Canada seems to be a very popular place, judging by the brutal line in which we had to wait at the border. Vancouver's a place where you can find a public library branch inside a mini-mall, across the way from a place that sells fetish footwear. It is a city of variable height that lies ensconced in a mountainside, which reminds me a lot of Quito, except for the fact that there's more oxygen here.

Seattle hasn't changed. I missed it being here.

Portland's a speed trap. Do not attempt to drive through it.

Hee. Was that near Granville Street downtown? I was hanging around the central public library on Robson when they had a fire alarm. Was that you? :P

Vancouver also has rain.


Lots of rain.


Last winter featured rain pretty well non-stop from mid-September to April.


I hate rain now. I used to think it was pretty inoffensive, but now I loathe it down to the very bottom of my soul.

Portland struck me as a nightmare for drivers. Fortunately, most of the things I had time to see were on the MAX light-rail line or at least near it. They have a branch of the Todai all-you-can-eat sushi buffet, too.

Hey Now this sure sounds like a fun enjoy yourselves! I bet that will not be hard to do as long as you don't get a ticket in Oregon...

1) Er ... What is fetish footwear? You can either tell me or show me when I come to visit next. I'll be wearing closed-toe shoes.

2) You said: Seattle hasn't changed. I missed it.

How'd you do that? Aren't there lots of turnoffs? It was that big city on the left a little while after the TacomaDome (or whatever it's called - where I saw Jimmy Page & Robert Plant a decade ago) and a little while before you get to Canada. How'd you miss it?

Heh, heh . . .
