Great Atlantic Canadian Trainventure!

[annathepiper]

As I posted on the social networks earlier tonight, Dara and I will very soon be commencing the formal planning of the Great Atlantic Canadian Trainventure! We are looking at a rough range of dates from July 21st through August 7th, as that’s about as much time off as I can spare and still account for Norwescon and for the minor oral surgery I have to have in May. (It’s a dental thing, and no real big deal, but I need to take a day off for it.)

We will be targeting arriving in St. John’s in Newfoundland on the 2nd so we can be there in time for the festival to start on the 3rd, and we’ll come home on the 6th, and I’ll take the 7th to get over being jetlagged and to decompress from OMG 2 1/2 weeks in Canada. :D

And that, O Internets, means that depending on when Dara and I can catch a train from Vancouver to Toronto, we will be arriving in Toronto somewhere between the 24th and 26th of July! We want to visit people in the Toronto area (including cow and possibly also eeyorerin), but also to make bonus stops in Montreal and Moncton! So if you’re in any of these places OR within shouting distance of St. John’s, and you’d like to meet a couple of friendly and musical Cascadian elfchicks, I want to hear from you! Let me know if I should factor you into my plannings!

Ooh, really? Where? I often stay on the South Shore when I go (a close friend lives in Longueuil and my favourite pub is in Chambly), so new places there are always neat.

But, um, you can enjoy all the Fairmount bagels, then. :3

Y'all know what I'm hearing here? I'm hearing "solarbird and annathepiper must convene the Independent Panel of Bagel Judges". :D

Hee. Definitely. :3

Although it really is more of a personal preference thing. I find Saint-Viateur's to be more chewy, more dense, and less sweet. So you can really nom into it.

But I find those good attributes! Not everyone does, and some people prefer *ahem* the other kind. :3
