Mission: Catch-Up

This is gonna be the longest "brief" yet.  Boo for not updating right away.


Phase 1

The 8 hour drive to Toronto was anything but uneventful.  Half an hour into the trip, my dad realized he had forgotten his cell phone.  After about 2 and a half hours, we stopped at the Crossings like we usually do for a quick potty break and 2 hours after that, halfway into the trip, my brother realized he forgot his cell phone in the bathroom.  Now, this is both funny and exasperating because my brother has a tendency to lose things in rest stop bathrooms.  When he broke the news back in the car to my mom and me, I checked to see if I had my phone so that I could laugh at him without being hypocritical, and I saw that I had a missed call from Leo...from 10 minutes beforehand.  Whoa.  Obviously, someone had found the phone and tried to call me.  I know it was completely explainable (word?) but still, weird, since my phone-less bro was sitting in the car with me.  Well, I couldn't call him back so we suspended the account and went on our merry way.  Next stop was the Buffalo outlets, which proved useless because our sole purpose was Coach but the line was 3 hours long...but we didn't come away empty-handed.  We got girl guide cookies, oh score.

After crossing the border, driving another hour and a half, then checking into the hotel, we went to Woodside for Shoppers and Pizza Pizza then hustled on over to White Heather to some fam friends' house.  I stayed for only a little then my friends picked me up to go get some dinner.  It was amazing.


You know what? I'm really not doing this any justice.  It was a such a fabulous time and I just can't work up the energy to get through all 5 days, so I'm just going to have to rely on my pictures and fabulous memory (scoff!) whenever I get a nostalgic tingle down there...in my heart.  Perv. 

Actually, come to think of it, I did blog since last Friday, it's just that I posted on my other page.  Feel free to check it out, along with all the other posts.
