We built this city…

… on Motors! Yes, I’m speaking about the motor city, Detroit. On Friday I motored there from Philadelphia which took almost 10 hours.

 

Well that included stops, picking up people and the usual road trip amenities.

 

But before we get to that I would like to back a week or two to show you this picture!

 

Right this will actually be an entry with pictures! I can’t believe I was lazy taking them in the last couple of weeks. But you know, everybody gets like that every now and again.

 

So here we go with the vintage shredded wheat I tweeted about a little back! I can hear a voice in my head saying “Vintage Shredded Wheat” and it makes me laugh! I hope you too.

 

 

Friday I took on the PA Turnpike again. The good thing about this is that they have Starbucks on every rest plaza. I think I mentioned that before though. Well I got me one and then proceeded to drive into Ohio.

 

They had Starbucks on Ohio plazas too, but they were not “real” Starbucks. They explained it to me but I already forgot. All that counts is that they didn’t accepted the benefits of Starbucks card holders like free refills. So no free refills for me. They accepted the Starbucks card for payment though. Which brings me to coffee number two.

 

I had a total of three that Friday and number three was had at a gas station close to the building in Detroit. Hey I drove 10 hours, lay off me! The gas station was quite the fancy place to be as evident by those nice handles they had on their fridges.

 

Right after the show we left for Toronto. I slept and woke up at the border where they asked us if they need to be aware of any hidden needles when they search the car…

 

After catching some more sleep I got up to do some cardio and then we set off to the building at the Expo Center because there was a big sports card convention going on.

 

But before we got there everybody grabbed some food, except me, I got me some coffee. First of the day for those who are counting.

 

 

 

My cup would have been number 3; a tremendous one :D

 

Then it was off the sports card convention which would have been heaven for every hockey fan. Lot’s of hockey stuff going on, unfortunately I didn’t get that Miroslav Satan jersey I wanted but found some great weird wrestling memorabilia. This came to a close with me signing some autograph signing and then the ROH show.

 

Since all that walking around made me tired I decided to drive to my favorite coffee place in Toronto that I found last time we were there (and was right across from the hotel too) and enjoyed my last cup for the day and a great one at that. 

 

Next Weekend it’s CHIKARA and it’s the season finale! Which means you should definitely be there. Saturday I’m in a great 6 man in Easton teaming with Jorge Rivera against ONST (oh and Quackenbush is in there too) and on Sunday I wrestle Eddie Kingston in a “Respect” match at the Arena in Philadelphia.

 

Be there!

 

With that I would like to say “thank you” to all my readers!!

 

Tschüss,

Claudio
