Man oh man. Walked my feet to bloody STUMPS today. Hiked up and down Signal Hill, all along the lakefront/harbour area, back and forth through downtown streets, and back and forth to my not-centrally located hotel. You know that Bugs Bunny cartoon when he's in the army and comes back from a day's march to open the toes of his boots with a can opener to let the steam out? Yeah. I sat in the bath for an hour tonight and I Don't Do Baths.
This whole town is goofy on brightly coloured clapboards -- I think it must be an ordinance. Also goofy on hills but I'm not sure you can do that with an ordinance. (Ordnance, maybe...) Not as challenging as San Fran but damn close.
Had some wonderful beers at a brew pub I stumbled across (and later stumbled out of). The appetizer size mussels cost $12 and came in a PAIL. They had to change my waste plate three times. Ridiculous!
Pictures to follow. Sadly I am a crappy photog and they won't do the place justice. Now I need to sleep, mining plane takes off at 6 am. I've been awake since 4 this morning...blerg.
