Last glimpse of the mountains on the flight out of Vancouver:
The song I sang in my head during the turbulence, telling myself “Everything’s Alright”:
The first glimpse of Toronto through the window:
The song I sang in my head as we began our descent:
That mountain photo is fantastic!

🙂 It looks like a painting rather than a picture. Still now is there any snow on the top of it?
Odd weird weather, one hour ago, I red that: http://www.lastwordonnothing.com/2018/08/03/downpour-in-a-dry-land/

There would still be snow on top because it is so high. I think that might actually be Mount Baker in Washington State, which we can see from Vancouver, but I’m not sure. I’m in Toronto right now and there were massive floods downtown the other night. Really strange. Thanks for the link to that piece. It’s really a beautiful description of the weather there.

The one descending into Toronto is great also!
What’s the name of the band/singer of “Everything’s Alright” ?

Thanks. I always love seeing the lights on descent. “Everything’s Alright” is from the Andrew Lloyd Weber/Tim Rice musical “Jesus Christ Superstar”. I listened to the soundtrack over and over again as a teenager. This version is from the film made in 2000 with Renee Castle as Mary Magdalene.

Thanks! I never did see that. Curious what you think of MM2… hope Toronto weather isn’t too hot.

Well I thought MM2 was fun, but there are certainly better movies around! Toronto is hot, but there’s also been lots of rain.

I love Jesus Christ Superstar! when I was young I liked to listen to the soundtrack on the records my father had, then I watched the 1973 musical & bought the soundtrack on CD when I was a teen. my friends thought I was weird, lol! I saw it on tour when Sebastian Bach played Jesus. Carl Anderson, who played Judas in the 1973 musical, was supposed to be in it as well but he was out that day with a sore throat. I was so mad! 😀

My friends thought I was weird too. They were much more into Led Zeppelin! Lucky you to have seen JCS live! Even with the personnel change!

oh, I was into Led Zeppelin too. I found one of my old skateboards in the garage the other day and it made me laugh b/c I painted Led Zeppelin on it with nail polish, along with the Batman symbol 😀

I listened to that too. And bluegrass and country music and Broadway musicals etc etc. My tastes were (and are) more eclectic than my friends’. Skateboarding? Cool. My son is talking about getting a longboard.

It was great to visit with family and do some sightseeing with my younger son who has never lived in Toronto. It was busy, though!
