Last day in Canada

Up earlier than we needed to be this morning, but we used the time and headed out for a walk in Chinatown before returning to the hotel to utilise the late check out and shower.

Once checked out, we headed for a walk around the city, through the Eaton Centre and down to the harbour front, before heading into the Blue Jays store so Ben could buy a souvenir baseball (and I got a baseball bat pen ☺).

Heading back up Yonge for a cheap and quick dinner in the Eaton Centre, a final farewell frozen lemonade at Tim Horton's and a game of crib at Bar Hop (in which Ben lost one of my crib pegs...😟). As much as the frozen lemonade is amazing, it does have a tendency to result in crippling brain freeze, which won't be missed.

We picked up our kit from the RCMI and headed to Pearson airport for our midnight flight, where a boring wait was made more interesting by the presence of the Canadian Paralymic Team flying out to Rio.
