View of Hamilton, Ontario with Burlington at the far end of the causeway

July 2007 – On a flight from Boston to Chicago O’Hare we got a great view over the western tip of Lake Ontario, the crest of the Golden Horseshoe area in Ontario, Canada. The Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) follows the lake shore and connects the Niagara Peninsula to Toronto.

There’s a skyway to allow ships travelling from Lake Ontario to Hamilton Harbor, a triangle in itself.
