Toronto

Social media reminded me yesterday that one year ago I was cavorting about Canada with my dear friends. Our quick little getaway was filled with tapas and dim sum, Canadian poutine and German sausages, sweet treats and, as Al would said, “dense cakes.” If you ever have the opportunity to head to Toronto, drop what you’re doing and take it! (And please bring me along for the ride, because I aim to be an international delight.)

Hong Kong Part III

Bless you if you’re still following along with my Hong Kong travelogue. This day was jam-packed with exploring all over Hong Kong Island and riding the double-decker trams back and forth for $.29. Krystle and I also purchased tickets to visit the top of Victoria Peak in the afternoon. When I visited Hong Kong in 2007, it was far too cloudy and hazy to justify making the trip up the mountain, and I was so hopeful that I’d get to see a sunny view of the harbour this time around. Overcast skies most of the day had me feeling pretty worried, but by the time we made it to the top, the sun had broken through the clouds, and the view was everything I had hoped it would be.
