A huge proportion of Canada geese live permanently in the US, leaving acres of goose poop for us to slip on. Wawa!
I'm glad to see you support Wawa! Wawa, Ontario for the win!

Dear Jason: Please be ready on June 16 with your welcome wagon of bagged milk and something from Tim Hortons.
Also that’s like 7 hours from now in Russia!
She really does have to try breakfast from Tim Horton's. The Coffee is IMO, better than Starbucks and so are the breakfast sandwich's. What's the drinking age in Canada? She definitely needs to try Patrick's Ice Wine, even if it's just for a photo.....She should also spend an afternoon at the West Edmonton Mall.....She might run into Kaetlyn and she can ride that big roller coaster.
OK, if you can't stop thread drift, time to embrace it....
There's a Wawa, Ontario? That is not *the* Wawa, there is only one Wawa, the greatest convenience store ever, which started in Eastern Penna. They also have great coffee.
Ben Jalovick, a US men's senior skater training in Colorado, shows off his Wawa coffee on a trip back East Gotta have a Wawa
Sadly, there are no Wawa stores that I know of in Canada, so Jason will not be able to greet Zhenya with a Wawa coffee
Uhm, not to get off topic or anything, but given Zhenya's from Moscow, I totally expect her to be ready to embrace Canada's "big thing" obsession.Pssh...a flying goose on a coffee cup...try a 28 feet majestic 3-D statue [emoji3].

Drinking age in Ontario is 19 so she won't be able to try the wine for a little bit.
Are we moving to gardening and horticulture now? Medvedeva sure has a lot to learn in Canada!
Just wish she can get some time off to focus on skating.
Smal world. According to this blog, the town of Wawa, Ontario, took it's name from the Wawa dairy in Pennsylvania, which grew into the convenience store.

I was wishing that the thread would get back to Evgenia's first trip to IKEA to buy furniture for her new apartment, so I could post this. Maybe they will put her in their next ad! (If you pause at 1:17 you can see a picture of the skaters from their performing days. )

But the article doesn't mention Ontario at all. It says the Wawa convenience store chain in New Jersey was named after the town of Wawa Pennsylvania.
No Ontario towns were harmed (or referenced) in that article!
Wawa takes its name from the Ojibwe word for "wild goose", wewe. Wawa was defined as wild goose in The Song of Hiawatha.

Ya, I didn't see it mentioned in the article either (unless it was mentioned in the podcast).
From wikipedia:
It seems, together with the article that Mathman posted, that both towns were named after the Ojibwe word.
Mama is ART! [emoji2]Are Russian's really also obsessed with monuments to big things? Maybe Maya Angelou is correct and “We are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike.”

Also there is a giant (trigger warning) Spider out front of the National Art Gallery https://goo.gl/images/ms8S2x
