Brondesbury Villas, the street on which we live, taken when approaching from Kilburn High Road. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.	Further down the street, my apartment is in the second house on the left (the first brown one). It has a metal gate. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.	A huge maple leaf. Notice the tall maple trees in the previous pictures? Their leaves often cover the sidewalk, which isn't hard considering how large the leaves are. I took this picture to prove their enormousness. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.	The row of identical townhouses directly across the street from my apartment. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.
My side of the street has a bit more diverse architecture. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.	There are more brownstones down past my house (i.e., toward Queen's Park). I took this picture on November 24, 2010.	Farther down Brondesbury Villas are boxier houses with colored patterned glass above their windows (hard to see in this picture). I took this picture on November 24, 2010.	Brondesbury Road, a parallel street to ours, about a block from our apartment. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.
The trees on this street have leaves that turn a more vibrant yellow than our maples. Nonetheless, I prefer walking down my street because I never get sick of gazing in awe at the size of the maple leaves. I took this picture on November 10, 2010.	Brondesbury Road (still), on the way to Queen's Park (one high street near us). I walk down this road this direction to get to Queen's Park. (In contrast, when I go to work, I walk down my own street, Brondesbury Villas, to Kilburn High Road.) I took this picture on November 24, 2010.	Brondesbury Road almost at Queen's Park. I like these houses. I took this picture on November 24, 2010.	Donaldson Road, off Brondesbury Road, is lined with classy white houses. I took this picture on November 24, 2010.
Honiton Road, off Victoria Road, is two blocks farther on. I took this picture on December 5, 2010.	Charteris Road, a little nook of a road, is festooned with satellite dishes. Also note the family of pigeons. We found this street by accident when looking for a shortcut to a restaurant. I took this picture on December 5, 2010.	Glengall Road, near Hazelmere Road, two blocks from the previous picture. I took this picture on December 5, 2010.
Snow!
In early December it snowed. This is our house's backyard garden, which is actually the responsibility of the apartment beneath us: we're not allowed to go down there but nor do we have to maintain it. I took this picture on December 1, 2010.	Ibid, the following day after it snowed more that night. I took this picture on December 2, 2010.	Brondesbury Villas after the heavier snowfall. I took this picture on December 2, 2010.
