Train, Train, Train, stop, switch, Train, Train...

Have you ever used the internet while traveling over 110kph?
Until today I hadn't either. I guess you normally have to pay to use the wireless on the train, but it seems to be having difficulty with their high-speed, something to do with their satellite uplink right now, so they're offering it for free. It's like wireless dial-up! I'll just have to wait to download the new Transformers movie  until I get a better connection.

I wrote this earlier, when I ate breakfast:

"Some business men talk about percentages by the window over breakfast. Projector screens on the brick walls play sports channels while the satellite radio plays 80's 'safe' rock. THe waitress greets me in french, then switches to english. I use a littel french, but I'm not fooling anyone. This place seems to have a similar feel as it's twin in Halifax. I'm at the Peel pub in Montreal, just a block away from the train station, and breakfast is yummy. I think
_juju_ would approve."

That's all for now.
Sâlut!

See you in Toronto.
