If you wanted to know..

  • Friday night, was pretty uneventful, I crashed at a friends house as I was unable to walk home

  • Saturday @ 2, we headed out to Carabana for what was to be a most excellent time. It was marred from the start. The express bus wasn't express at all but rather a portable sauna. The ride lasted 40 minutes and was so hot that some poor girl passed out. Things just never got better after that. After an hour we gave up and retreated to one our favourite restaurants to recouperate for the bar.

  • Saturday @ 11, the bar was great, just the sort of thing that you need every once in a while. The music was okay but something else made the night awesome. Maybe the more women than men (which is rare in Waterloo), good air conditioning or plenty of opportunities contributed.

  • Sunday @ 3am, a brief stop in the city hall fountain

  • Sunday @ 3:30am, potential drug bust across the street that ended in whimpers as the neighbours swept the streets

  • Sunday @ 3:35am, nacho fiasco

  • Sunday @ 2pm, tubing down the lovely river in Elora Gorge. It was complete with a one hour wait to get tubes and a no show express bus. The river is great with spots to cliff dive, swim and ride the rapids.

  • Sunday @ 5:30pm, I saved some poor kid that fell out of his tube. The kid was screaming and scared out his mind so I lost my tube and managed to scoop him out the rapids and place him on the bank. The kid was fine once he was out of the water. Before I left I asked him if he was okay, the only thing he could muster was a stout yes. It's funny how kids can be so proud, even thought you know they were scared.

  • Sunday @ 8pm, going away BBQ. Our new friend is headed back to France. It's really weird how you go to a new country and then you make new friends and just when you are comfortable and enjoying yourself you have to go back. Life really is too short.
