2008 Toronto- Africian Lion Safari

toronto is not that boring as i thought.......

we visited the "africian lion safari", which turned out to be a very surprising trip.

brought the no-face bunny to safari with me.

entrance of the zoo, the weather is too good !

i am the one who always not winning babies' attention,

i don't know why i was attracted by this baby....

she kept smiling at me for like 5 minutes.

found this napkin very lovely with a chain of elephants.

in the zoo, we found something we expected to see:

prey and predator

and something not expected:

the monkeys are peeling off the plastic thing from wind shield,

we can see the car owner was sooooo ....無奈

these 2 escaped from the fence twice !

the gorgeous one !

these 2 chose their own habitat, & stayed away from us !!!

clever boy !

i felt a bit sad when seeing this tho'. {applause}

look at it's mouth..... i cannot help laughing,

click to enlarge if you still cannot see it.

this one wins as my wallpaper of this week.

2008 Toronto- the niagara falls

some ppl said it's a lifetime experience of visiting niagara falls,
i think it's better to visit with your friends or with your lovers.


what do you think? it looks small in the photo.


this black/white photo can be much better if shot closer to the fall,
but at the risk of wetting the camera.


we wondered why the water is so green when walking along the falls.
the answer is here after searching from the internet.


i felt dizzy when standing alone & staring at the water falls,
what if i jumped into it?
anyone has the same thought as me at there?
or just silly me?


when getting closer to evening, the scene is different.
magic hour.....

2008 Toronto- Peninsula Winery

first time to visit a winery that closed to the niagara falls.


the environment there is just too nice,
fresh air, no noise, clear sky, no pollution.




i love this shot !!! the shadow of the wine glass and the light on table.


and this ! again, the shadow and the background.


cad5 for unlimited wine tasting was way too cool !
the 3 icewine offered there are surperb !
i bought 2 of these.


a group of 18 of us had a joyous moment there.
