Always Look on the Bright Side

My flight was fogged in on Thursday, which meant the Friday morning flight was very early. Lucky me!
A much more industrial sunrise than I am used to on Lake Michigan.
But so colorful.
Farewell Toronto, Queen City of Lake Ontario! From 4/8/11.

Billy Bishop and the Maple Reindeer

Wouldn't that make an awesome childrens book title? When I saw this truck (in the background) that is what I thought it said: "Maple Reindeers" when in fact, it says "Maple Reinders." I cannot be the only one who has made this error. And I personally think that Maple Reindeer should be the symbol the next time Canada hosts the Winter Olympics.
Anyway, this is the view from Billy Bishop Island Airport, the photo taken just a few hundred yards from the shoreline. Super cool way to get to another amazing Great Lakes city.

Islands and Ferries

I thought this shot of the airplane landing apparatus was really cool.
Here's one of the ferries that takes people to the islands.
Landing apparatus + ferry. From 4/3/11.

Approaching Toronto

Heading east over Lake Ontario.
The familiar Toronto skyline.
The beautiful islands that shield the harbor.
Getting ready to circle and land. From Sunday, 4/3/11.
