I learned today that big city commuting kinda sucks!!! I now have my daily routine down though: to get to work, I walk 10 minutes to the train (subway) station. I take the train for 20-25 minutes. Then I get off the train and wait in line with a few hundred UBC students for the bus. Today we stood and watched 3 buses come and go, while the line barely moved because the buses were so full no one else could get on. Ok, so I finally get on the bus (standing room only) and ride down the street for another 15 minutes. Of course, this bus stops no where near my job, so I get off the bus and have another 5 blocks to walk before I finally get to work. All in all, it looks like it will take 75 minutes to get to work in the morning, and an hour and a half to get home at night.
Craziest part? I kind of like it!
(Now, ask me again when its raining in January and I might have a different answer for you...)

Glad to hear you're enjoying Canada! If you get out this way to a Ti-Cats (Hamilton) game, give us a shout- dad has season tickets to the world's worst football stadium and team, we'll have a beer :)
