TransCanada Transpondency

Adam Gratrix continues on another 2 week adventure across Canada
with his travel companion Damien.

A travelogue, of sorts.

Part 10:
Special edition. The night before Adam leaves for home, the boys and him head into Toronto to meet up with a few of their podcaster friends along The Danforth. Ken, the Scarborough Dude of Description; and John Meadows of On The Log (who, unfortunately, had to pack it in early). After a few pint of beer, the recorder was turned on. This are some the conversations we had that night, raw and unedited for better of worse. Music:

I jumped on a train at Union Station and headed for Ottawa. I was lucky to beat the Canada Day traffic and a possible blockage of highways and railway lines by aboriginal protesters.
