2. Shared a cab home from Pearson with Carson and the world's most ancient slowest cabbie, who insisted on driving 60 km/h in the passing lane on the 427, at midnight, while the other cabs, going 120 km/h leaned on their horns.

As you can see, there was plenty of time for photos in Québec. CS & I arrived at 9:00 am and the boat didn't arrive until 4:30 pm, but since they were training cadets, it took them an hour to put the gangway out. We had an enthusiastic reception. They really want us to charter this vessel. Maybe we will. But now... I am exhausted... so more later.

I am lucky to get sent around Canada (instead of other nations) for a change. This country is so varied and beautiful!
