Key West

Next it was time to fly to Key West

This is a photo taken at the end of a pier, it's very sunny and quite hot.

It's the wet season however, so it also rains very heavily once a day for about 20-30 minutes. This doesn't cool things down any.

Key West is famous for a dessert called Key Lime Pie.

There are also a lot of people out at night.

Time to go to New Orleans. They have a very small airport so we had to walk out to the plane across the runway.

New York

From Rockland I flew back to Boston and then to New York.

 The flight to Boston was on a very small plane. That's the pilot up the front, and I was sitting in the back row of passengers.

 New York has a place called Times Square. It is famous for having a lot of giant TVs and advertising.

 It also has a giant park, called central park.

You could see the park from my hotel window.

 I went and saw a play where everyone in the audience wore a spooky mask. They let us keep the masks.

 I had a brief look at their museum, but I had to leave shortly after I got there because it was closing time.

 I ate a pizza...

 ...and saw lots of tall, tall buildings.

Rockland

From Boston I was supposed to catch the train to Rockland, but the train tracks were being repaired.

Instead I had to catch a bus. 

 Rockland is a small fishing town in the State of Maine.

 Every year they have a lobster festival. It's a bit like their version of the Geelong show, or the Melbourne Show. It's smaller but they still have rides and stands selling food.

 They sell lobsters too. This is a tray of lobsters that I had for lunch.

 The hotel I stayed in had a breakfast bar where you could go up and choose what you wanted to have.
They had a waffle maker, so I made myself some waffles. Delicious.

 This is a giant fiberglass lobster that is used as part of a parade for the festival.

 This is a view of the ocean from near the hotel.

 I saw a lot of bumblebees.

 After I was finished at the lobster festival, it was time to fly to New York, only this time I was flying ion a very small plane.

Boston

After Canada I went back to America, to the city of Boston

Boston has a lot of very old buildings

 some surrounded by new buildings

 some of the old buildings have new shops inside

 I saw an old boat

 and this monument has 295 stairs inside

 I climbed to the top and looked out the window

Canada

After I left Seattle, I caught the train into Canada, to a city called Vancouver.

It was late at night when the train arrived and I finally got to my hotel.

My room was on the 43rd floor, this was the view outside.

During the day it looked like this.

Stanley Park is near the city center. It has lots of flowers.

And lots of tall trees.

This shot is looking up at how tall the trees are.

This is the hotel. The round bit at the top is a revolving restaurant.

This means that the whole restaurant slowly turns around so eventually you get to see the whole city while you eat.

I ate a lobster.

After Vancouver I flew to Toronto.

This is the foyer of my hotel in Toronto.

And this is the room.

I caught a bus out to see Niagra falls.

I stopped at a chocolate shop on the way.

This is the falls from close up.

I flew in a helicopter over the falls.

And went in a boat right up to the bottom of the falls.

It sure was wet down there.

This is the boat I was on, from up above the falls.

I also went to the Royal Ontario Museum. (Ontario is the province Toronto is in. What we call states the Canadians call provinces). I saw dinosaur bones.

I also saw a squirrel.

And a hummingbird.

And ate more Sushi.
