since i had such a short drive today, i decided to stop at magnetic hill in moncton, NB
in neutral, my car actually went UP the hill
its so fun i did it 3 times
the pic below shows the hill and the front of my car
the last segment of the journey is confederation bridge
"The Confederation Bridge joins the eastern Canadian provinces of Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick, making travel throughout the Maritimes easy and convenient. The curved, 12.9 kilometre (8 mile) long bridge is the longest in the world crossing ice-covered water, and a decade after its construction, it endures as one of Canada’s top engineering achievements of the 20th century."
theres even a bridge cam on the website..... SO cool
AND, just as im getting on the bridge, i scan the radio for some tunes
i find a station called DOG radio, from halifax nova scotia and the song that comes on is
bowie, rebel rebel.... serious
