5 More Days to Go

Even with 5 days to go, I can't miss my morning cup o' jo with Ninu and Huub at 49th Parallel. I'm totally looking forward to checking out the great coffee joints in Melbourne known for its cool cafe culture.

49th Parallel is named after the dividing line between Canada and the U.S., the world's longest unprotected border. Did you know that roughly two-thirds of all Canadians live south of the 49th Parallel? Or that more than 90 percent of all Canadians live within 50 miles of the US border? Now that's something to ponder over an epic espresso.

I read this morning re: Copenhagen climate change conference that over 20,000 cups of organic coffee will be served to delegates. I guess at least it's organic.
