Moonlit Montreal
19 June 2000 | ||
 |
||
| View from my hotel in Montreal over the city at night.... | ||
L'eglise Notre Dame
24 June 2000 | ||
 |
||
| The kitschy notre dame church in Montreal, when we had an extra day for sightseeing.... | ||
Reminds me of 'The Abyss', only above water....
24 June 2000 | ||
 |
||
| The Montreal Tower at its Olympic park.... Built for 1976, the first after the 1972 Olympics in Munich.... | ||
A fish view of the upper cabin
5 July 2001 | ||
 |
||
| How a fish would see the upper cabin..... | ||
European Style
10 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Bars, cafes, clubs, restaurants... and people on the sidewalks.... If it just weren't for the religion of F1.... | ||
Jerome and Hans
11 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Hans is studying architecture in Montreal.... Well, it's all a front for a big indulgence in kayaking.... | ||
Car expo at Orange Julep
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Jerome, Hans' former room mate is a photographer and we came along with him to a car expo where he was going to photograph tuned up cars and their owners.... I am not much into cars, but this was fun.... | ||
Genesis....
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Fake police car.... | ||
Best polished car ever!
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| I spent an hour taking photos of reflections of this car.... | ||
Orange Julep
12 June 2002 | ||

||
| The huge Orange restaurant's parking space serves as the location for the car exhibition.... | ||
The best polished car and its owner
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Not even a dead insect on the cooler.... | ||
Me and the Orange....
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| ....as reflected.... | ||
Airfilter?
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| I have no idea what this part is, but it looks cool polished like that.... | ||
Darth Vader lives
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| It seems the late 70s Camaro served as an inspiration to George Lucas... Even the little doggy is frightened. | ||
Car fetishists
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| These kids certainly understand more of cars than I do.... | ||
Kayakism
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Hans represents a new religion, that of Kayakism. Too afraid to miss the early morning bell to get to the raging waters, he just stayed outside of Jerome's home - sleeping bag and Thermarest included - inside his huge van, because he didn't have an alarm clock in his flat. | ||
Jerome at Low-light
12 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Showing Jerome and his flatmate how my camera treats ultra-low-light situations.... | ||
Drinks in Quebec
13 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| In Hans fave bar, which was basically a set of living rooms..... | ||
Guinness
13 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| The kind of street atmosphere that I really miss in LA.... | ||
Il pluit et il pluit et il pluit
15 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| I miss the rain in LA, but certainly don't want it round the clock, when I am on a vacation weekend.... Now I know why Hans went kayaking that weekend.... | ||
Alternative Program
15 June 2002 | ||
 |
||
| So instead of sightseeing in the sunshine, I went to the Ritz and spent three hours eating... And alternatively scribbling in 'To-dos' into my Palm. | ||
Safety measure
18 July 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Spot the difference | ||
Squashed
27 July 2002 | ||
 |
||
| Quite a difference from the flight three days prior to this one that took me back to Europe.... | ||
