Hohoho! Back at last! lol

Indeed I cannot upload images to the pc as I need a particular bit of software which this pc does not seem to have - anyway, my brother bought a 512MB memory card to fill up even more pictures, and seeing I'm coming back today I don't think we need much more space for photos!

I did get your picture Matrix, hopefully it hasn't been deleted (as my brother takes up so many pictures that are worthless we have to delete a load off). I also took the one koekie wanted me to take.

I am currently in Toronto and the time is 10:38AM. You are all probably wondered why there has been no contact until now (yes, you know you all care dearly for me!) - well, here's the story:

I last spoke in Boston, I then drove down to a place called Sandwich, and stayed there for 4 days. They charged $2 for 30 minutes internet access, so I decided I wouldn't spend the large sum of money and would just cope without ;) While I was in Sandwich I drove to cape cod, went to beach (for 1 hour! :o), and went on a whale watching boat (which was enjoyable).

After Sandwich I drove down to New York City, where I spent 3 nights. During that time I went on a sightseeing bus all around the city, went up the Empire State Building, shopped at Macy's (which took all my energy out of me lol), went to Times Sqaure etc etc.

Unfortunately the hotel in NYC didn't have a computer to use (they only had wireless internet - and I don't have a laptop, so no use to me!). After I had spent my time in New York I flew from La Guardia airport to Buffalo Airport, got a coach to Niagara Falls and spend 2 nights there. It was very good fun, and my hotel room ovrelooked the falls (although there were trees in the way!). Spent 2 nights in Niagara falls - in which time I went on the Maid of the Mist (boat ride near the falls), tried to enter the casino but was stopped as I am under 19 (:(), and went on a tourbus around the area to a chocolate tasting factory, wine distillery, around niagara etc.

After that I got a taxi to Toronto, and I have spent 2 nights here so far, and here I am! Yesterday I went up the CN Tower (which wasn't as bad as I thought it would be - I seem to be slowly losing my fear of height :P). Last night I went to a baseball game, having only just grasped most of the rules from watching it on TV. It was the Toronto Blue Jays against the Seattle Mariners (and blue jays won 9-4 of course ;)). I also went on a sightseeing tour yesterday (downtown), and plan to go on a tourbus uptown today, before I leave for the UK later on!

I am lucky that I got on this pc because most of the time somebody is on it - so thank god it was free just before I left otherwise I might have lost my mind :D

Hope to be back in the UK soon - unfortunately I leave from here at 6pm and arrive in the UK at 6am, so I lose 6 hours of my sleeping time. I should get home around 1pm UK time, although as I will have lost sleep I don't think you will see me for a little while ;)

While I've been away I've bought a pair of trainers, some jeans, a baseball (for the hell of it ;)), some t-shirts and NHL 2005 (which was $20 canadian - about 10 pounds, so not bad - damn american keyboard doesn't have the UK pound sign!)

Anyway, I'll stop blabbering now - I'm sure you all can't really be bothered to read all the above text! Some time after I get back I hope to get back on CoD and improve my jumping (;)), watch the world series of poker (as this damn hotel doesn't have ESPN! :P), sleep, and in time upload all the images that have been taken during the holiday. Don't expect to see the pictures up anytime soon as I have barely any room on my pc and the images take up over 500MB of space on my pc. When they are done I will show you guys the best ones ;)

Well, gotta go checkout of this hotel now - see you all in 24 hours!

I'll try my best, but can't promise anything! :P Did a bit of parkour while I was here, although only got one video and that's of me jumping over a moving water fountain in Toronto (couldn't really do any more because didn't have room on camera for it!). Going to get a taxi to the airport in about 10 minutes, and will then be flying back to UK - so should be back at home around 1pm UK time tomorrow ;) Whether or not I will have the energy to go on my pc when I get back is a whole other thing ;)

lol :) Was my first time outside europe and was good fun.

I didn't get one of the glove things. I was tempted to get a foam glove but they were at rip-off prices ($12 canadian - roughly £6 for a piece of foam!).
