The World, Engineered

…I noticed about cars in Canada.

- An overwhelming majority of cars are Jap cars. Everywhere you’ll see Toyotas, Hondas, Mazdas, Lexus, Acura etc. but u will seldom see American cars on the roads. Goes to show how much trouble GM and Ford are in now.

- Canada has no car manufacturer of itself. All its cars are brands from other countries though they might be manufactured in Canada.

- No matter how good / expensive / high-end the cars are, most people don’t seem to bother with washing them. Maybe its because its the winter and no one wants to spend half an hour standing outside in the freezing cold splashing water. Or maybe it’s just that nobody cares. Heard that a car wash in Canada costs about 8 or 9 bucks. Some of the cars are so dirty that you almost can’t see the original colors in which they came in.

Just arrived in Canada two nights ago at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport. I’m still trying to adjust to the time difference between Singapore and Toronto, which have a 13-hour difference. Feeling tired and hungry at all the wrong times. Will probably take another day or two to get used to things.

Anyway yesterday went to downtown Canada to visit University of Toronto and also walk around the main business district. The buildings there are very impressive, seemingly more so then those in Singapore’s CBD.

Went to Niagara Falls today. Looks really spectacular except that most of the view was blocked by the mist thrown up by the water.

Will post more pictures when i have time…
