On my recent trip to Ontario I visited Trent University where I worked for over 20 years prior to my retirement.
I sauntered around its lovely campus, snapping pictures with fresh eyes.

The original intent of the "groundhog" ramp was to provide critters
with access to the roof. |

Horror film, "Urban Legend: The Final cut" was filmed at Trent. |

Hogworts ? Nope. It's the Champlain College dining hall, aka
the Great Hall. |
 |
| Flowers are everywhere. |

The Trent main campus spans the Otonabee River. Red canoes
await the excited children of the Trent Summer Sports Camp |

While crossing the bridge over the river I encountered the
new-fangled, Google bike.

OMG (giggle) am I going to be on Google Earth ?
Trent University seems to be in a very picturesque setting! I never heard of a Google bike before. I'd love to go canoeing in one of those red canoes!

Thanks ingebrita. The Trent campus is a lovely combination of interesting architecture and natural beauty.
ReplyDeleteThe Google bike is just a mini version of the car one and goes places cars can't go. I think it's pretty new as I'd never heard of it before.
It was years ago that I read "Passages" too but it made an impression on me.
Happy paddling.
