Default Photos please...

Hi,

Just been on the NZ forum they have a "great NZ picture thread", I was wondering if there is anyone out there who would mind sharing some photos of Canada with us. It would really help people like me (who haven't even been there yet) get an idea of what life in Canada is like.

Anyone got any pictures?...

If you click on the pbase link beneath my signature in this post it will take you to a site with a series of galleries of pictures of mine.

Once there click on the small picture to take you to the appropriate gallery then once again on the smaller pictures to see a larger version.

Cheers
Steve

Here are some from last November. They were taken in at Fairmont Hot Springs and Sunshine. And the first is pretty obvious.
