5) I once went from Toronto to Los Angeles to Oakland to Vancouver and back to Toronto all using the Greyhound Bus.

How long did that take? My geography knowledge of the US and Canada is vague. Toronto is over by the great lakes, LA is obviously down near the Mexico border, Vancouer is west-coast Canada(?), and Oakland is...?

Los Angeles, California is on the southwest coast of the USA. Oakland, California is about a few hundred miles north of Los Angeles right next to San Francisco. Vancouver, British Columbia is correct.

Let's see it took me 2 and a half days to reach Los Angeles (Could only stay for 5 hours). Maybe six hours to reach Oakland. I stayed there for 2 nights and 2 days. Left San Francisco on the 3rd day (15 minute subway ride from Oakland) and spent that evening trapped at a greyhound station in Redford, CA (long story there). Finally reached Canada the following evening. Spent the next day travelling and arriving to Calgary. Another day to reach Winnipeg. And another to arrive home just in time for an impromptu Transit strike. Do the math.

Amazing isn't it?

What's Oakland like? One of my favorite bands, Tower of Power, is from there, and they make a lot of references to Oakland and East Bay.

Well it looks like a typical normal city. It's probably remembered by many as "what's on the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge".

Wasn't Mean Gene Oakland in the WWF (WWE)? - I wonder if he was from Oakland Wait, I just looked him up and it is Eugene 'Mean Gene' Oakerlund.

Im' from Ireland guys, and if you look at it on a map you'll understand why I am not that used to long distance travelling. I don't think I can grasp how big the USA is, and certainly not something like Russia. My eyes were opened somewhat a few years ago though - I was in Brazil and it took a 16 hour bus journey to drive just a bit of the way across the country. As I recall, it was 72 hours from Sao Paul to Lima (Peru).
