Casino Windsor - Hotel

Phew... Going through US Customs was a bit trying... No searching but a lot of questions meant - I supposed - to catch us with something bad... Who knows. We did not loose any meal. We're in the middle of a fairground, with a weak WiFi but OK. The only analog TV channels are from Detroit but the Detroit area offers 22 digital channels, many

... I have for a while unless they can make them out of kimchi in Korea. My flight in wasn't bad, but I didn't get much sleep. Time to work on the TEFL though, so I will end my entry here unless something interesting happens between now and my flight, which isn't for 3 more hours! Sweet layover!

... stores wherever we travel. I'm already planning on buying another suitcase in Australia to carry home all my goodies (which I know I'll collect).
So much for not knowing anyone. Bill got a call from a friend yesterday who was talking to an acquaintance of his who was telling him about a cruise he was taking, and wouldn't you know it, it's the one we're on ...

The morning leaving the island was quite surreal for me.  For the first time that I can remember I was properly prepared for a trip with a surplus of time to leisurely pack my belongings.  Suprisingly, I did not mentally prepare myself for the fact that I would be living in a foreign country for the better half of a year.  On this particular day, I solely was thinking about finally escaping my tiny hometown.  I have to admit that at some points this summer I speculated whether or not my ...

About 10 k's up the road we join the queue to enter America. 1 hour later we are at the booth with a similar stern guy at first asking questions and then 2 minutes later wanting to know all about our trip. He asks us for our rego papers and passports for ID. We head off and about 500 yards (sorry Metres) Cath asks me if I've got the rego papers I say no and pull over. What else to do but to walk back to the checkpoint. I get ...

... to everyone for the drinks. We definitely enjoyed them! My hair looked awesome thanks to the great cut from Mike at Cabello! I am afraid that is the best my hair is going to look for the next 101 days as I have limited hair product and may not even have a hair dryer some days! PS - our pics have been downloaded on our home PC. Jackie and Ange have added some to Facebook. Thanks Ladies! I will have to add more in June.

As it was right next door and a short bus trip over we decided to go to Windsor for a couple of hours before the game and have donuts at Tim Hortons. Walked around town and enjoyed the afternoon there. Bought a few souveniers and headed back over to Detroit to get ready for Game 1 of the 2006 World Series.

... of what it is! Eventually Jordan found one in Walmart USA. It's like a mix of Chinese mar-jong and playing cards. It has 106 tiles (imagine 2 sets of playing cards, numbered 1 - 13 in 4 colours - black, red, orange, blue; plus 2 jokers), and the objective of the game is to get rid of all your tiles ASAP. It's easy to learn and addictive. Click here to find out more about Rummikub We've been playing it regularly and becoming ...

... good structure (I still cannot figure out why he used the analogy of temple for a woman??), but you have things to fix here and there, sometimes the roof is leaking water, something the window, sometimes the floor. In general it is fine. And by the way, your daughter inherited what you have.' During a long time of my life, I have accepted that minor sickness is a good friend of mind. It could ...

... list of music styles to choose from including, strangely, "punk" and "punk rock". But the one that really threw me was "Porn Groove" !? What the hell is this? Are people actually collecting and making music that sounds like a porno track? How lame... Hope every one has a good new years, being as exciting or as mellow as you'd like... You are all lame asses regarding the walnuts so 3 lucky people I have chosen "randomly" will be getting some in the mail...
