Thanks for keeping an eye on the blog, although nothing happened for a long time. Finally I'm publishing the review for November and December 2007, but the descriptions are much shorter due to lack of time ;-)
Toronto
We visited a lot of sights including CN-Tower, China Town, Kensington Market, City Hall, Eaton Center (Shopping), and the Royal Ontario Museum. We also checked out all kind of food, for example the Korean barbecue during a visit of my brother Klaus.
Trips
Before the exams started in December, there was some time to visit Canada's Wonderland for the Halloween weekend. This trip was very nice, as we were able to both ride some rollercoasters and enter haunted houses with frightening clowns! Another trip we joined lead us to Niagara on the Lake, which is quite nice this time of the year. We continued to see the colored falls and to have a look at the entertainment district of Niagara.
Campus Life
During the first term, a couple of exchange students met quite often on Wednesday to play pool and foosball at the Phoenix, which is the on-campus bar of McMaster. This photo album also contains pictures of some Halloween parties, the Christmas dinner of the International Office and a "German Food" party. We prepared traditional "Wurstnudeln" for this event, which were called "Nudelsalat" by the Germans...!
That's it for now, I'll be back with more news from Canada soon!
