Back From Toronto

Chuck and I were in Toronto this weekend.  We stayed at the Hilton right across from Pearson Airport, so we could watch the traffic.  It’s really amazing how many flights go out of there every day.  Here is a picture of the tower from our room:

Most of the planes we saw taking off were Air Canada (however, the bird in this picture was not):

After some plane watching on Saturday, we went to Arizona’s for dinner.  It was great – we had the back room to ourselves, complete with a free pool table.  Surprisingly, I got this one in.  I really suck at pool:

We took a break from playing and had an amazing meal.  We both got the BBQ bison burger.  Oh yum!  This picture makes it look a little yucky, but it was one, if not the best burgers I’ve ever had:

Neither Chuck or I are big bread folks, so we didn’t eat the bun. 

After dinner, we went back to play pool.  I did as well with mittens on as I did without.  What does that tell ya?

After I drained a few kegs, we were ready to head back to the hotel:

I told Chuck how relieved I was that no one walked in while I staged the above photo.  I guess it doesn’t matter though since I’ve just posted it on the Internet!  Duh!

The next day consisted of more plane watching, a trip to Timmy’s, then over to a road near the runway where we watched some more planes much closer up:

Pictures like these really make me love my camera!

Before heading home, we stopped at the Fantastic Flea Market at the Dixie Mall.  It was a great flea market, unlike the one we went to on Saturday.   I won’t mention what it’s called, but you can check it out HERE.  It’s not one we would go back to.

It was nice to be home to see the kids.  I don’t think they missed us but I sure missed them!

Today’s symptoms: Actually feeling pretty good after my exciting weekend!  I guess we’ll see if it hits me tomorrow.
