South of Solway/Lanercost/Rydal, East of Dowden/Clunn/Brauer.

Two days before I was expecting them :)

Wasn't that a crappy song by that American Idol bastard? Clay Ache'in or whatever his face was?

It wasn't my imagination! There was a strong scent of back bacon in the air. :D

Thats one thing I really loved about Canada - the bacon...mmmmmm bacon!

The bacon in the US is really.... well... sucky!

Now all I need to do is find the best bacon and lettuce and my plan will be complete.. mwahahahahhahahahaahha!

There's lots of Finger Lakes sims too....Keuka, Seneca - and Great Lakes (Ontarin and Erie).

I flew there though, and big ol chunks are missing. Ended up in no-mans land and had to relog.

I missed the obvious today, Lisse -- thanks for pointing this out.

It's funny because I was clicking around on the map and went, "Ontario? Hmmm that must have come around when Chong did". I laughed for awhile to myself, and then went back to exploring. I didn't know they were just added!

In the words of Goodwrench, "It pays to explore".

Alright, where's Vancouver ^_^

My geography isn't the greatest but isn't there something wrong with Champlain, Erie and Huron being north of Ontario and Winnipeg to the southeast?

Helllooooooo - is it just me, or did someone forget that Canada has an east coast too? Places like PEI, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and - dare I say it - Newfoundland?

*looks at his SL name, then pointedly at the Lindens* :eek:

Sounds like the reality of Stephen King's Dark Tower to me, where the land is all messed-up.

Ahhh hurray for Newbie accents! :)

Catch 'em quick before they're ruined by 'content'.

They are deliciously lag-free. *sigh*

Yeah - where are any cities from Western Canada?

Hmmm... I've always wanted to move back to Canada (the heat kills me here) but hubby can't stand the cold. Now I can in SL. :)

The sims are not named after Canadian cities and provinces, but rather Northern lakes. It just so happens that Lake Ontario and Lake Winnipeg are on the list.

But as one who lived in Nova Scotia for 5 years, I'm with Newfie on the eastern provinces question... Where's the Kejimkujik sim?

I am suitably impressed by the appearance of new sims.

On the geography point - did the people who named Kendal, Keswick, Carlisle, Hardknott, Whinlatter etc. just find a battered copy of the AA Road Atlas Britain 1991, open it on the Lake District page and enter random names? ;)

No lakes from west of Manitoba either.

Suggestion to LL: mountain names from western Canada, like Whistler, Black Tusk, Garibaldi, Cypress, Grouse etc. And for Atlantic Canada... hmm... any suggestions, Newfie?

I moved to Ontario and then a few hours later I was flying home and ran into a Mall being built. I guess I have to move already.

Forget Canada! We want a Brixton, a Walthamstow, a Hackney, a Hounslow, a Shoreditch, a Southwark, a Lewisham sim!

Oh, and a Kensington and Chelsea one. With high land prices.

And a Tottenham and a Lee on Sea...
And if we can't have Camden as a market sim, what will we do ??

Camden should be bulldozed.

On a Saturday, when it's full of thirteen year olds playing at being goths.
