Heh, it's not easy to get there.  We're looking at a solid 8.5 hours.

Well, there are no trains to Ottawa from here - only Montreal.
Basically, you have to drive across the Adirondacks.  There is the
possibility of taking the training to Montreal (about 8 hours) then
possibly using some Canadian transportation.  That said, our best bet is
probably to drive it ourselves.

40 CDN is hard to beat.  I think we could go with something like that.
