After being on the road on my own for so long it was a breath of fresh air to finally see some familiar smiling faces in Andy and Krista (Sarah from the 05/06 Canadian invastion of Adelaide, and Leah on her own hols from Adelaide). A week in the one place was a great and much needed chance to slow things down a little, take in a city full of genuinely nice people (that speak the same language as me), chase a few squirrels and fruitlessly pursue moose and brown bears (not a single one to be found in downtown Toronto´s financial district, who would have thunk it!!). Toronto was the coldest destination of the trip to date, but thankfully the extremely helpful gay guy at one of the radder Queens Street West clothes shops was able to hook me up with a new hoodie!
Hit
- Quality time with quality crew... A massive thanks again to Andy and Kritsa for their fine hospitality and company!
- Tim Hortons.. got the double double
- Toronto Island, complete with nude beach
- Queens Street for bohemian good times
- Begger creativity... including signs that read ´Why lie I need money for pot´and Íf you´re afraid of change give it to me´
- Niagra Falls
- Major League Baseball action
Shit
- Cold nights ... and it´s only just going into autumn, or should I say fall
- Starbucks, it´s everywhere it´s everywhere!
- A confrontation with drunk Canadians in the toilet at the Canada vs Costa Rica Soccer match... there´s always gotta be one!
New York, New York!!!
