Why Do Montrealers Hate Toronto?

So the Habs did pretty poorly the previous two games, but last night was something else!

My week-end in Toronto was pretty interesting. I like the city. Most of my friends don't like Toronto though, some even claim to hate it. Getting around is a pain, traffic is a nuisance and most of the drivers don't know how to drive. I'm convinced most bribe their way into getting a licence, I know a few people who've done that even here! So when you think how the heck did that person get his/her licence to drive, technically some really shouldn't have.

I got a lot of shopping done, which is always a good thing. And I couldn't stop eating, the outdoor food stalls and downtown restaurants kept tempting me. I also thought people there were quite friendly for the most part.

So I've finally figured out my India photo theme to showcase at my friend's restaurant. I'm happy with my selection, hope clients are too! They still need to be developed though, I'll get to that this week.

Have a great long week-end!

TGIF!

Man, another rainy morning! Did you know I only saw rain twice in India during my five months there? It’s not because the country never had rain, just that back then, I was always in the right region at the right time. The reminder of all the warm weather that embraced me there is making me a bit nostalgic.

My cousin in Gujarat isn’t dealing too well with what’s considered normal weather for there right now. It goes up to 40C, yikes! Kushboo and I have been keeping in touch mainly by email. I keep asking for updates on the people I met in the “Sattlelite” building. There are days when all I want to do is grab a delicious, inexpensive bite at Havmore or go for a crazy shopping spree at one of the local markets…

I have a busy week-end ahead. I’m doing some overtime tonight and then packing for a Toronto get-away. We’re driving off at 6am tomorrow. I’d like to share more details about our little road trip but my friends wouldn’t be too happy about that.

Oh, the Habs won 5-2 in Game 7! Things are getting interesting! Have a fabulous week-end!
