I’m way too tired, hot, sticky, and sunburned to compose actual sentences. At 11PM, it’s still 23° (although I saw 27° downtown) with 85% humidity. I would choose the nastiest heatwave of the summer for my visit, wouldn’t I?

Would it be an oversimplification to suggest that Canada is like the US with more attractive money and less bullshit?

But why is it that fresh produce in the supermarket is the only thing that isn’t metric and is still sold by the pound?

I could have this as the view from the parking deck every time I went to the grocery store:

The free wifi in my hotel hasn’t worked since I arrived, and per my conversations with other guests, the problem is apparently specific to my computer. But I noticed an ethernet port under the desk, and scurried over to Wal-Mart and Best Buy in search of an ethernet cable. I was not, however, willing to shell out twenty bucks, be it Canadian or US funds. On a whim, I popped into a thrift store on Queen Street and found one for a dollar in a basket of miscellaneous and otherwise useless computer parts. I love thrift stores.

I love Toronto, too, but that’s another post entirely.

Off to Toronto in the morning. I’m not sure how my very new camera will interact with my very old laptop, so you maybe shouldn’t expect photos till I get back to Pittsburgh on Saturday.
