Nice, I recognize the "Canso Straits" very well. Looks like the Thelasa Degangnes was the tanker you saw (the one with the yellow stripe on bow).

Damnit Gord! Had I known you were going out that way I woulda had you grab me some moosehead premium. Awesome pics dude. Hope you had a blast

And Andrew, it looks like the name on the bow reads Angelia Desgannes... don't trust my eyes, but if that's right, is there a ship of that name that you know of?

Nice pics!

I noticed that you went back to your stock wheels. Was it for comfort on the long journey or were you protecting your 18s from the rough roads?

Yeah i went back to my stockers for a few reasons.....

1. i wasn't sure how the roads would be, but had no problems they were pretty good all the way out. It was mostly the side streets in Sydney that were really rough. :unsure:

2. The rubber on my stockers was only a month old before I put the car away last year, so i figured i'd put the K's on the brand new 15" Kumho's instead of the 18" Toyo's :D

3. It just cost me $200 + $66 brokerage for a set new center caps for the 18's, so i'd hate to see what it would cost to have another rim shipped all the way up here by UPS :angry:

4. the stockers are way lighter than my 18's too! SO i probably saved a bunch on my fuel milage too, which was good since the last stop for gas was just before Montreal and cost $42 @ $1.34.9/L :(

I went down with a sportline drop, but put my stockers back on! And i had no problems with the roads all the way there! I don't know what drop you have or rims/rubber so it's your call.

I DO suggest some kind of stone chip protection though (either a bra if you're stock or 3m protection) as my front bumper is chipped bad and i need a re-paint.

i haven't totalled up the gas bills yet, but i'd say around $200 each way, and that was before the massive crazy gas hike

It was a good tome, wish i could've stayed longer...

And as far as the Keith's goes none of it was for me! :lol: :lol:

All were requests from friends and relatives, as we can't get Keith's light or red in Ontario. And there's supposed to be a Keith's blonde out too?

i plan on going back out next year for 3 weeks instead of 3 days :lol:
