Photographs from our trip to New York and our travels in Canada
Sadly we lost our camera when we were in New York so most of the photos below were taken on my iphone or on pat's phone. We were sad to discover the loss as it was after we had done all our touristy stuff, inluding our boat trip around Manhattan.
Alistair, Catherine and Pat. Burlington, Ontario.
The harbour at Bronte were Pat's sister Catherine and her family stay. I took this photo on what was the most beautiful of days; a perfect combination of good company, perfect weather and lovely scenery.
Not everyone has their own private beach.
After the graduation ceremony we all went for our dinner to celebrate. Alistair, Sean and Catherine study the menu; Alistair is finding it very hard to pick a starter. :-)

One of my favourite photos from the trip. It's Banjo Jim's - where I would play later that evening.

This vintage clothes shop was across from our apartment in 'the village' when we stayed in New York.
We passed by the Construction site of the new Freedom Tower at Ground Zero. This area will be incredible when it's finished - the building already look stunning.
Here's me waiting to order my coffee in Tinderbox on Byres Road.
It was sad to hear that McCormacks music shop in the centre of Glasgow has shut down; I spent many hours over the years staring at the guitars and amps - as well as buying music gear. I wasn't my fault guv.
I played a gig with Dave Acari in Edinburhg a few weeks ago; Dave was particularly explosive that night; musically speaking of course.
