Oh Canada

Well, I went to Canada to spend a week with my wife's family. We flew
into Buffulo NY, drove across the border into Niagra and then drove to
Missassagua (a suburb of Toronto). Much to my suprise, Canada was pretty much exactly like America (at least the part of Canada we were in) except that all the fast food places were replaced by one: Tim Hortons. Ontario has a large population of Pakistani and asians. The chinese food we had was ok, with a side helping of bland, but we did see an abundance of Halal chinese resteraunts (good luck finding sweet-n-sour pork). The best food we had was an afgani lunch place called Bamiyan Kabobs. Good stuff. Interestingly, the asians outnumber the french Canadians by two-to-one. There were frenchies though. You can spot the french women because they refuse to wear bras, despite the fact that for the vast majority of them you wished they did.

On the plus side, my wife's cousin had a salt-water pool. Nice. It has me rethinking my "no pool" house policy.
