This is what I love about Toronto!!!

Over Labor Day weekend we moved my oldest daughter up to Toronto for her fourth & final year @ University of Toronto.

 

No trip to Toronto can be done without us taking time to walk about the city and taking in all the sights.

 

This year we found some pretty unusual & interesting things that we took pics of.

 

So, in true Ladi fashion, I thought i'd share some of those pics with all of you!!

FIRST, i had to show you the following. See, this year Jessica is staying off of campus, renting a room in a house with some other students/ friends. That means we had to bring her bed and some furniture along for the ride.

 

We put the box spring mattress on the roof of my vehicle, and the rest of her stuff in the van. I put a waterproof mattress cover on the box spring because when we departed it was overcast & raining in some areas. i didn't want the box spring to get wet, right?

 

Note to self: get a better mattress encasement (this one did NOT survive the ride from Michigan to Toronto... laugh.gif )
