Cheezarama (in a good way)!
This is a fun one, Allister. Many of the merits have already been
hightlighted in other posts, but I have to add my 'me too' to the kudos on
the bus...it has a wonderful, beefy shape. The viewing windows look like
the western scenic cars in use throughout the Rockies, while the body has
the muscle of those arctic glacial tour rovers. I quite like it.
Good stuff.
Cheers,
