Yesterdays blog was written on the flight to Calgary from Halifax, a five hour flight without leaving the country and when we landed we had to move our watches back three hours, I know it is stating the bleeding obvious but Canada is a big country.
You may perhaps be surprised to see a picture of a tiger on todays blog entry, Canada is not famous for tigers but today we had a trip to the zoo where our kind hosts, Rosie and Norm, are members. They also took us to a complete failure of a museum called the Museum of Failure and features such classics as the De-Lorian car, the Amstrad emailer and Betamax video recorders. It did not feature the Mable Arch Mound but some lesser know gems amongst the 130 exhibits are described below;
They were heavy and had a point, after 6000 children had been injured and three deaths they were withdrawn from sale.
Made by Hasbro this doll was intended to encourage compassion amongst children caring for someone less fortunate than themselves. It just frightened the life out of them.
The idea was that you poked your penis into a machine which sprayed it with latex and in three minutes you were ready for action. Not surprisingly men were not to keen on sticking their treasured possession into a machine and it was a bit of a mood killer.
Something else to avoid poking your willie into was the Uroclub. It looks like a golf club, unscrew the top, pretend to be doing practice shots and you can pee down the handle saving you having to go into the bushes for a pee.
It will never catch on, now there's a good name for a book.
Apart from the tiger we did get to see some Canadian wildlife in the zoo just in case we don't meet them in the wild over the next few weeks. The grizzly bear looks quite tame behind bars.
Tomorrow we move into the Rockies where we are staying in a fancy hotel next to Lake Moraine, they have warned us the internet access is poor so it might be a few days before we next update the blog.
