Short break in Canada

Image
Having just returned from a short trip to Canada during April, I thought I'd share a few of my memories and pictures on my first visit to Canada. I arrived at Toronto Pearson International airport after an 8-hour flight from London Heathrow, which seemed to take an age for some reason. I must say after flying Virgin Atlantic the previous month, the Air Canada plane seemed very basic indeed. I can remember barely being able to see the movie, which if I remember correctly was In the Line of Fire. It was by no means the worst plane I have been on, though having some decent food might have gone some way to improve the experience. Enough moaning about the flight and onto explaining what I did in Canada. I won't go through everything as I'm sure that will bore most people to death and you'll probably just end up looking at the pictures anyway. On my first day I got a feel for the city by having breakfast at a place called Over Easy on Yonge Street, incidentally Yonge (pronoun...

A passage to India

Image
Having returned from India a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be a good idea to document what I did before my memory completely fails me. Links to the photos and videos are at the bottom of this article should you have no desire to read through my travel blog. I flew from London Heathrow to Kolkata (Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose) International Airport arriving in the early morning to be picked up by Yipi and my cousins. The flight arrived perfectly on time, and I must grudgingly admit that this British Airways flight was much improved from my previous experiences. I arrived in good spirits and only a little exhausted. On greeting them around 6am we make the journey to Serampore by car, which was quite interesting, especially being able to watch various festivals taking place en-route. I stayed at Serampore for a couple of days, which provided a good opportunity to catch up with relatives and see the festival in Rishra. We managed a day trip to Kolkata to see various attractions su...

Rest in peace grandpa

It must be about time to add another entry to my blog as I haven't updated it since late last year. Now that I've finally got a few moments to write something I might as well explain what I've done recently. Since my last entry I visited Shanghai for 10 days to see friends and also do a bit of sightseeing. Though in all honesty it was very cold and wet there so we didn't visit too many places. It's not very often I go travelling half way round the world to visit somewhere which is colder than the UK. Still the food and company was good so I can't complain too much. I did discover a pretty good tune from Bruce Springsteen when watching some of the local TV in China. I wouldn't consider myself a fan of country and western, but this song did have me hooked. I also managed to visit some places not too far away from Shanghai. Suzhou is around an hour away from Shanghai by train and is a very picturesque city with some nice canals. I've heard people call it t...
