer and their son Nolan at Caledon.

Jack and Ingrid came over with the two kids of Michael, enjoying steaks. Also Michael himself , John, and Peter and his girlfriend are there. Later came Michael ( of Tante Beth) with his daughter Laura for a short visit. We all had a good time.

Cheltenham Badlands.

Stacey drove us the next day to Toronto downtown.

Thank you Steve and Stacey for the hospitality.
