Toronto

I arrived safe and sound (well almost sound) last evening (Tuesday 15 August). My flights were fine - nothing too memorable, even the transfer in LA was effortless, except for getting coffee at Starbucks. What a line up?!
Anyway, I arrived in Toronto, promptly jumped in a cab after standing around for what seemed like an eternity waiting for my luggage, and ended up at the hotel. Hubby was no where to be seen so I showered and changed. After 20 hours of flying I was desperate for some clean clothes and a facial.
Hubby called and I joined him at Zelda's - a cafe in the ghetto. It was a fun evening. I stayed up til 10pm which is weird - I thought I would be a zombie by 8pm. All I wanted to do was sleep but I didn't do much of that last night. I mean...I woke up a few times during the night and then woke Alan up at 6am. I couldn't take it any longer. He wasn't impressed.
Alan and I had breakfast in the village. Canadian French toast and bacon. With bottomless cups of coffee. Hubby is now attending the World Aids conference and I get to shop or at least window shop! The weather forecast for the rest of the week will be around 26C and sunny.

Hi darlings,

I'm off to TO (that's Toronto for those who don't know...) for some R&R. The hubby is attending a conference. I get to play for a few days before we head to Barrie and then Ottawa to visit family. How excitment. I never thought I would be travelling back to The Big 'O' after our last visit in October last year.

We're staying at the Cambridge Suites Hotel on Richmond Street, near Church Street. And it's summer over there so I can enjoy hot summer nights and cold beer at a sidewalk cafe...or sparkling champers!

Luca is going into a "hotel" for 12 days. It will break her little heart but I'm sure she'll be well looked after.

Now I have to prepare for the long flight(s). I'm travelling cattle class again!
