Traditional shots with the youngest of the family and some similar-sized buddies:

Outside Union Station, down town Toronto, with the CN Tower in background:

LEFty taking in a game between the Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Yankees, at Rogers Center, Toronto:

LEFty rides up front on a trip to Niagara Falls:

LEFty gets the best seat again for a quick flight to Calgary (avoiding those thunderstorms!):

Before flying down to San Francisco to visit the winding Lombard Street:

Alacatraz (at a distance!):

and, of course, the Golden Gate Bridge before heading back to Ontario:

First off he meets up with Fab 1 and a model of Ade’s GT3 on Ade’s garden model railway, The Stourvale line:

Then it’s on to the real thing at The Severn Valley Railway:

The more sight seeing around Clee Hill & Ironbridge:

LEFty took a trip to the worlds oldest motor racing venue, Shelsley Walsh:

Finaly LEFty set off on a camping trip around the North of England, who knows where he’ll end up next:

Hohenems, Austria https://www.thelotusforums.com/lefty/hohenems-austria/ Wed, 17 Feb 2010 15:07:05 +0000 http://www.thelotusforums.com/lefty/?p=259 Unfortunately the pictures of LEFty’s visit to Hohenems seem to have suffered from some technical problems.

It’s a great shame as LEFty managed to squeeze in sky diving, show girls, swimming with sharks, a hoon with a couple of F1 cars, a couple of film premiers (although too much to drink at an after show party lead to some embarrassing behaviour and a night behind bars but we wont go there) and snowboarding down the Alps!

Alas, all the pictures have been lost so you’ll just have to take our word for it that LEFty had a great time!

Admiring the view out to vessels passing in the fog:

Looking at the Schelde:

Vlissingen is the birthplace of Navel Admiral Michiel de Ruyter, LEFty goes for a visit to his statue:

Still feeling nautical LEFty takes a look at a Dutch pilot boat:

Before retuning to Freek’s home to relax in the sunshine:

On his arrival with Jukka & Sissi LEFty is great by a few familiar sized friends as well as another big brother:

Then it was on to Hämeenlinna for a bit of sightseeing:

Admiring the view at the top of the tower:

LEFty hitting it off with the ladies as usual!

A visit to Häme Castle:

Then LEFty cleared his pipes out at a hot sauna:

LEFty was itching to joining at Ahvenisto Race Circuit:

A visit to a friends farm saw LEFty mixing with some alpacas (I don’t think he liked the smell!)

A balloon ride was planned but bad weather meant the was the closets LEFty was going to get to the skies:

Still, the views are pretty good on the ground in these parts, even at LEFty’s height:
