Today, we actually slept until after 10. A luxury we haven't had, because of the light of this whole trip. Last night we closed the windows, turned on the a/c and closed the blackout curtains completely.

Jimmy ran over to the little cafe in the RV park and picked up a really good breakfast, before 11, and I had room service once again! (Cereal was getting a little old). Then we did some things around the bus and he went into town to exchange money, at the bank. He got $101.97 for his $100.00 of American money!

Then after checking the race schedules, (the truck race is this afternoon) we went in to town and had lunch at Klondike Kate's. No one in Canada has fresh brewed tea, it's either bottled or soda fountain tea. So I asked the waiter for some hot tea and a glass of ice! A little later, a lady came in and wanted some fresh brewed tea....so I told her my trick and she did the same thing! The waiter was one of the nicest, most accomodating waiters of the whole trip.....definitely in Canada... (they really don't like to be bothered, here.) Then, we drove around all the neighborhoods, saw Robert Service's cabin (Call of the Wild) and Jack London's place. Some of the houses look like shacks like down in New Orleans, but there are some that are pretty nice. Then, we had to stop at Diamond Tooth Gertie's... a really cute gambling hall that has dancehall shows each night.

After going back to the bus, to watch the race (which was rain delayed, anyway) Jimmy decided to take the bicycle off the back of the bus (poor thing) and it is really in bad shape. The back tire is somehow flat and it is so full of dust, that I don't think the gears would turn anyway. Anyway, better sign off, once again, a truck is broken down, back home, and he's on the phone, to take care of it. A storm is blowing up, so we need to batten down the hatches, too.
