Canadian GP Weekend: Preview

After 12 hours of traveling, I'm finally home.  This also means that for 12 hours, my wet sneakers, socks, and other unmentionables have been brewing and stewing in my tightly packed luggage.  I'm frantically washing and re-washing what can be washed and drying what can't be washed, e.g. my passport, wallet, and camera.

There are a lot of notes and pictures to sort through.  In the meantime, here are some representative shots of my weekend.

Friday: F1 practice and Historic GP paddock

 Grandstand 11 with a view of the Senna Curve.  The weather was gorgeous.
