Where is that? I don't see trees like the one on the left in the first picture out here very often.

In my absence from the forum I've been pretty busy. My employer flew me out to Toronto to troubleshoot our largest cellular coverage system, at YYZ, the largest airport in Canada. First time I've flown anywhere in 10 years, I don't travel outside my neck of the woods very often, so it was pretty intimidating, especially considering I was out there on my own. Found some time after my shift to catch train from the airport to the bottom of the CN Tower and wander the streets of downtown Toronto for a bit, here are some pictures from the trip:













And a few more pictures from the last couple of weeks back in the Fraser Valley (BC).

Last week visited the 2 beautiful place Cox's Bazar (sea beach) and Sundarbans as well. Enjoyed a lot there with all of my family members.

Here´s a pic of your Cox´s Bazaar, Ashwell. It looks pretty nice though to be honest, I´m not a big fan of beach scenery.

Hey thanks a for attaching the scenery here. LOL!

Ashwell John

Which do you like basically @Lisnaholic?

Lisnaholic

You´re welcome, Ashwell. Is Cox´s Bazaar your nearest coastal resort? Mine may actually be similar in some ways:-


But what I actually like are towns that show some history and mystery, like Dubrovnik, for example, which I was lucky enough to visit before it was besieged by the Serbs in 1991:-



But my favourite scenery, my true enthusiasm is for The English Lake District:-



These hills, for instance, are the Langdale Pikes and like much of the area you can walk all over them because there are open to the public. No insects or animals to worry about, and no trees to block the view; just a lot of fresh air and exhilaration.

Mr. Charlie

Cox's Baazar looks lovely. The pic reminds me of a beach in Nigeria I visited.

Always nice in the Lake District. All those colours. And air good enough to drink.

Lisnaholic

^ Yes, Nigeria - Bangladesh - Mexico; seems like ideal beach scenery doesn´t vary that much around the world. I think that´s partly why I find it so uninteresting.

Enthusing about the Lakes, though, is something I can do for hours, having spent many holidays based in either Ambleside or Keswick. I wonder which areas you know, Mr.Charlie?

This looks like a beautiful place to visit.

Mr. Charlie

I don't know the area, but have been to the Lake District a few times on family holidays as a child. It's a real pretty area and not too dissimilar to north Wales where I now live. Same raw and rugged landscape, same weather, same air quality.
