We headed out to New York Subway for an excellent jumbo satay lamb burrito while also taking a look at the fire damage on Queen Street West. It is a shame that the old building were destroyed. Hopefully some new age condo doesn’t take its place.
I managed to find Fleetwood Mac’s debut album on vinyl for $5 downtown. After witnessing Uncle Greg’s vinyl collection a few weeks back, I’ve realized that if I can find any old classic rock albums on vinyl for cheap, it is a bonus to my collection. So if anyone out there is getting rid of their vinyl, let me know!
Krista ended up meeting up with Jill further downtown (after a mishap with Jill staying at a friends overnight but waking up to some swollen eyes because she is allergic to down pillows!) and Mike and I met up with Miguel. I haven’t seen 
him since our trip to New York City so it was good to hook up. We ended up at a random corned beef house and then headed to Smokeless Joe’s which is a great time if you like some imported beers. We tried a few beers from around the world, with Mike starting from the top of the list in Belgium.
Considering the sun was going down, Mike and I left Miguel to head back to the homestead, ordered some Chinese food (which was AMAZING the last time we were in town a few weeks before but pretty horrible this time around….how does that happen?), played some cards and then headed out to the Swan and Firkin on Bloor Street (which was just down the block from us). It was a decent time and we all had some good laughs when I (supposedly) proposed to Mike (because he’s just that swell of a guy) and Krista kept getting some awful martinis delivered to her.
Headed home, watched some Boogie Nights on television and then awoke the next morning to clean up a little, grab some breakfast at the Swan and Firkin (not the best…everyone should head for the Sunset Grill) and hit the road back to Ottawa.
All in all, a good trip to Toronto with good times, good friends and good music!
