Yindian yinfluence in Canada! Both screens decided to become Indian just when I looked up to take a photo. Perfect! (Btw for those who can't tell, that's Aishwarya Rai)

Me outside Eaton Centre. It got dark so soon! All we had time for was gallivanting inside Eaton alone! No time for anything else downtown! Never mind. After exams, I get my next chance with Pallavi. (Can't wait pallu!)

Flying geese in Eaton Centre! (Suspended of course, but looks pretty realistic eh?)

The famous Eaton Centre in downtown Toronto. I went completely nuts here! Shoppers' Paradise! 5/6 levels of just SHOPPING! (I was never this bad a shopaholic in Singapore. Canada rocks :D)

Inside the subway. I'm pretty sure the doorways are red coz we were taking the Red-Line. But Neeraja's not too sure. When we changed to the yellow line, the doorways were yellow! If it's true, it's a pretty good way of knowing you're on the right track (OMGGG PUN! :D :D :D).

The TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) Subway! I got so hyper when I saw it coz I've been under the impression that North American public transit is pathetic. But this is exactly like our MRT trains in Singapore!

Grinning baekkishly with the CNY decor. I was feeling cheesy taking photos with all the lil kids. But at least I didn't go up on stage.

The lion about to eat the lettuce! (I find this so ironic. Putting up Lion Dance photos in Canada!)

Apparently this is a CNY custom. I didn't even know about it till Neeru told me! Most of these shops have a bunch of lettuce hanging at their doorways. The lion has to dance and finally eat up the lettuce. So the poor lions had to stop and dance in front of every shop!

In Pacific Mall. A mall with ONLY Chinese shops and LOTS of Chinese people. Managed to catch the Lion Dance there coz it was Chinese New Year. So I didn't miss anything from not being in Singapore on CNY! (Got the holidays too since it was Reading Week :D)

Neeraja, Me and her Mom, Lata Aunty. After their friend's Homam.

Neeraja and her very very nice family who put me up ! Her brother had gone out.

Doesn't differ much from Singapore eh? Except for the emptiness I guess. This photo was illegally taken by the way :P

Guruuuu ka poster! In Canada! :D :D We very nearly went to watch it but tickets were tooo expensive! So ended up watching Bond instead. (Anyway Namratha's got the Guru DVD now so YAY! One more session of cooking and movie!)

AMC Cineplex. We went to watch Casino Royale (finally!). Ooh WHAT a movie :D

Delectable variety of SWEETS! :D :D :D

Where we went for lunch. A-1 restaurant. Fully vegetarian Punjabi cuisine. DELICIOUS! And beside the restaurant, a whole lot of Indian shops! Scarborough has HUGE population of Chinese and Indians. In fact I think I only saw 4 or 5 Canadians here!

Shirdi Sai Baba

With Neeraja's family at the Shirdi Sai Baba mandhir in Scarborough/Markham (can't remember which area! But they're both suburbs of Toronto).

At Chicopee Ski Resort. That's our poor instructor who had to rescue me about 50 times in the one hour that he taught us! Skiing's definitely not my thing.
