My plane was delayed from Bogotá,17 hours because one of the breaks on the plane did not work. Better to be safe than sorry ;) This also ment that I had a 23 hour wait in Toronto to catch the next plane home to Copenhagen. Luckily my friends Caleb and Glynis could pick me up at the airport, I stayed at their house over night and Caleb took the day off from work and drove me around to show me some of the sights.
A picture of us all before Glynis had to go to work
First stop on our tour was Niagra Falls. It was beautiful!! Cold wind and there was a bit of snow left even though it had been raining some days before:

Thankfully Caleb and Glynis could lend me this very warm jacket, it was pretty cold!
Smileeeeee
Part of Niagra falls is also all the casinos and entertainment stuff, I was amazed that this apparently also was a big part of the attraction:
I am not really sure what happened here?
We even had time to go to the butterfly conservatory. They had some beautiful butterflies, and it was a lot of fun to try and catch some pictures of them:
The biggest butterfly species in the world (lives in Indonesia), it is much bigger than a hand... and it only lives for 3 days... We felt very lucky to have seen it.
I had a great time in Toronto, and the very long wait ended up being a great time.. I am very happy that I got to spend some time with Caleb and Glynis, and I hope our paths will cross again some time soon.
Now, Christmas hygge with my family for 2 weeks before I go back to the project in Colombia :)
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all of you out there :D
