My name is Bond, James Bond. I'll have a vodka martini shaken not stirred. Nobody does it better than 007. Well, except maybe Captain Kirk or Captain Picard or Number 6.











What's this picture you ask. Well, I'll tell you. I always wanted one of these buses when I was a child but it was only my younger brother who always got one. Now, thanks to the internet, I received my own Dinky toy Vega coach courtesy of a collector who sold me this one. I have added a link to his site. You can check out all the old Dinky toys for yourself.

This is a traditional home in the Philippines. It is called a "Bahay Kubo" and is found mostly on or near rice farms. Notice it is raised from the ground to prevent flooding during typhoons.







Another view of the romantic city of Baguio in the Philippines. Of all the places I've been to in the Philippines, this was my favourite. Comfortable climate, hospitable people and great food.





This is my home town - Vancouver. It's one of the world's most beautiful cities. I don't say that because I live here but because it's true. Fabulous mountain scenery, beautiful blue ocean, impressive architecture, so much to do, so much to see. If I lived anywhere else, I would want to visit Vancouver. The only downside to Vancouver is it rains alot here.











I've driven by this site many times and marvelled at the engineering feat that went into this bridge. I have even been over this bridge by train. This railway trestle is located in northern British Columbia near William's Lake. Driving by, it always looks like a model railroad.





The train trestle above traverses this river. It is the Fraser River and it drains from the Rocky Mountains down through the central part of British Columbia. It is B.C.'s largest and longest river and it's basin is the Pacific Ocean at Vancouver (Richmond).





This river has been travelled by explorers, gold miners and settlers. It is a critical river to our forest and fishing industry. You can drive along this river from Vancouver to Lytton and take the train from Lytton to Prince George to follow the rest of the river. These photos were taken from the train.







The journey on the train takes you by the crystal blue/green waters of Seaton Lake. Taking the train is a fabulous way to see the splendor of B.C.









THE DANCER SAYS CHECK OUT THIS LINK TO GROOVE RADIO FOR THE HOTTEST DANCE MUSIC ON THE NET. D.J. POOGIE BEAR (THAT'S ME) RECOMMENDS IT TOO.











This lake is also located in northern British Columbia. It's about a 1/2 hour drive into the bush country near Vanderhoof. Pure wilderness except during hunting season. There is something very calming and peaceful about this part of the country. Having been here, I understand why we go to the wilderness to get away from it all. There's nothing like canoeing along this lake and paddling right by a moose.











There was a time long ago when this was the place to see a hockey game. I had such an opportunity back in 1982 when I watched the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the New Jersey Devils. Maple Leaf Gardens is a nostalgic look into the N.H.L. and I will never forget the experience. The Air Canada Center will never have the class that Maple Leaf Gardens attained. Think of all those players from yesteryear. Johnny Bower, George Armstrong, Dave Keon, Eddie Shack, Darryl Sittler, Ron Ellis, Tim Horton, Bjorie Salming, Punch Imlach, Harold Ballard and the list goes on. Today, Toronto again faces New Jersey for the Stanley Cup and the players include, Wendell Clark, Mats Sundin, Steve Thomas, Darcy Tucker, Curtis (Cujo) Joseph, Domi, Ken Dryden, and Pat Quinn. Then, there's that new kid Fargas who scored his first ever N.H.L. goal in game 5 of the second round of the play-offs. Only the "original 6" can boast that kind of status.
