apologies, No way was I 'knocking' Canada, the point I was trying to make to Mani was that I thought young children would be bored out of their heads sitting in a car driving 8 or 10 hours across the prairie , lets be honest its a bit more than a daytrip to Blackpool driving from the Niagra Falls to the Rockies
