Hey @EGYPTAIR - what's with your Toronto Call Centre? When I called, I was put on hold, and after 3 hours, it just disconnected. How can I "Enjoy the Sky" with service like this?

Fall day, Ottawa. Shot across the river in Gatineau, Quebec. We’ve been lucky, weather-wise this autumn. instagr.am/p/Cker0rCpyMs/

My kinda bucket list. Spotted this ennead of buckets at SHED Chetwyn Farms in Prince Edward County, Ontario. The farm raises alpacas 🦙, which have to be one of the most adorable animals. These buckets were on the wall of the converted chicken coop … instagr.am/p/CjWDeURvp45/

Crowfoot Mountain doesn't get all the attention that many other mountains in Banff National Park. But a large amount of visitors to the Park will spend time near it. It sits above Bow Lake, on the Icefields Parkway that connects Banff and Jasper. It's a … instagr.am/p/ChVJ7DTpLs2/

Lake Louise is a magnet for fun-seekers, any season of the year. In the summer, canoeing on the lake is one of the must-do activities for many visitors. With scenery like this, even those who've never paddled a canoe before take the opportunity. © Ian … instagr.am/p/ChK5CXspq6b/

Castle Mountain - surely one of the most beautiful mountains in the Canadian Rockies. You could spend all day photographing this mountain, and never bore of it. It looks amazing, always. © Ian Robert Knight for @photoworkshopadventures - The World's Mo… instagr.am/p/ChFnteMpPue/

Emerald Lake, one of Yoho National Park's gems, is a delight to see any time of day and any time of year. The little chalets you see on that island spit belong to Emerald Lake Lodge. It boasts a technology-lite approach to lodging, with no cell service… instagr.am/p/ChDLC6IP6Du/

Pictures, or it didn't happen! We all know that the only reason you'd get into a canoe at Lake Louise is to take selfies. Right? How did generations before manage to canoe without taking social proof images?? © Ian Robert Knight for @PhotoWorkshopAd… instagr.am/p/Cg5EASIPo1t/

Two Jack Lake is quite close to Banff town centre, and an ideal place to wind down and relax. This lake is a haven for canoeists, kayakers, and standup paddle boarders. And it's a great place to watch a sunset. © Ian Robert Knight for @photoworkshopadve… instagr.am/p/Cg2UC6uPjyW/

The Vermilion Lakes, just on the edge of Banff village are a wonderful place to catch a sunrise, like this one. There are 3 lakes linked together, and during the daytime you'd see canoes and standup paddle boards dotting the lakes. The big mountain is Mt… instagr.am/p/Cgzt5akJ2cc/

It’s a well-known fact that you haven’t truly been to Toronto unless you have this photo. The reflecting pool / ice rink (depending on the season) was not filled, but it’s still cool. © Ian Robert Knight instagr.am/p/CdN8BGTuGmd/

This is the Phra Thinang Dusit Maha Prasat, or Throne Hall. It's where high ranking members of the royal family would lie in state for 100 days after death. It's usually one of the last buildings people see as they exit the Grand Palace complex. © Ian Ro… instagr.am/p/CdLWCiiMbnn/

This is one of 7 gates allowing entry to the Temple of the Emerald Buddha grounds. This one is located on the east wall, directly across from the Royal Pantheon. It's unusual, in that it has an elephant mounting stand (outside the gate), so you could arr… instagr.am/p/CdIxPtILoNQ/

This is one of two Phra Suvarnachedi that sit outside the Royal Pantheon in Bangkok's Temple of the Emerald Buddha and Grand Palace complex. This specific chedi commemorates the father of the first King (Rama I) of the Thai Chakri dynasty. Surrounding t… instagr.am/p/CdGMcyzsIKi/

Another shot of Prasat Phra Thep Bidon, which is usually crawling with selfie-stick-wielding tourists, but wonderfully empty on this day. This building, was originally meant to house the Emerald Buddha, but it never did. In fact, this is the second build… instagr.am/p/CdDnqN3MygE/

This is one of 8 prangs that form a row along the eastern wall of the Temple of the Emerald Buddha at Bangkok's Grand Palace complex. Each one is painted in a different colour, representing a different aspect of Buddhism. This light blue one is dedicated… instagr.am/p/Cc75RfBOXI-/

One of the things I find really fascinating inside Bangkok's Grand Palace complex are the huge murals painted on the walls of the buildings. I could spend hours looking at the artwork, and always find new things to see. It's exceptionally detailed work, … instagr.am/p/Cc5UgEhOB1V/

The building on the left is Ho Phra Monthiantham, a scripture hall and library, built with proceeds from King Rama I's brother. Beside it, on the right, is Prasat Phra Thep Bidon, or the Royal Pantheon. It contains lifelike statues of the previous 9 king… instagr.am/p/Cc2vtU_OSky/

Taking advantage of a time when hardly anyone is around, the Grand Palace gets a much-needed scrubbing. On the day I visited the grounds, power washers were out in full force. Having the worker in the photo really gives a sense of the scale of the stupa.… instagr.am/p/Cc0K4p6MPCD/

This is the Phra Si Rattana Chedi, which was built in 1855, in a style inspired by the stupas in Sri Lanka. It contains relics of Buddha gifted to King Mongkut (Rama IV) by Sri Lanka. It's covered in imported Italian gold-coloured tiles. It's really quit… instagr.am/p/CcxmIRuObud/
