First thoughts...

Well, what can I say...we finally made it! Yes, the Anderson family is now in Canadian territory. We are all healthy and somewhat cozy in our new canadian condo. The condo is very nice in an Ikea sort of way. The sun rises at 4 am which makes the curtains made of Kleenex a very, very bad idea. We are staying in "vieux-Montreal" which is the old, more historic part of the city. Fully aware of my American egocentricity, I am still suprised by the distinctly French-Canadian culture found here. Amy and I have already had difficulty communicating with various people. Diaper shopping was especially challenging for Amy until her charades finally prompted another customer to shout, " Ahh! For sh**?" Responding with a resounding, "Oui!" she was promptly escorted to the diaper aisle. OK, well its time for bed, we only have a few more hours of darkness and I don't plan to waste them.

---Arrivederci

Bob, everytime you buy something there I expect you to ask, "Quel est la PRIX?" in honor of Gettys.

Do you also live on Rue St.?
