Road trip! I started with a conference in London...actually pretty interesting, despite the impending snowsquall. Picked up RoadTripBuddy and headed back to G-Town at about 1:00 am in full-on snowsquall, and almost died more times that I care to count. On Friday, we hit the road from G-Town to Niagara Falls. Again, the snowsquall threatened to kill us, but after 2 hours we finally drove out of it. We arrived in Niagara Falls in the afternoon, checked into the hotel...and headed straight to Mall #1. Saturday consisted of more...shopping (*surprise*!). RoadTripBuddy and I crossed into New York, and hit up Mall #2. After many, many hours of Mall #2...we drove all the way to Buffalo for Mall #3 (isn't Buy Nothing Day around now? Umm...whoops?). We ended up crossing back over the border around 10 pm or so, having spent a wonderful half hour in Customs so I could give them $10...way to use your time efficiently, Customs folks! Remembering that we were at Niagara Falls, Sunday morning was spent admiring the Falls. Sunday afternoon, we sped gleefully back to Toronto, and promptly lost the car at Mall #4, causing RoadTripBuddy to almost miss the 10:45 pm flight out of Pearson. Monday and Tuesday were spent in Toronto, working hard, lounging in fancy hotels, and schmoozing to the extreme. Tough life, I know... I had no idea that I'd be so excited to be...home? Is that what I'm calling G-Town these days? Requisite weekend documentation: Before the shopping started:  After Mall #1:  After Mall #2:  After Mall #3 (remember...it's not all mine!):  The required pictures of the Falls:   Liberated at 6:43 p.m. | |
