This is during the middle of the show when emphasis is places on the railroads that united the country. The video is just over 2 minutes long and gives you a great idea of what the show is about. If you would like to see more Mosaika pictures you can see the Mosaika review post […]

TORONTO SUMMER FESTIVALS: DANCING AT CARIBANA PART 4
PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME As discussed in our Photo Tutorial about how to dance at Caribana 2010 sometimes you have to join the party. When a woman asks you to dance you do not deny her opportunity unless of course you dont know how to dance. There isn’t much that you have to do […]
Many Faces Of Ottawa Parliament – Mosaika Show: Ottawa, Canada
Parliament is already one of the most popular things to do in Ottawa. In the summer of 2010 the city instituted a brand new light and sound show called Mosaika. Check out my review of Mosaiki here. It lasts for about 30 minutes and while being somewhat political, the sights are quite incredible. I […]
Culture Shock Canada Part 2–Arriving in Montreal
The great city of Montreal, it’s about as European as it gets in North America. They speak French, consider themselves French, and fortunately for everyone there are rumors that they are much nicer than the infamous Parisians (sarcasm – but there is truth there).

Culture Shock Canada: 6 Things You Won’t In The United States
Milk in a bag Although extremely common in some countries around the world including Argentina and Canada, this would be more than weird in the United States. I have lived in the states for some time and I even find this a little weird. I have scoured the pages of Wikipedia and consulted with milk […]
DANCING AT CARIBANA IN TORONTO CANADA
The Caribana Caribbean festival is the largest Caribbean festival outside of the Caribbean itself. Caribana Toronto 2010 was no exception with people coming from everywhere (even the United States). We were able to allude security and walk inside the parade. While I wouldn’t recommend it, it wouldn’t have been as fun unless you were involved in the parade. […]
