TIME OUT! |
| OK, so we had 4 days to suffer without a football game. This is a short recap of how we managed to pass the long hard hours ... | |
 |
Tuesday Go to Boston. Drive into the "Big Dig". Get out of car. Go to Quincy Market. Note that it has the best food court in the world ever. Eat Lobster Roll. Feel content. Leave. |
 |
Drive North to New Hampshire. Go see the Old Man of the Mountain. Note the resemblance between "The Great Stone Face" and Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher. |
 |
Drive to Vermont. Stay in a Ski Lodge. Relax in the hot tub and sauna.
Wednesday Go to Ben and Jerry's factory and scoop some free samples. |
 |
Head West and cross Lake Champlain back into New York state on a ferry. Get wet. |
 |
Go west to Lake Placid. Wonder that this place has been awfully quite since the Winter Olympics here back in 1980. Have lunch. |

 |
Head for Toronto. Get lost. |

Thursday Hang out in TO. Go up CN Tower. |
 |
Look out CN Tower. |

|
Cross Rainbow Bridge back into US. Head for Buffalo. |
|
|
Head for the cultural centre of Buffalo - The Anchor Bar. Order Wings. While waiting for wings, ponder if the invention of Buffalo Wings was one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century. Eat wings. Feel good. |
|
|
Then drive West. Leave Ohio. Enter Pennsylvania. Leave Pennsylvania. Enter Ohio. Stop at Willoughsby, just off the I-90. Revisit one of our greatest finds back in 1999 - The Brown Derby Roadhouse.
