Slack Torontonian BLOG Postings...
Hey Hey Hey, I thought to myself I have been quite slack in updating the blog lately, so here goes.
I have still been enjoying the sleep-ins and have come to realize my natural wake up time is 11:51. Just a little different from the 4:35 I was trying to maintain! Since my last post I have spent 1 month here in Toronto and in that time so much has happened. I am moving into my new apartment which I am sharing with an Irishman a Pakistani and another Aussie, sounds like the beginning of one liner joke.
In the mean time I have been getting my bearings in the area and now know how to get most places of interest.
Now for what I have been up to lately as I am sure you are all dying to know what’s been happening! Jenn took me to the Canadian Exhibition or Ex for short which is like a carnival but better, they had a show somewhat like Cirque de Soleil which was amazing.
I have met Jenn’s parents and what started out as a lunch in downtown Toronto ended up morphing into a fantastic day of sightseeing and so much eating I felt sick. Jenn’s dad took us to see Niagara Falls, which was obscured by all the rain and mist so you couldn’t actually see anything. It was still a lot of fun with the jibes about the diehard local Amish who didn’t need raincoats.
I have been to a few parties and birthdays of Jenn’s friends who are all very nice and amused because apparently I have quite an accent! The hide of them… We have eaten out quite a bit at some of the local restaurants which there seems to be a disproportionate amount of Japanese, not that I ‘m complaining! I don’t think I have done so much walking ever. Downtown Toronto is very flat and thus walking from A to b is easy. When it starts snowing I’m sure that will change.
Finally this weekend Jenn and I are heading north to go hiking and see the “Fall Colors”. I will update on a more regular basis and the next post will come with some nice Canadian country photos!
Ciao
