Paradise

Spent these last few days in Ottawa to change my visa (since I got a new job and all...), and in a whim, I rented a car and made my way to Gatineau Park about 20 minutes away. It was the best $20 I've ever spent.

I took these pictures while hiking at the park. The first few were taken at Pink Lake Trail, the last one at Champlain Overlook. Now tell me if this isn't surreal (the first picture is my favorite):

(by the way, the reds & oranges aren't flowers -- they're trees)
