Wednesday, June 25, 2008

After braving the fitness trail at the crack of dawn:



our spirits slowed when we were unable to find a place to eat breakfast in "town", and forced to subsist on McDonalds. My day was almost ruined when I realized that they gave me a McMuffin instead of a McGriddle, killing my goal of enjoying the tastes of: an english muffin like object and pancake and egg and sausage and syrup, all in each and every bite. Sigh. I made do.

Our first milestone of the day was entering Canada, where we learned two valuable pieces of information:

    • Do not have jobs
    • Obviously do not have any pets suffocating in the backseat
