Montreal

I am back from a feverish trip to la belle province. James and Marie picked me up from Ottawa in the driving rain and went to Montreal to meet Josh. I don't have time to write a whole lot now, but the highlight of trip was no doubt when the car burst into smoke and we pulled to the side of the road. After much cursing the car was towed to a nearby Canadian Tire for inspection. Other highlights included Harold and Maude, marauding raccoons and skunks at our campsite near Oka, driving in a shocked silence through an RV park, forgetting flashlights for the camping, being abused by a three year old québecois boy on the beach, the chocolate museum, and the fine crêpes on the final morning. I may write more later, but for now, here are the equivalent of 30,000 words.

Tomorrow I'm headed in another direction, BC. Will write more from there.
