Summer days

There is something so unreal about summer in Toronto. We spend the the winter months dreaming of the days when we can finally wear flipflops and shorts again. I for one am always so desperate to wear sandals, that I started wearing mine at the beginning of April when it was still a tad bit chilly out. I bet anyone walking by seeing a girl in flipflops and a coat got a good laugh. Either way, the air is warm and the days are getting longer (the sun is still visible after 8pm). There is really nothing to complain about. School is winding down for the ones that aren't in University. Weekends are spent at the cottage, or at the beach. Summer is truly the reward for the cold dark months of winter we suffer through each year. It is that needed break of relaxed weather. I know once we hit July and the smog alerts start and the humidity starts to rise I will probably have a different outlook, but for now it is simply bliss. Laying in the sun, reading a book, listening to my ipod, drinking san pelligrino to stay cool. It sounds phenominal. I was always envious of those living in Vancouver. They don't really get the cold weather we do here, but they definietly do not get the hot we do either. They may get moderate weather all year long, but we get the coldest of cold and the hottest of hot. In Toronto we get the best of both. Hopefully this summer will be a hot and humid one unlike last year. Although with the garbage strike last year I am kind of glad it wasn't brutally hot because all that garbage would have been more awful than it was. All in all I hope its a great summer, with great weather.

Happy Wednesday, it really only gets better after wednesdays.
Enjoy
