Where Am I Wearing?

Let your mind wonder

I’m in Canada, don’t tell anybody

The Author By Kelsey | September 13th, 2007 | Comments 1 Comment »

I’ve always liked not having been to Canada. It gave me a comeback to people who refer to me as a world traveler and say things like, “Where haven’t you been?”

“Well, I’ve never been to Canada.” I’d say.

Everybody knows that you ain’t no world traveler unless you’ve been to Canada. The response would shut them up pretty fast. But here I am in Niagara Falls, Canada. Crap.

Annie and I haven’t been more than from miles from the US border so really that shouldn’t count as having been to a country, especially a country the size of Canada. Maybe, if we were 5 miles into Luxembourg, it would be a different story.

So, officially I’ve still never been to Canada. Unofficially, I have been. And I quite like how the cars stop for pedestrians in the crosswalks.

    I think I can understand. People are always surprised that I grew up in SoCal and have never been to Mexico.

    And, speaking of the West Coast–they will also stop for you in a crosswalk (crosswalk laws are enforced so why risk a ticket?).
