Boarding a Jet Plane: Toronto Visit

Friday (May 2, 2014)

Took 9:30 AM bus which arrived at 3:15, took the subway to Union station to wait for mom and dad
They did not show up until like.. 5 PM because they had just arrived by plane at 3:30, got their luggage at 4 and it takes like.. An hour to get to Union Station from the airport so I was super bored

Sat on my backpack at the station eating McDonalds and started to read the first book of Game of Thrones

Arrived at the apartment, then went out to look for food because mom and dad were starving

Went to eat at Ki (Japanese restaurant)
Not bad, order pork ribs, sashimi (Mackeral - ew, salmon, tuna, horsetail), side of mushrooms and asparagus
The mushrooms/asparagus were SO FREAKIN SALTY I NEARLY HAD A HEART ATTACK
Mackeral has a really fishy taste as sashimi
Sake tastes better hot than cold

Supposed to go to Lawrence Market for breakfast but mom and dad didn't wake up until 10:30 and we didn't end up leaving the apartment until 12:30 only because we were meeting Yo and Kat for lunch at 1 PM
Walked over to the AGO/OCAD area and then to pho - Yo didn't come
Went to see Yo's art show (a lot of stuff to see, only made it down 3 floors out of 6... Well 3.5)
Went to eat dessert with Kat (Asian desserts - black glutinous rice in coconut milk with mango)
Went to Guu (Izakaya) and had takoyaki, gyutan, salad, salmon tataki
Kat actually had to go to Walmart to buy something for her sister and had to leave early - at around 8:30 but mom and dad were eating dinner with one of dads friends so they weren't going to be back until 9 and I had nothing to do

Wandered around downtown for 1hr-ish (took a square up University to Queen St. And then walked over to Bay and zigzagged back down to York and where the apartment was
Made it there by 9:45 and mom and dad still weren't there - they didn't show up until 10:45!!
Apparently they got lost and were waiting for a train at the wrong station and then the station they were at wasn't Union so they had to walk back down and whatever but OMFG

Sunday (May 4, 2014)

Mom and dad had really early morning dim sum at somewhere super far away (dim sum at 10:30 they had to leave at 9 AM) - so they left and I stayed and slept in, they gave me the keys this time
Seeing Kat, Sam, Jenn, Rachel for Snakes and Ladders and dinner at Korea Town

Monday (May 5, 2014)

Had dim sum with family except we were kind of late, met with Yo at Finch st. And then took a bus to dim sum
Headed to the zoo although it took WAY LONGER THAN IT SHOULD HAVE (google lied!) - took a bus and then a train and then a super long bus ride - arrived at 3
Stayed at the zoo until 6:30

Had dinner at the CN Tower - 8:15 reservation but we arrived a bit late and probably didn't get seated until 8:40-ish and we were all STARVING BY THEN
