A Canadian expedition - 07.09.2008, 05:24 PM

Leaving saturday morning to fly into Toronto airport, to go spend a week with my friend in the Muskokas (sp?) on his family's lakehouse. Should be a fun time! I'll try to log in to RC-M as much as possible up there, but it's dial up IIRC so I'm not sure how long I'll be able to stand being on the computer. Hopefully Mom back in CA will call me when my MBX4 gets here!

Eeeww dial-up! You may want to use your phone's internet, assuming you have service up there, it will probably be faster. Oh, and, have fun!

OK. I'll send out a one-man search party for them, (my friends 12-year-old brother!)

At&T has service in Canada/Toronto, but I wouldnt use it much. My wife is a consultant and had to travel to Toronto for a couple onths. The first cell phone bill that came after her being up there was $1000!!!!!! from internaltiona roaming charges. I called. They dont have a plan that helps much so dont use your phone more than you need to. BTW... Data was more expensive than the actual phone useage so be carfull there too.

Have fun up dare!!


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly

Uhh yeah $1K phone bill? No thanks! I'd live with dial-up if I were threatened with something like that!

If you have time, stop by Sid's Raceway for some exciting electric off road racing.
This Sunday we are having a big race and I will have my e-RC8 for demonstration during the lunch break in between the 2nd and 3rd round of qualifiers.
