North America on the run: Canada - the place

The next rendezvous beckoning after Seattle was the city of Barrie near Toronto.It is very confusing whether the landscape of Canada is more boring or the people are more remarkable.
In conclusion, I think both things are equally true.

About the Canadian land, the only words I have for it are flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, uninteresting, uninteresting, flat, flat, flat, uninteresting,lakes,lakes,lakes,flat,flat,uninteresting.
Huge huge humongous infinite flat land. More than enough for everybody many times over. On my way from Toronto to Barrie I saw around 8-10 golf courses, after which I stopped counting. Buildings have so much of space left empty around them that they look very tiny despite being huge.
I saw a school building with 5-6 soccer grounds around it. Was just imagining Ojas running amok around those grounds: me and Pallavi hot in pursuit. Nothing more to bring out and enhance the innate free spirit present in everybody: especially a fresh mind, unaffected by any external influence. The city of Barrie is by the side of a huge lake and a very nice walkway around it. Had a chance to visit it only once though: I would definitely like to get back there with more time at my hands and with my family. Let's see: who has seen the future? Who knows?
