Poor Little Finger
You shot that poor camera to death! Oh well, I bet you my dad could take twice as many pictures of only water (Thats how bad it is people!) Who knew driving should be full of life and death situations. And we'll have to break your dad into good ol' Canadian beer again, get him away from the Italiano liquor.

Bonjour!
I'd be lyeing if I said I read much past the third entry (7 journals is a lot for one day), but it looks like a good time over there. I especially enjoyed the stadium and the tatties (Canadian boys love tatties!). Anyhow we'll have to get together for our once a year T.A. reunion so you can show me some more highlights; looks like there is a ton to see. Enjoy the rest of your trip: as someone who's only been as far as Key Largo, Florida, I have to say you are a lucky gal.
