Wow, I got to Lewiston in 6 Hours, and no slow down across Canadian customs.
Now the line to the 'Merican side look about 20 miles backed up.
Now that would suck.
Ofcourse it rained thru Burlington and Oakville Ontario, which ofcourse lead
to a 3-4 lane wide backup god knows how long...
Canadians seem to be able to drive in the snow, but not the rain. Go figure.
