Big Boys Toys

To CYTZ on the yellow Brompton bicycle on a glorious day for coffee at Druxy's. Check out the yacht moored in the harbour - the Calixe, from the Cayman Islands. The helicopter strapped to the roof of the cabin is the ultimate accessory that says I've got it all.



Off up Spadina to Global Cheese in Kensington Market to stock up. We stop at a bar on Dundas St West for an iced tea on the way home - it was a music store about forty years ago where my pal Ron used to have accordion lessons. By a circular route to Wendigo Way and back to base. I am pleased that I recover quickly from the ride, having kept fit on holiday by walking and climbing hills.
