I know it's nothing to do with rides, but since we're just chatting waiting for Dan to wow us with his report...
Speaking of restaurants and drinks: We were at a restaurant in Saint John, NB, for a friend's 50th birthday. She'd never tasted a martini, and tonight was the night! We told them all about it when we were ordering.
The first warning sign should have been when the waitress asked us what kind of dressing we wanted on our salads - when we asked what our choices were, we were told, "creamy or oily".
The martini arrived... in a manhattan glass. When pressed, the waitress said that their martini glass was being used. After about 5-10 minutes of my friend sipping her martini, the waitress came back with the now available (and hopefully clean) martini glass, and she took the half-consumed drink and poured it from the manhattan glass into the martini glass.
Classy joint - happy Birthday, Cathryn!
