Five Around the stuppa

Five Around the stuppa
My first day in Nepal (~March 1994). We went to the Kathmandu stuppa - which you see from the plane on the way in. It's pretty big (and the plane isn't). People walk around the stuppa turning the prayer wheels (clockwise of course - always).

Really this is just the start. It extends for some way in more or less a single line.

Waterfall Outside Sapa

Waterfall Outside Sapa
We are enroute to Sapa, the main tourist destination of the area. For both foreign and Vietnamese tourists. Sapa is fairly high up and picturesque, and features a strong Black Hmong presence owing to the nearby village whose subsistance is now based on the tourism - like many of the villages around here.

Sarah's Climbing


This boulder was a bit flaky but we came up with a fun crimper problem. This is not it.
From left to right: Kyle, Paul, Leslie, Jim and Sarah.
At this point Toby was still lost.
For a picture of Paul on the same problem.

Giddy in the Car

Giddy in the Car
Of course without me as navigator, we turned left leaving the Glenn instead of right. Maybe we were just giddy from the storm. Unfortunately the Niagara Parkway exit that you take to get the the Glenn is also the last exit before the Canada-US border. The prospect of crossing the border may also have made us giddy. So though some of us did not have appropriate ID we did manage to cross with promises that we were turning right around. This meant we also had to enter into Canada again. There were long line-ups both ways. Paul was more subdued, Emily was definintely the giddiest.

Niagara Glen

Niagara Glen
Some friends from Kingston came up and we headed to Niagara Glen for some bouldering Sunday morning. Despite the threatening sky we thought we might get lucky and get some climbing in before the predicted afternoon thunderstorms.
I took exactly two pictures, including this one of Jim spotting Emily on a V-Easy warm up.
The lighting already looks dark, but just after this picture was taken clouds rolled in faster than you can say "gosh that was fast!" It was really something. The sky was a dark and a menacing green, the wind grew violent and the thunder we had heard in the distance was now closer and joined by lightning. The whole transformation took maybe ten seconds.
Given the weather we decided that getting to the top of the cliff via metal staircase might not be safe. So instead of walking up the staircase we ran up.

Detroit Tunnel

Detroit Tunnel
Roel in the tunnel joining terminals B and C to the gigantic terminal A at the Detroit airport are very atmospheric and soothing. On the way out it was sorta trance-like abstract. On the way back it was mimicking a thunder storm (but in a soothing way).

These are some of the people I work with (Jeff, Connor, Roel). Really. This picture was taken after the first leg of our journey to CHI2003 in Fort Lauderdale. We woke up at 3am to drive to Ottawa, and here we are waiting for the plane - finding ways to amuse ourselves.

RMC Climbing Comp

RMC rock wall
This is the RMC climbing wall. There was a competition there. It was fun - especially the francophone rap they played throughout the day. Except for the brief Eminem stint, then I was concerned for the burning ears of the 7 year olds - due to the uncensored lyrics.
That's Dan in the foreground.
