Americanization All Over The World

Was out exploring the city yesterday and just wanted to point out some things that I saw on my walk. Just when I thought that I was so far from home, that all changed. I was walking down North Bridge road and on the way down it, I came across a Blockbuster, Subway, Quiznos, Pizza Hut, Dominoes Pizza, Papa Johns Pizza and an Apple store. Even at the grocery store there are Pringles, Lays (Walkers over here), Axe deodorant (Lynk deodorant over here, same thing), Coke, Sprite, etc. It is absolutely ridiculous how much Americanization has occurred throughout the rest of the world. I can say though, that there is a huge variety of food to choose from over here and of course, they drive on the opposite side of the road as us.

No, not yet. Eventually I will get the courage to rent a car (oh, and also the loan money :)
