Default But of course none of this will have any impact on boating

I've taken the train across Canada... (Vancouver to Halifax) 5 days on a
coach seat.... in the middle of winter.




Lose a bet?



Naw... my student loan money ran out so I had to come home.
Had $65.00 left in Vancouver so I bought one last decent meal there and
a coach train ticket ...lasted me 1.5 days till we stopped in Calgary
for a couple of hours, where I bought a loaf of bread, package of cheese
slices and couple cans of apple juice.
This got me to Montreal a couple of days later where I was forced to
spend a night at the Salvation Army due to overnight train stop... dined
with the street people 7 winos the next morning..that lasted me to Halifax.
