A day in the sun

Toronto, Ontario, Canada
another lazy start w a walk to the ferry tomtoronto island. island is nice, quite chilly when the wind blows. rented a quadrabike to peddle from one end of the island to another. got a bit burned in the sun. there's an airport and the clothing optional beach.

back on the mainland and very hungry, we head to st laurence market. market has some interesting tennants but looks a bit out dated. we settle for an indian opposite the market - tasty enough but really because we r both so hungry. while we walk over to the distillery area we encounter a small coffee place coffee academy so we stop by for a macchiato. the distillery area itslef is an enclosed former distillery company grounds now repurposed for retail. baccardi was having some sort of promotion thing their and it was busy .... pity since the buldings were all rather cute. the chocolate shop soma has and outpost here so derek buys 4 more bars of their white chocolate and their gelato ( burnt honey, salted caramerl). on our walk back to the hotel we also sample greg's icecream (pear and ginger)

back at the hotel, derek goes for a swim (which turna into a run in the gym) and ai have a nice soak

we head out to kensington market again, dinner at eknsington corner ( nice enough, but nothing special) followed by a pint at the thirsty and miserable bar.
