Two interruptions in the night. The first one at 3am ish from Smallest to tell us he had a very tiny accident but that it was stopping him from sleeping! We got up to look but it was very tiny and we left him to go back to bed. At 6:45am he came in again, almost in tears, saying that Small had got in the shower before him and how was his hair going to dry in time (for the Baseball game we were off to today).
It was early start today and Huffle said he wanted to be off by 10am at the latest. Smallest made us scrambled egg for breakfast. We were ready and on the road by 9:30pm and as most of the traffic was going the other way (off to their cottages) we had a really easy and quick journey in.
It was a very hot day and we walked along the waterfront making the most of the breeze off the lake. The boys noticed lots of rainbow coloured flags everywhere and Small asked Huffle what they were for. Huffle said he had to get money from the bank and told him to ask me. I said that it was for Women who liked Women and Men who liked Men. He pulled a face. Then I told him that some men marry other men like Elton John. He pulled an even funnier face. He thought that was mighty strange. Today is World Pride day and tomorrow is the big march. Huffle was asked if he would like to march (he he very funny, my friends always said......).
We stopped at the Gelato place where Smallest dropped his ice cream and they very kindly gave him another. Then he dropped it again but caught it. He got in a right mess!
We walked slowly to the Rogers Centre and then made our way into the stadium. Again it was Junior Jays day so lots of things going on for the kids. A nice canoe ride over the lake..........
Watching a chainsaw wood sculpter, juggler and then going inside to cool off for a while. The boys played on the 'baseball drop' again and both won more water bottles. We got tattoos and then walked up the slopes to the top of the stadium. At the top there was a spin the wheel game where Smallest won another water bottle and Small won a placemat (which he really wanted).
TL: Smallest's glass fell onto his tummy and he thought it would look funny if his belly button spoke!!
TR: Smallest's favourite player - Jannsen
Huffle, Moo and I signed ourselves up to be designated drivers and got a free drink each. I asked if it could be Beer but forgot I had pledged I was driving! Whoops. The drinks were very welcome as it was extremely warm. We found our seats and then moved into the shade, at which pint I spilt my huge free drink and we moved again to a less waterlogged and sticky place.
Today the Blue Jays were playing the Chicago White Sox and unfortunately we lost 4-3. We also got Blue Jay bags, glasses and activity books and crayons. In fact we ended up with seven bags. It was a long hot game and we had to have a few walk arounds inside to cool down.
BOTTOM: The boys and I walked all the way round to the other side and took a photo - Moo and Huffle are on there somewhere.
At the end of the game we walked back down to the waterfront and bought some sandwiches and salads and ate them in a shady spot watching the boats and people. Smallest's sandwich got bitten by a passing dog. Churros were also eaten next to the lake but a little bit different to the ones we first had in Spain. These were hollow and filled with chocolate instead of dipping them in. Still very nice though. Wandering around the market stalls and then along the lake we finally got back to the car.
Huffle took smallest into the toilets of the dog cafe. Huffle edit - I was personally disgusted / outraged at the stupid track suits for dogs in World Cup colours (see photo top right). The world has gone mad. The man in the bottom right photo was making a sculpture with balloons - we don't know what it was!
Another really easy trip back (everyone must have got to their cottages by now).
