So I haven't actually flown out yet, but I'm planning to.. In 9 hours. I just wanted to get my fans pumped up to read more about my adventures.

It's snowing a lot outside (in GFPK). I foresee a nice 1.5 hour bus ride from downtown Montreal to PET airport.

... da minha mãe, com algumas adaptações. Não ficou no ponto ideal, mas ainda tenho mais dois pedaços de frango pra cozinhar. As três coisas que eu quero fazer quando chegar ao Brazil são: matar a saudade de Pingo, rever minha família e comer um galeto na receita original da minha mãe.

Waehrend die Europaeer Quebec und Ontario als den Osten Kanadas ansehen, werden die zwei Provinzen als Central Canada bezeichnet. Der Osten wuerde naemlich noch die Maritime Provinces - Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia und New Foundland/Labrodor umfassen.

Voyez vous-mêmes! Perrine, je parle en ton nom, mais on ne vous en veut pas les gars! Le hockey, c'est quand même mieux que le foot!

... in Hakoke, and too many other places to list. Top 5 faces of Japan: 1) Natural - mountains, lakes, hot springs, volcanos and stunning scenery. 2) Traditional - temples, shrines, ancient castles, culture and geisha. 3) Ultra-modern - electronics, technology, neon and flashing lights. 4) Gastronomical - food markets, sushi, noodles and culinary delights. 5) Fashionable - from high-end couture to Harajuku hip to business suits to kimono, whatever they wear, the ...

... area containing an information centre, (gee guess we were a little impatient for our cuppa!) Ok let's head in and get a road map of the province and any information about Montreal. Great except they have a "number system" to get information, similar to our RTA, you take a number and wait until you are called, GREAT! EXCEPT it is all in FRENCH!. Ok we take our turn and ask for a road map, The Young lady spoke in English with a very heavy French accent ...

... some bus tickets that I had left over and said goodbye to JP, Normand and his cute grey striped cat, Leo. He was meowing this morning, so I fed him and I think we shared a moment, there in the morning light shining in the kitchen window. After getting a little turned around driving to the train station, I told Josh to visit Ottawa sometime. Someone must organize a large(ish) event in Ottawa like Laurence did in Quebec methinks.

Though it may prove too easy for me to rely on others to make the switch, rather than me pick up the language... I have come across a cultural paradigm, there is tangible difference between being in a foreign country that is similar to home and one that is not... I have found that the language and cultural barrier between Montreal and Australia ...
