What did the Hawes family need more than anything else? A change of scene, some family time, to put a little distance between us and the upswell of stress and strain that life's ocean has recently put in the path of our normally happy little ship.
The summer hols have arrived in the nick of time, for us, and today we have experienced the sights and sounds of a foreign city through the slightly surreal haze and numbed senses endowed by a longish plane flight and a five hour time difference.
We hopped on a yellow bus to tour the happy and vibrant city, stopping off at museums and eateries and tempting shops.
A perfect day but we're done with cities for now, having reached our 36 hour tolerance and we're off to brave the Torontian traffic tomorrow to see for ourselves if the Niagara Falls are all they're cracked up to be.
love the shots - especially in the museum - have a great time
