Day 8: cheese whizz. more driving. and the big little gig...

my bro and i stayed at the illustrious Amsterdam Inn in Quispamsis last night... now, if you knew exactly how tiny and insignificant Quispamsis is, you'd know how rare it is to find a hotel in a place like that.  hey had a decent breakfast buffet - but on the side we found tiny hotel portions of cheese whizz.  for those who don't know, cheese whizz is an entirely artificial, bright orange 'cheese' that usually comes in an aerosol can!  it is vile.  it should be studied in a lab, NOT consumed.  especially not on decent bagels.  oh canada!
so, today's stop was Sackville, NB - home to Mt. Allison university, a couple thousand people, a lotta groundhogs, and my mum.  a little town that just happened to put on a BIG show.  the vene, Joey's, was packed (thanks to mum!), and i had a great laugh with the audience - they even demanded the orgasm song - bless ;-)
and thanks to this gig my iPad is now nearly paid off, and i can afford to pay for the tattoo i`m getting tomorrow!

i feel like i`m cheating on my tattooist, Erik... and i suppose i am - but this lassie has come highly recommended.  i am getting a convolvulus vine tattooed along my right collar bone. dig.
tomorrow we head 4 hours south east to Canso for The Stan Rogers Folk Festival!  it`ll be a no-wifi weekend, so i`ll catch you on the flipside, muthafuckas!

`BOOMìngly yours, O.
