canadian withdrawal

niagara falls is breahttaking. the spectacular view of the american falls and the canadian falls is incomparable. it is true and clear that the better view is on the canadian side of the border. you get a glimpse of the magnificent beauty of the gigantic falls up front. the mist is so fresh. and what about the colorful display of fireworks at night? the falls is even a better view at night as it changes colors for red to lue to white to purple. and number of crowds that surrounded the giant falls are overwhelming. if there's one thing i miss is that i wished my family and friends whom i left should have been there.

i came back from toronto yesterday with the all smiles and with lots of memories seeing old childhood friends. i enjoyed the spectacular destinations of toronto and missisauga offered. downtown toronto is such a blast with the jazz festival, sipping tim horton's ice cappucino in the middle of the city. who can forgot den-az cool and pricey condo at the midst of the downtown genre? imagine painting mir's bachelor and drinking red wine at the same time? well i did that with cess and friends.

at rockdale mall with the overwhelming discounts, i met odessa and "j-lo" (charity). the casa loma castle and the inviting garden at the front provided a place to chat and look back at out past lives, catch up for thriteen years and remincise. kagawa restaurant with the authentic japanese dining experience gave us full stomach and a load of laughters and memories.

but i think the magic of canada lies not only on its magestic places to see, but on the warmth of the people. cess, tita alice, lola, and ate not embrace and my family and i with open arms in their lovely mansion. they offered us an array of barbeques and "galbi" lots of chismis and catching up. i was filled up in a minute.tito's love and concern for cess reminded that there are nice guys there. ate not's desire for independence made me think of mine.

and odette, odessa offered me renewed friendship making me realized that the foundation of an old friendship that was built on trust could can never be destroyed. j-lo opened my eyes to just have fun and relaxed and enjoy the show as she remained calm and cool all through out worrying about las vegas and her admirers there constantly saying, " guys will be there! who cares? " odessa's son darian remind me of how odessa grew up to be an adult early in life and yet, she survived it and she has been an extraordinary mom. darian is a bright child and his upbrining clearly has become odess'a achievement. tita rosy odessa mom welcomed our party without hesitation and made us eat sweet treats of the fresh watermelon.

ontario, canada is such a beautiful province from the niagara falls up to the shyrcrapers in the windy toronto. but what i will miss more about toronto and missisauga is the warm embraces of my friends, the long chitchats and the galbis. i will come back there. i promise.
