I'm currently in Québec City as a guest of the excellent  Exto. I saw a free street show of the Cirque du Soleil, which was fantastic - I was cheering and clapping and bursting with happy by the end; they absolutely rock, there's no compare.

The Old City of Québec is full of activity in the summer; the tourists are a bit many, but there's always something neat happening. I particularly liked the large numbers of people walking around in historical dress from various periods. Tricorns! Frock coats!

This after a two-day stop in Montréal where I sampled WorldCon and met and , who showed me how to have a conversation consisting entirely of sarcasm and tag lines ;3

Anyway, on Thursday I'm of voyaging to Europe for five weeks.

My itinerary is:

Ireland (Dublin, friends there)
Britain ( godzuki)
France ( Eustache)

EUROFURENCE (woooo!)

Germany ( Flywheel)
Finland ( Charha)
Sweden (friends in Uppsala)

then home!

I'll have internet access at all the stops, so I'll be checking out things here :D~<

First stage: snakeys re-invade Ireland!
