Canadian Winter, 101

Let's just say that we had ample time in the airport to come up with lessons for traveling to Canada in the cold of the winter..here are what Jess and I consider the most essential.

1. If you are hosting a lunch and the coke is warm, it will chill faster on the deck than the fridge or freezer!
2. If you want your car to start in the morning, don't forget to plug it in!
3. Exact temperature to freeze your nose hairs in 2.3 seconds..-33 degrees fahrenheit.
4. When losing in Rock Band, don't forget to Rock Out, it will save you and the other band members!
5. If you don't want to biff it, then don't mock others for biffing.
6. When in doubt of what to yell at a hockey game, just scream "JAM IT IN THERE"!!
7. ALWAYS AVOID THE WHITEWASH.
8. Indoor activities are a must, even if you have to make up your own games (and rules).
9. Timmy Hortons coffee/hot chocolate = Canadian dietary necessity
10. Christmas trees must thaw out over night. crazy.
11. Always use the restrooms before you board a plane, the toilets will freeze.
