As planned, Norm and I headed to Canadian Tire to buy my very first bike. That's right folks, it's my first bike ever! Norm insisted I buy a youth bike because it was smaller and it would suit me better. The nerve! Luckily the salesman convinced Norm that a women's bike would better suit me after he adjusted the seat to the lowest possible setting. And I couldn't leave the store without buying a helmet as per Francis. Safety first!
We decided against The Taste of the Danforth because of the big crowds and long line ups. Instead we hit the Spadina Street Festival and ended our night at the Hot & Spicy Festival held at the Harbourfront. There we enjoyed the musical talents of the steel drum band, enjoyed a tasting of churro (a spanish dessert) and waited in a long line up for a stick of corn which we later found was worth the wait.
Sunday morning we grabbed our bikes and made our way back to the Harbourfront where we enjoyed a nice Second Cup coffee. Just when I thought summer was almost over... it feels like it has only just begun.
This evening we celebrated Ella's 7 month birthday. Bigdog made a special appearance with his dancing queen and a bag of crispy pata. He was definitely the star attraction. He is also my biggest blog fan (and critic) so Bigdog...this blog's for you!
Woof.
