Allan Gardens Conservatory

Earlier this month, during the long weekend, we headed downtown for brunch at Chez Firenze. 

The flooded island

A visitor from the other side of the pond (the other, other side) came to visit, and seeing that the summer solstice called for a full day of sun, I suggested we head to Centre Island for some cycling fun.

Blossoms in the park

Wandering around downtown

The original plan was to head to High Park for cherry blossom viewing, an activity I haven't partaken in for the last several years. The night before, there was news that peak bloom would be about 4 days later, but we decided to chance it anyways.

VIA Rail Canada 150

Today marks the last day of the VIA Rail 150 pass, and the end of our adventures this month. Thankful for all the amazing people we met during this trip, and personally amazed that my travel buddy and I did not kill each other. Success!
