Five new pages added to my cartoon diary of my trip to Toronto and then AC 2010:
- Page 12: Tired eyes. How to go downtown in the rain?
- Page 13: Took the subway downtown. Went to the CN Tower but it was too cloudy to go up. Returned to the hotel.
- Page 14: Headed out. Saw Niagara Falls! Reentered the US. Pervy border guard. Burger King-- no, Red Lobster for dinner!
- Page 15: Reached Pittsburgh. Checked in. Thursday: Brown Bag Deli. Supercaveman? Babs arrived. We stood in line and sang the Hoisting O Up Building song.
- Page 16: Uncle Kage had a surprise, and he showed me and Babs first!
It's really just a random gamble every time. I still hate crossing the border though. I just know I'll end up dealing with Officer Hardass again eventually...
*shrug* maybe it's because of our nationalalities (you're American, right?)
Nice that you got to enter and exit Canada from two completely different places. I believe I could hum most of the Hoisting of the O song too; I wish New York were still like it was back when Sesame Street filmed that segment.
One unscrupulous man got the cavemen to call him "boss" after he used a butane lighter on a stick and chipped a rock with his gun. Superman usurped that bosshood with his heat vision and a cave wall punch.
I don't remember their motive, but two bad guys tied up Lois and Jimmy and declared that Superman couldn't see thru their lead cave. They didn't count on his super hearing.
The time machine needed silver to work again. A caveman traded silver for the lighter (quite a happy arrangement). Everyone but Kent forgot to change out of their mammoth skins before returning to the present. Kent laughed after Mr. White yelled to passersby, "Haven't you seen a caveman before!?"
Anthrocon flag! Woot! (Love the look on his face in the last panel too!)
I hope you got pictures of it! There's nothing I like more than seeing flags I haven't seen before ...
