Canadian road trip


My wife and I have decided to take a road trip for a long weekend .We considered Niagara falls ,Quebec city and Prince Edward Island .We choose Prince Edward Island.For those unaware as to where that is ,it's northeast Canada north of New Brunswick.It's lay ed back and agricultural area.The book Anne of Green Gables was written there .I believe the book was based on the area .We'll go up in August and the weather should be nice .It's an English speaking area and they have Toilet paper.Theres a lot of street shows and street music .I've also met a lot of Corvette people from the area.The people are very friendly and treat strangers as family.


Time wise it'll be about a 8-9 hr drive and we'll stay about three nights relaxing.Hopefully we can run topless a lot of the time . I may actually take and post a few photos.

VB, I like you a lot, and I hear your wife is a beautiful woman...but if she is anywhere near as old as you, will you please refrain from posting pictures of her topless? smiley5.gif

I have to admit, speaking English and using toilet paper are high on my list!thumb.gif

I been to Camada, western Camada twice........Big city, the beer is not kept in a cooler.
It just sits in the middle of the licker store, hot, but I don't care beer tastes like cow piss anyway. The general pop isn't fond of bikers, but neither was my mom.

The lady in guard booth asked what was my purpose in coming to Canada, I locked up,
I didn't know what to say.........finally I blurted out, cuz I aint never been here before. She laughed.
Then she said where are you coming from, ha that was easy, I said America...opps
she said you mean the US? I said oh, yeah the US.......Who calls America the US?

So I'm in Canada and Im looking for gas, I see the sign for the price of gas and I thought man thats cheap, but it was liters.........it was twice as much.......
Theres huge gorge in town with one of those swinging bridges you know like in Indie Jones.

I got in the middle of and started shaking up and down the women were screaming and my bro was hanging on for dear life and the park ranger went off on me......it was fun.

I got some of thier monopoly money and when I was leaving Canada I tried to give away but no takers they kept telling me it was good in the US and it was.........

Funny about Canada liberal immigration policies........mostly rag heads there.......
I don't really care for rag heads, but they make some really big fire crackers.

Have a good trip bro, I hope my tips have been helpful for ya.

I was actually married in Canada when we lived only 10 miles from the boarder.Hell it was something to do one Saturday when we we're boarded.

The US dollar is worth about 12% more than the Canadian dollar .

We now need a passport which isn't a problem ,I had several made with different names .

It'll seem good to just walk the city and eat at street cafes and drink a little wine .

Did someone say wine!!!! I was a real Budweiser fan for many years. Then when I hit about 55, I'd have to start taking those chunks of chalk, chew them up, swallow them down, just so I could drink some beer and not blast off! Short story, wine is fine, still take down some chalk if more than a glass but hardly blast off now that I am 60. Must be the bubbles that get to me! confuse

Ken I got the cure for that, your gut is out of balance......I think its the pilori bacteria
or something like that........its beer all those years it really tweaks the gut.

Zantac works good, oemprazole is good too.
Switching from beer to wine only fools the gut for awhile. Not drinking is better but its extremely boring and it could lead to a divorce.

Or you could go to an interist quack to balance out your bacteria......

Me I live on Omeprazole, the chalk, potassuim gluconate, for the muscle cramps, you know ones that makes jump out of bed in the middle of the night, and last but not least Hydrochloride.....the hallucinations are a little wierd, but once you get use to them they're cool...........but stay away from zinc...........its turns your hair blonde......

If you want more hair try iron........don't know if its works but I read that it did.

 Well Doctor, it sure sounds like you know what you're talking about. I do take Aciphex for heartburn. If I do the chalk thing (TUMS), I can usually survive. But sometimes I do wake up with cramps 100 times worse than women get during you know when. Love my glass or two of wine but sure would like a few beers now and then without letting the universe know! But you are right on, I can have rough times with wine also. I HATE GETTING OLD! it takes the fun out of a buzz! Someone told me to eat cultured Yogurt.

BTW, I have plenty of hair and it isn't falling out yet. That is probably down the road soon. OH BOY, something else to  look forward to! no

I wanna go. I love Canada, and I have some good friends in Port Dover. I'm kinda tired right now, and UBER pissed at my retard of an ex-husband, but when I chill out, I'll tell you about a spontaneous road trip to Port Dover, Ontario I made with a bunch of Vette friends, just to attend a car show. We were the talk of the town......

Did I mention that my ex-husband is a retard?

We got back from a fun weekend even thought it rained most of the time .

The dog was alright but pizzed about not being able to watch TV while we we're gone.

Car drove great ,just what you'd expect from a Corvette.

What I didn't see :driving with cell phones ,14 year old girls with their thongs hanging out,Obscene Tee shirts ,whole body tattoo's,no one ran a red light or even a yellow ,Everyone was polite ,no public profanity .Stores including Wal mart close Sat afternoon at 5 pm and are closed Sunday to be with family.

The island has about 150,000 people and the island is about a mile across and three miles long.They fish and farm .

Ford is the largest selling vehicle .They keep their lawns looking perfect .Their houses are well maintained.

Sunday afternoon the son came out for three hours and I wish i'da remembered my camera.There is a two hour stage show given by the Island teens.One young lady started it off with Celtic tap dancing .After awhile she sang the Irish song "oh Danny boy".she did it with a great range of voice. She closed the show with "Wabash Cannon Ball " on a violin .I've never heard anyone wind on a violin like that . She was 15 years old.

Got home Monday eve about 8 pm ,had 16 voice mails .
