Part One: Assimilation

When we arrived Toronto late in the evening, the temperature was about 40 degree. I thought that our plane got lost, landed on an other continent. It was incredibly hot. Our hosts were waiting for us and we searched the landscape from the car on our way home. At first sight the streets, the houses and its grouping seemed different from ours and similar to my expectations.

The following day we drove to the Niagara Falls. I imagined that it was much more colossal. We hardly could see the mass of the water falling because of the water splashing back. It was still extremely hot and the humidity was very high as well. We made a tour behind the falls. It was very wet and cold, everyone had to wear a raincoat. We saw the waterfall not only from behind but also got a great view from above from a nearby tower. Actually, there are two falls, one belongs to the US, the other to Canada. The Canadian Fall is much bigger and nicer because of its U-shape. It's said to be falling the one fifth of the world's water through the Niagara Falls. I also liked the policemen running by bicycles. Look at the lovely rainbow in the middle of the picture.
