Seven Wonders ....
The CBC ... that's like the BBC only with a 'C' for Canadian ... had a poll asking for suggestions for the 7 wonders of Canada ... Like Niagara Falls, the Rockies, the biggest pile of moose droppings. So I thought (I do this occasionally) that you guys might like to suggest the 7 wonders of Accy. Some things come to mind: the house I first lived in, the pub in which I had my first beer, the cinema seat in which I first managed to get a girl's bra off, without embarrassing myself ... you know things like that.
 So, what are the 7 wonders of Accy? |

Re: Seven Wonders ....
The Tiffany glass collection at Howarth Art Gallery would surely have a place....and I think the Viaduct is pretty impressive too....especially with a bit of cloudless blue sky behind it.
