Toronto, ON

I'm a bit behind in my blogging. There will be a knitting post later this afternoon with projects and yarn store info, but I haven't finished posting our road trip, so I thought I would give you some photos to look at in the meanwhile.

After visiting Jai and the babies in Detroit, we made our way to Toronto, Ontario. My friend Gabby resides in Toronto and her and her boyfriend Sean were gracious enough to let us crash there for a couple of nights- canoe and dog and all. It was actually a reunion of sorts, since the last time we had seen each other was when we lived in London together exactly 10 summers before. (For some reason that sounds so much better than 10 YEARS ago, which is what is was. *sigh*)Here you can see how fun our illustrious hosts are, being all silly for the camera before we are about to cook our dinner. What every good Toronto tourist needs before a day of sightseeing: Canadian moolah and a Tim Horton's coffee. (There is one on every block downtown- trust us, we checked)Statues and fountain.Pretty church framed by trees.Toronto's answer to Times Square.Outdoor seating at great pub that provides rest to the weary in the form of shade, cold beer, and fish and chips.We had to do it, the fish-and-chips-in-a-pub thing, that is. When you're only a tourist for a couple of days, you have to just embrace your tourist-ness and indulge in all the nonsensical whims you fancy, while you can. Yummmm... unabashedly waiting for fried goodness....Yeah! They're here! Eat up!
