Re: Car Hire and local weather pls
I know what you mean about the drive, that is a completely different scene to here in the UK.
The open countryside is another complete opposite, the scenery etc and the views like the Highway running parrel to the Railroad and the Huge trains seem to run the length to the horizon
Its just somethings you need to see first hand!

Re: Car Hire and local weather pls
Yep
The roads are open and long but traffic free. In Alberta they arent t bad but in Sas they start to go a bit poorer. I havent been much further East so I cant say what they are like but I was told there they get steadily worse as you go East. Any one wanting to entertain us on the road conditions

Yes I have seen that a couple of times in fact I remember asking a local about it when we stopped off, as in is it legal, and he said it happend all the time and in general the cops didnt really bother which I kinda doubted

I never said there wasn't a good reason for the bad roads, i am well aware as to why the roads are bad but your argument is like saying we (Leeds) are no longer a premiership team because we are crap and our defense leaks like a sieve, both true but the fact is we are still in league 1.
