Cedar Point, Ohio aka Instant Tourettes


0 to 125mph in 4seconds
420 feet high
17seconds of pure aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh mother f&%$r sh%$* ahhhhaAAHH wholly cr!@p

Welcome to Sandusky Ohio or San Too Chee b4 anglicized, city of cold water. Why o why would we go there? Cedar Point. We got there at late at night, camped out instantly passed out and then woke up early the next day. Doors opened at 10am and closed at 10pm. 12 hours of awesome.

After we got kicked out of the place we returned to our campsite. After some struggling we got a good fuego going, fixed ourselves some hot dogs, grilled cheese and downed it with some scotch. Perfect!

Falling Over Canada















So in the end, Toronto was OK. After much deliberation, the only cool things about the city are a really tall tower and free beer thanks to a local brewery. So...Toronto.

Last stop in Canada was Niagara Falls. They was impressive. Unlike the people who parked, got out of their car and said "So this is Niagara Falls...Check, next stop" and drove away, we actually went closer to the falls. WE did have to walk a while because we parked in the duty free parking lot, not knowing that the only exit was to the United States, so we walked the mile to the falls. It is hard to describe the falls in words, so hopefully I'll be able to get pictures online.

Crossing the border to the US was a lot easier than going into Canada.
Border Agent:"What were you doing in Canada?"
Me: "Traveling"
Border Agent "Welcome back!"

So no war on Canada. It wasn't a bad place.

Canadian Bacon

Oh Canada! For some strange reason the Canadian boarder patrol did not want to let us in quickly. What is so suspicious about a shaggy white kid and his Mexican friend with a car full of god knows what? Only a small delay (due to the fact that the Canadian customs agent could not wrap her head around why we would go all the way to Quebec when there were closer cities), it was off to Quebec City...or was it. After about thirty seconds of deliberation we decided to save ourselves three hours and go to Montreal. It was wonderful city that is an odd mix of Georgetown and Adams Morgan, where all the ATMs don`t like Visa cards.

We are currently in Toronto. I don`t have much to say about this city yet, except for the fact that there is no french here, unlike Montreal. So far I have found no reason to declare war on this country, but I still have at least one more day here)

That´s all for now. Pictures are comming soon (hopefuly video too).

Planning has officially began for the trip to conquer all trips.  Once finals calm down some, we shall hunt down a car and plan out our route with more details than "West then south."
