Back in town!

Sorry for the absence folks, while in the Rockies there was no internet. What a fantastic place it is though.
I was staying with friends in the Kananaskis park, just near Banff, and the scenery was amazing. Over the weekend we went hiking, rock-climbing, fishing, drinking, I saw all the sights, did some drives etc etc. In 4 days however, i couldn't see everything, so i'll just have to go back!

Montreal is great. Been here 2 days now. Yesterday I wandered around old Montreal and downtown. It's surreal to be walking around a Canadian city and everyone is speaking French! The place is absolutely packed as it is GP weekend here. I went to the track today, it's in an island in the middle of the river made out of the dirt that they dug up to create the metro.
Not as good as the Melbourne GP, not as many support races etc, and there is less space for general admission people to stand, so it will be packed on sunday. I think i have scoped out a couple of good places to watch the race from. Should be a good day!

Tomorrow: More Montreal, a friend is visiting from Ottowa.
Song of the Day: Life In The Fast Lane - The Eagles.
