New York, New York

(more of that later)

Starting off in grand style.....

The first tourist attraction I came across was a whole wall painted with naked breasts.....Hmmmmm

Apparently this is where all the action takes place. Get a load of that traffic light!

An example of the unusual architecture in this part of the world.

Portland, Maine

Now we're really getting into New England

A couple of shots of the "bustling" center of town.




Everything seems very....um...orange around here :-)

The Brian Boru pub.... ....looks like a nice place to visit.....

....several hours later...

This looks kinda familiar.....oh no....different town.

A day in the life of Nova Scotia's capital city.

Let's take the harbourwalk.

Through the delightful waterfront area.

Leading to....

(you knew there had to be a pub along the way, didn't you)

It's a bit of a hike up the hill, just to find out what time it is!!

Hmmmm, that looks pretty "historic".

Now there's a whole lot of different modes of transport in one shot!!

Oh, and while we were there we got to see Queen Mary's butt up close (and personal):-



(the two ships were parked 'cheek-to-cheek')

Saint John, New Brunswick

Now this place has got some interesting stuff going on.

At least we found a good place to park.





An overview of the town and a taste of the historic buildings.

The structure on the right is actually a bus shelter....I guess the lighthouse helps the bus driver to navigate.

I think this must be the town's emblem.

....and a closer look.

Still closer!!

Such cute little houses.

Meanwhile, by the lake, the autumn leaves are beginning to turn.




....and a view of the town to match the color of the leaves.

This one definitely qualifies as 'quaint'.

This looks like a nice place to stay:-

I think they're selling lobster :-) (what else in Maine?)

....and now what you've all been waiting for in New England.....
The Leaves Are Turning!!!

	Here's one that likes to stand out in the crowd.

I couldn't really do the colors justice on camera......Sooooo Beautiful!!!

Boston, Massachusetts

Back to the big city.

A first glimpse of the city across the river.


The gorgeous city streets.

Now that's a unique piece of architecture!!!

The old bridge that previously did the job. (a bit of an improvement, yes?)

A nice place to eat your lunch...right in the heart of town.

Some of the architecture is pretty "old world".

A silhouuette behind the fountain.

There's a lot of theatres in Boston.

The Boston children's museum.... Looks like they drink a lot of milk there!!

Cheers everybody!!!!

My favorite part of Boston, the Back Bay area.

....and the big buildings towering above.
