  5. Happy -belated- Canada Day!
    I've never been to Canada but it's definately a place I'd love to visit.

    Also, I've noticed that Canadian etsy shops have a particular style that I really like.

  8. I was visiting on Canada Day!
    We visited Toronto and did all sorts of fun touristy things and then sat on a rooftop downtown.
    The weather was lovely this weekend.


    (Though I was quite unhappy to get a parking ticket in the Distillery District. No signage or anything, pulled into a spot vacated by locals and we had even PAID for parking. grr...sniff...boo)
