i'm here to tell you that you haven't lived until you've seen the floral clock near Niagara, Canada.



Quote:
Originally built by Ontario Hydro in 1950, this site features a floral design with upwards of 16,000 carpet bedding plants. The design is changed twice each year. The spring display features viola, while the summer/fall display features four cultivars of Alternanthera along with the green and grey forms of Santolina Sage. California Golden Privet is used for contrast, as is Blue Festuca Grass from time to time.

well, i suppose i *could* have reacted that way, but the source of my astonishment would have been that that thing rated as any kind of tourist attraction, particularly in light of its location, rather than the thing itself.

that's because during Farking Winter, time stops. surely you must have noticed that.

I'm guessing you don't want to see the list and pictures of "The Big [insert name of local product]" tourist attractions we have down this way? If I recall correctly, The Big Merino's testicles rest on the gift shop (though this story could be apocryphal).

Cheers,
