Habitat 67, Montreal. This crazy apartment complex was designed by Israeli–Canadian architect Moshe Safdie for the 1967 World Exposition. Today it stands as Montreal’s and one of the worlds most bizarre pieces of architecture.

Today I didn’t really explore Montreal, instead I geeked out and made a trip to the outer suburbs of Montreal to pick up myself a Leap Motion! I have been waiting to get my hands on one of these little babies for about 18 months since I first heard about it being developed. The leap…

Braeboy took me on a romantic walk around the snow covered Mount Royal Park where we spotted some Squirrels, two Racoons, two excitable puppies, a woodpecker and then built a snowman under a giant cross. Brae then bravely fought back this rabbit wolf with a stick. It was just like The Grey.

Sami! I met up with my old buddy Sami today in Kensington.

PILLOW FIGHT! The annual pillow fight took place today in front of the Toronto UFO Docking station (also known as the city hall) with a Superhero theme. It was a bit too cold for me to dress in anything like a costume or Pyjamas and join in so I just stood back and took some…
