An odyssey to the west

This blog will document the entire event of my trip to Canada and its preparation work. Be warned: occasional crapping and irrelevant details about my life will also be featured in this blog.

Royal Canadian Regimental Museum and the Christmas Parade at downtown (Part 2)

More pictures taken at the museum. For the more perceptive readers, you would have noticed that we have taken the most pictures at this museum. A casual mention by the way, the entry to the museum cost us $4 Canadian dollars (S$6.4), hence, taking our money's worth of picture was a priority in this visit.











Small arms used by the regiment, I'm pretty darn sure that gamers from 'Call of Duty' will be able to recognize most of them. Most conspicious of them all, the Stan submachine gun used by paratroopers and commandos.



Medals of honour.


The regiment's signal equipments.



Dioramas depicting trench warfare, brutal and often senseless attempts to advance into 'No man's land' to seize the enemies' trench almost always resulted in heavy casualties until the invention of tanks.



At one point of time, the idea of taking pictures with the mannequins and striking silly pose was simply too hard to resist.
