Will's news from abroad

Loading these pictures from bingo room in Clermont, FL. at the campground resort we are at. This is a triathlon camp where I will be until Tuesday.
I rented a snazy car and have a nightmare story I will tell tomorrow
Meanwhile here are some sarasota pics.

The first couple days in Sarasota have been good.
Long rides with lots of wind and some very nice beaches. There is something about Florida. A feel of retirement, of paradise, of slowness and money all mixed up into one.
come ride here if: you want a vacation, want to ride windy rides, want good weather.
do not: if you want hills.
For me, it was a nobrainer, because of the time of year and the vacation aspect I wanted to add to this training camp. School is hard, McGill is hard* and a good break i think is a must.
I have been clicking away on my iphone and will post pictures soon. i am on a typical Floridian homogenous compound with a country club and some very nice facilities to take advantage of. I hope I will get to use the golf sticks at least once before leaving.
Yesterday, we rode to Siesta Key by Long boat key, very fun riding. It is a nice coincidance to have my ex-teammate out here also. A good partner to ride some miles and a good break from the blasting ipod in my ears.
Currently looking at my school exchange possiblities for next year and will keep you updated on that. i have to sort of narrow down my list I guess.
Happy birthday to my good friend PJ and a great supper at his house prepared by friend and chef Carl.
Have a good one
Will

I travelled to Sarasota Florida yesterday. A whole day of travelling but very enjoyable.
Got a good price on a jet blue flight out of burlington through newark and onto Tampa.
Jet blue is a discount airline but the staff is good and the leg room is very reasonable. I enjoyed the trip alot and now realise how priviledged I am to travel and will not complain about lugging my stuff around in airports :)
So I am staying with a friend and his family who nicely accepted to help me out to stay for a week down here.
Interesting story from the shuttle ride last night:
Old handicapped lady who struggled to get into van: ``Ì can`t buckle my seatbelt, two males do not want to mate`
redneck driver (who was nice and I tiped too much): ``That`s certainly not gonna work, especially not in this van``
Lady: ``I thought you kids these days were fine with that``
The driver finally got the belt and buckle to mate. He talked to me about hockey for an jour on the shuttle trip. Anyways, on that, Welcome to America!

What will I be doing while down here? I asked myself the same question and came up with some interesting answers... (for next time).

Please buy yourself the new Call of Duty, I am playing in on a lagging dell laptop and I am still on aw!
Can someone explain while I move my head around while playing shooter games, some neurological process does not work to tell me that no, body movements cannot duck shots in a shooter game.

Hopefully this blog will talk about other things then myself in the near future, meanwhile keep on reading.
I am posting 2009 season photos with these entries just to get those pics out there
