Ok, ok, it's not actually as cold as you might think - barely colder than where I live, which is just north of Toronto, more or less. And like last time I was in this airport, it's possible to see the Rocky Mountains from the airport, when the cloud and fog lift. It would still take you a few hours to drive there, though... they're big, they're on the horizon, and they're still far, far away.
So, this city... say it with me: COW-GLA-REE. Emphasis on the bovine. This ain't your old-world Cagliari namesake, folks. They have airport greeters in stetsons. Really. However, it's comforting that the airport hotel is just as boring as all other airport hotels, at least the ones I've experienced. As fun as the proverbial barrel of monkeys. Viz:
I also am scared by this. Perhaps it's time I got some sleep.

A... Chinook.
Somehow, from context, I don't think mean what I
mean
"I don't think YOU mean". . .
Oh, and *second*.
No, not the frickin' helicopter, the wind.

Cut down on the beans.

Cow-gla-ree? Surely you mean Cow-ga-ree? As in the city of the winter Olympics?
And chinook's a wind? Blimey, you learn something new every day. As for the picture, yes it's scary.
Funny, the 1st thing I thought of was the heli as well. Then I thought of the First Nations tribe. Never thought about a wind. What rpg said about the beans.
I thought it was a fish and the state fish of Alaska.

VIIIth, I thought you meant CAL- GA- RY?
Mybe he means Kalgoorlie ?
wonderferret - that's a salmon.
John - let's say it together one more time:
COW
GLA
REE.
It has a lovely airport.
That is all.
what's happened to your face? at least it's not a pic of you dying of boredom in an airplane.
i thought it was CALGAREE, but that might be something else.
try taking a laxative before next posing for a photo.
Kimberley. She's rilly rilly tall.
Cowglaree? Did you see my daughter?
Dawn - no, I never left the airport hotel. Well, not unless going to the airport counts.
Zoe - it is the same place. Oh, and thanks for looking out for me, but that facial expression was sleep-deprivation-induced. Had nowt to do with the GI tract at all.
I'm rubbish at French but I'd hazard a guess at 'synciteotrofoblat' or something...
I know someone who's scared of cows.

That is too bad that you have to be away on his b-day! Hopefully you can do something special when you get back!
Note to readers - Bob's comment will make no sense whatsoever, unless you go and read *her* comments. We're funny that way.
Kelly - ta - I was around for his party, but left in the evening. There was much wailing and moaning and gnashing of teeth, apparently.
It's just that I feel weird writing on my own comments for some reason.
But I usually make no sense wherever I write stuff anyway...
Sorry Bob, you're not making any sense.
:)
Exactement!
And I looked it up on Wikipedia and apparently it's 'syncytiotrophoblaste' in French...not very exciting at all... :(
Post, damnit! Like I ...
Oh.
Wait.
Never mind.
