Days Ninety-Nine to One-Oh-Six

Playing catch up here now that I'm back from Canada, eh!

So, eight photos to post & they aren't all taken on the right days, but they are here!  :)

This is the from the amaryllis bulb I planted when I was in kindergarten...still going strong at Mama & Daddy's house!



East Side Mario's was a place we just HAD to go for lunch one day.  I mean, look at the name?  "An American Italian Eatery"?  Who could pass something like this up in Canada?!  It was actually very good!  (That's Sammie on the right & Ashley on the left. They were great to travel with!)


One of our favorite restaurants was called Milestones & we actually went twice - once in Cambridge & on our last night in Toronto.  It is named Milestones because there is food for every milestone in your life - such as a breakup!  All three of us got "The Breakup Tub" for dessert  :)  Cookie dough ice cream with chocolate cookie & restaurant-made caramel.  YUM!!  This was the only night we got dessert & it was worth it!

We went to this restaurant for lunch one day just because of the name....and it was totally different than what we expected!  Kind of fancy for a name like "Beaver & Bulldog", but still good!


These signs were everywhere in Cambridge!!  I wish I would have taken a photo looking straight down the main road because these are back to back lining the road.  Every business had a normal, professional sign...and then these neon ones by the road.  All the same colors, too:  green, yellow, white & orange.  Someone is making a killing off these signs!  (Btw, Tim Horton's that you see on this sign is an amazing donut place!)


The reason we took off 35 minutes late from the Toronto airport.  There are even more that you can't see in the photo just lining up waiting to take off.


All I could think about after we broke through the clouds was: "Oh Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder, consider all the worlds Thy hands have made!  I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy power throughout the universe displayed!  Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee: How Great Thou Art!  How Great Thou Art!"


It was soooooooo good to see Johnny & visit with him!  We are missing Scott, Anne & Erin  :(

Ok, so there are 9 photos so please forgive me  :)
