Part III – Grand Prix du Canada – 2008
Hello guys, Wow!! As time has passed flying this Canadian summer, so this post will be leaner, but objective, since the day-to-day has been rushed in these northern hemisphere lands. Tips that can be useful for those who can venture into the automotive environment: 1. Sunscreen factor 30 or higher (as we took the biggest burn in history, I would take up if we had rain forecast hehe). 2. Portable chairs are a great idea if you bought the ticket for the “general admission”… 3. You can take everything a little: drinks, including alcoholic, snacks, marmite, chicken with farofa etc. A lousy hot dog with no sauce over there costs…

Part II – Ville de Québec
Hi all Today I come to post, mostly photos, our tour of Ville de Québec. We were there, me, Diego, Ari and Lourdes, on Saturday, June 7, coming from Montreal where we were staying in a super comfortable inn, whose owners are very fine people say in passing. Well, we decided to go back and forth the same day, since the next morning we’d go to Formula One. We had already imagined and had heard that the city was beautiful and really confirmed itself. Ville de Quebec proved to be a charming city, being for its historic architecture or for its natural beauties. The main sights are basically located in…

Montreal – Part I
Montreal and part of motorsport, As you may have noticed in the title of the post, the events of the last weekend will be separated by chapters, and it would be impossible to post the 240 photos in the same post … Hehehe Ari and Lourdes, Diego’s parents, are here with us, realizing the first visits from Brazil at newhome. Therefore, we planned right away a trip to Montreal and Ville de Québec, to also show the Quebecoises beauties to them (and we who also did not know Ville de Québec). On Friday the 1st, we went for a walk through Montreal and began to feel the atmosphere of Formula…

Whistler BC | Canada
We woke up early (6:00 today) to go to Whistler! We left around 7:30 am and arrived at Whistler 2 hours later, and on the way beautiful landscapes, works all over the stretch because of the Winter Olympics in 2010. Getting there, we went to the information center to schedule our day there, in the meantime it started to snow! Eeeeee! It was very little more already you could feel the floquinho hitting the face. Unfortunately the ski season had not started yet, because the mountains were little snowy… But to enjoy the day we schedule (just me and Diego) a quadricicle ride (ATV- all terrain vehicle). While it was…

Victoria B.C.
We woke up a little early today to go to Victoria. And yes! It’s raining! Hehe We left the hotel before 9am and went to the center to stop by bus where we started our very long journey by the way. This first bus took 45 minutes. We arrived at the 2nd stop to take the bus to bcferries. Well, we made it in time to catch the 11:00 boat. We arrived at the island after 1h40min of crossing, and we need to take another bus to get to Victoria, which took another hour. We arrived in Victoria almost 2:00 p.m. We had lunch and then went after information to…
