In Greece they are intimidating just because Greeks drive on them, LOL! Oh well at least you got the big roads to drive the big cars and not get squeezed with eachother everytime there is traffic congestion. Enjoyable post this one, not as enjoyable as me driving on the pavements of Greece of course but still enjoyable:). Take care gal!

Except for great hockey players with names I can't pronounce of course ;-) <strong>Linguist-in-waiting</strong>: I know... people can seem cold here and it's a total different way of life. Walking around in a mall isn't my favorite activity and probably never will be. Yet, I adapted fine... chose to see the bright side I guess ;-) <strong>Ghosty</strong>: I haven't been West much yet (Winnipeg is as far as I went) but I'd love to visit. <strong>Larry Gambone</strong>: agreed. The car culture often drives me crazy here, especially because I didn't grow up in such environment. Urban planning isn't great either... but I tried to focus on the bright side ;-) <strong>Kirant Kai</strong>: yeah, I understand. Didn't feel the hugeness is China much either, it's so packed everywhere! <strong>Art</strong>: I know... but let's be realistic, it's sad but the ice cap up there won't be here forever... <strong>Beaverboosh</strong>: but would the Chinese buy it? And more important, can I be a translater for the deal? ;-) <strong>Theresa</strong>: I must admit it's the first thing that surprised me in Canada: driving these empty stretches of freeway! <strong>Pelf</strong>: a lot of French are attracted to Canada because of the hugeness too. Yet, lots of Canadians go travel in Hong Kong... to each his own! <strong>Jay Cam</strong>: you should know that, you're American! Aiglee: same here ;-) How big is Venezuela?

People seemed to want to emigrate to Canada because of the huge roads, huge houses, huge backyards, huge cars and what-nots :D Our roads and houses and cars in Malaysia really pale in comparison!

I guess that is the opposite of small countries! I larf, people in Norway think it is big... it fits inside of the province of Ontario three times (but it is long and skinny)! Canadians should sell the country off to the Chinese, who need more space anyway, and buy an island to resettle in the Bahamas! BB of Brobdingnag Hey Zhu,
