Bonjour that's hi in french. Be ins that we almost live in Canada i may as well learn a little(ha ha). I found some where to use a computer to let everyone one whats going on. We are in Napierville,Quebec Canada and we went to see a little town St.Jean they had a Wal-Mart. But nothing like the U.S.. We then walked around the outside to see the other stores. Didn`t buy anything, darn. We went to visit Ft Lennox and that was exciting to see its on an island you have to take the ferry there. They have lots of old stuff from in the 1800`s that was buried in the ground. Then the next day we went to a drive thought safari got to see lots of wild animals and walk though a tunnel to see the lions and tigers under the glass that was great got lots of pictures. Then there was a little water park that you can to into but we didn`t know that so i watched Maverick on the play ground while Jim and Bob saw the bikini`s. We raced on saturday night some of our friends that we met in Mexico came down. It was good to see them again. Then it rained on Sunday. So we didn`t do nothing. I hope to go see the church of Norte Dame in Montreal tomorrow. So my friends and family stay cool where you are. And hope to find another computer to write more to you. Jim and W.W |

Still in Canada
Bonjour from Canada
| Bonjour my friends. I am at the library to use the computer. We have been to so many places, where do i start. We were in North Bay Ontario,Canada. Went to see the Wal-Mart there and it is not like the U.S.. We saw the river and they had a carnival there. We raced there then went to Napierville Quebec, Canada. We went to see Fort Lennox there it was built in in 1800's. The original buildings are still there and lots of the artifacts that were buried on the island. They showed a toothbrush that was made with wood and it at like horse hair , but that was gone already. It was neat to see how they sleep in the barracks and the officers had their only quarters. To get the men to enlist they could bring their family with them and live in the bar racks. The next day we went to the park safari. That was good to drive thought and see the animals running around and come to your car. But the car over heated and they didn't like the smell. It took a long time to get thought because once it cooled down then we would drive fast and then stop. Then after wards in the same park they had a water park, but we didn't know that so, i watched Maverick on the play ground. While Jim and Bob watched the bikinis. We went to see the church of Norte Dame in Montreal and that was just beautiful. To see all the detail work and carving, the stain glass and the organ pipes. We then went on a horse carriage ride around town to see all the old town and Maverick blew up to our little Chinese boy because of the hay that we didn't see any around, but he got a whiff of it. So now we are in Elliott Lake Ontario, to race here and we went to the look out tower. I am learning some of the basic words of french. When we were in Napierville some of our friends that we met in Mexico came down to see us race that was the first time they had been to the races. They loved what we do, but think that we are crazy. It was good to see them and we will meet in Mexico again. We saw the movie Hancock in St. Thomas Ontario and that was a good movie i will get the DVD when it comes outs.Well my friends and family stay cool where ever you are and will write more.

In Canada
| Sorry folks but in Canada there aren't very many hot spots for you to keep up with mail. We have been racing in Canada been to North Bay, Toronto, St Thomas, in Ontario. And now we will be going to Napierville, we were in Luskville Quebec. Then we go back to Elliott Lake, Ontario. Racing has been real good this year to visit lots of Canada. And back to U.S. I will then go to Atlanta to drop Maverick off he has to start school in August. And come back to go to Luskville Quebec to race again. We have seen lots of different things here. We went to see a bee hive factory. Got to see Jumbo the elephant that was killed by a train in 1889. He was the largest African elephant every. He belong to Barnum Bailey Circus. We went to see the Parliament in Ottawa. That was very cool to walk thought the building. They have the library there that is the only original part of the building. They varnished the wood and the fumes caught the wood on fire, they closed the steel doors to the library and that what saved it. They also have a book in there that is 4 million dollars. We saw to movies on bargain day. Kung Fu Panda, then Hancock. Who ones whats next for us to see? Other then lots of beautiful country. Well my friends stay cool where ever you live. And will write more when we get intern net again. Jim and W.W |
