Canada
I am pleasantly suprised to see my We're Going to be Friends video, which I posted on YouTube back in April, has had 2,222 hits and been 'favorited' 22 times. Okay, so Spike Jonze may not be knocking on my door anytime soon but it is a lot of 2s. There must be a lot of White Stripes fans out there.From time to time, people ask me in emails when I am returning to Australia. Well after my phone call with some cow at British Airways, my flight has been scheduled to arrive in Adelaide at noon on June 5th 2007 - just in time for lunch. That is the very latest I could book it for (its an 18 month ticket) but, of course, dates could always be brought forward depending on circumstances. I like to think it will remain as is.
I have started to make plans for Canada. Based on the advise I was given by Kate Mackenzie, I think I will definetely head for Banff (or Banfford as I like to call it). Banff is a resort town in the Rocky Mountains in south-west Alberta, on the British Columbian border. It has a population of around 8,000 people and is the highest town elevation in Canada. I am thinking I may take the 38 hour train ride from LA which will have me arrive in Vancouver about a half hour into Christmas day.
After a day or two I would take the 14 hours bus drive to Banff. Such a lengthy travel time is a bit daunting but it would be great to see all that beautiful scenery. I may, however, opt for the plane ride to Calgary. My decision to go to Canada will be dependent on what I hear about job oppurtunities in January.

SO no Josh for Xmas hey . . . .
Sure we'll cope one way or another . . . train and stuff is a great way to see the countryside but I find that a day or two tend to be the limit. After that you don't mind the bullet train or plane options so much!
I loved Canada in the short time I was there. Well worth a look I'd think though perhaps not in the early hours of Xmas morn . .
