Just got in from Pearson International Airport, I really didn’t need a plane to come back as I was still flying from the time at the Ottawa Magic Festival. What a blast! I was standing at the hotel desk talking to the clerk , when I turn around a tall gentlemen sticks out his hand and says, "Hello, I’m Harry Anderson !" I was in shock ! What a treat to talk to this legend of magic and comedy.

On Saturday was the workshop with Jeff McBride ( he is in the Guinness Book of Records for the world’s fastest hands doing card manipulations ). Jeff was fantastic in explaining new ideas and how to grow professionally as an illusionist. I picked up many ideas. Jeff even confirmed that taking theater technology was the next step in my career.

After lunch, I met the Jonathan & Charlotte The Pendragons ( from America’s Got Talent ). Again, another fantastic opportunity to talk with professionals.

That night, I was invited to sit with Lawrence Larouche & Cynthia Martin ( MAJINX ), Jeff McBride and Jonathan & Charlotte the Pendragons as they just talked over a few drinks. I sat back and absorbed their stories. They even laughed at my picture and story of the Dutch magician Hans Klok !

Got to get some sleep as tomorrow, I leave the country and fly to my greatest adventure yet to meet the world’s best and tour his private museum.

Until later,

Lucas
