The photos turned out nice, but nothing compares to the real thing. It was just plain WOW.

Of course I don't mind if you use them for references - the thought actually makes me very happy. :)

I find it a bit funny whenever someone uses the word "exotic" to refer to something Canadian, especially anything in my area, because I'm so used to thinking of Canada as ordinary and boring. ;p But I guess to people who aren't familiar with it, it would seem exotic~
