"Falling in love is the closest thing to being at the Grand Prix for the first time"

Pam I really hope you can come home!!! CT and Marla...sounds like you had quite the night! I guess the message is to wear lots of layers when going to 69 Orlebar. :)
This was a crazy weekend in Montreal because of the Grand Prix. (That was the slogan on their website...you should see the pic that goes with it.) There are lots of streets blocked off and bars made fake patios, so everyone was drunk in the street. There were also some concerts...mainly cover bands. I've never seen so many Ferraris...they were everywhere! One place on Sherbrooke there were 4 red Ferraris parked in a line. Yesterday evening Darc and I went to a potluck with his class in Mt. Royal park. Apparently you can drink wine in the park as long as you're eating food too. Only in Quebec!!! (We forgot our wine but the park was full of people with coolers of beer and wine so I guess it's true.) After the potluck we went to Mike's (D's friend) apt because he has A/C and a pool. We played frisbee in the pool and enjoyed the A/C but sadly we eventually had to come home to our apt/sauna. It's so humid here already today. Humidex of 34 as of 10am. We also have a pool in our building but it's pretty tiny and has been closed for about 3 weeks for "major works". It was open yesterday so Darc and I went for a swim. All they did was put up a wall to make the pool area smaller. Although we were very excited to find that the room feels air conditioned so we're going to hang out by the pool today...too bad it's not open 24/7. 13 days girls!!
