Toronto treats

More good things going on here....

Just been for a mega Dim Sum experience in the original China town in east Toronto. They just come round with endless trolly's of traditional food until you can't take anymore - so cheap too - amazing

Proper Chinese bakery next door that was also very cheap, plus the craziest supermarket with everything you can imagine including pick your own live eels or crabs - nice!

When I was here last year I found Hogtown - a skate / snowboard / bmx shop which is pretty friendly and packed out with skate stuff and clothes. Different guys in there to last year but still a good place

Yesterday I found a more bmx orientated shop - Core, which is on Queen St East, have to say - cool as fcuk. Real friendly guys in there, rider owned, proper relaxed, they put the United DVD on so I chilled in there a good while and they even gave me a shop T-shirt - how nice is that!! :) So I guess I'll be making my way past Toronto with my bike to have a ride with these guys next year....although it seems no trails around as parks and street is the thing here....all good though :)

Went to the ROM - Museum the other day too - real good in general and the China Terracotta Army exhibition was amazing.

Well part of me doesn't want to come back, I could def see more stuff here and maybe should have got out of the city to the lakes but been happy chilling about really....

....on the other hand though I have missed alv woods so will be ace to get back up there. Want to ride my bike too....maybe the trails season is coming to an end (or already has) but a roll round the streets will be nice :)
