billets

Well, I am currently on tour and I have already had a few eventful days.

My first day of tour I got to stay at a Bed and Breakfast, and it just happened to be at the home of two of the pioneers from the reality tv show Pioneer Quest, which was on the history chanel. It was amzing to get to stay with them. I didn't realise why I recognised the guy in the audience, until James told me that he was on a tv show, and instantly it dawned on me. That night James and I had to share a bed. It didn't bother me, and I tried to make it as awkward as possible for James. saying things like, "Wow, I have never slept with a teacher before." Apparently he has never slept with a student before either, so i guess there is a first for everything.
Yesterday, I was pulled over by the OPP, (I am one of the drivers on the tour) I was going 95 in a 90 zone so i was a bit confused as to why i was being pulled over, but I pulled off to the side and the woman got out of the vehicle and asked me if I had others in the vehicle, I said that there were 11 of us, she asked where we were coming from and I couldn't remember, so I looked back to James who reminded me that we had been in Timmins earlier that day. She then said that she had received a complaint that a vehicle similar to ours had been the object of a complaint made earlier that day, apparently someone said that we were throwing beer bottles out the window. I assured her that that was untrue, and she told me I might as well confess. I then told her that we were from a Christian college which seemed to easer her conscience. She checked over my license and then she back to her vehicle. It took me about half an hour for my heart to get back to its normal speed, but atleast I survived my first time getting pulled over.

You drunken mostly graduated group of individuals, oh and I have to include speeder (some areas of Ontario are more strict). I'm glad you survived your first time being pulled over, and I am glad that it was in Ontario :p. If you happen to get this in the next few days can you let James know there is a message about insurance papers floating around. For some reason it was sent to one of my co-organizers with a request to give it to you guys when you are here, but since you're not can you find out how to get this paper to him. Thanks and have fun on the continuing journey.
