Happy Easter


G'day ya bunch of pelicans,
Well it was a big easter weekend and I did lots and lots of walking around toronto. As my friends Gwen and Andreas and I all have metro passes we all buzzed around Toronto on any tram and got lost. We ended up finding this cool non-touristy China Town and walked through all these crazy shops and supermarkets with Chinese techno playing in the background. I ended up buying a fancy sugar-cane drink which wasn't too bad and is apparently good for you. On Saturday morning we went out to Toronto Island which was nice because we had great weather and there was awesome views of the city. On the way to the ferry I did something pretty Aussie. I was runnning down the exculator and did this massive launch off the last 5 steps and then all of a sudden it jerked and stopped working and the crowded exculator was full of people who had to walk down the rest like stairs. Later on the day we walked around all these groovy shops on Queen street and I ended up making myself a digeridoo out of pvc piping and a candle I melted down. By the end of the night Gwen from Singapore and Andreas from Switzerland could both play the didge. We went out Saturday night to this groovy pub and we find out that Dustin Hoffman was there. For the rest of the night I was walking around saying "Excuse me mate where did bloody Dusty go" until eventually the bouncer didn't let me up in the top room anymore. On Sunday we went back to our favourite hang out spot the "Kennsington Markets" where we just chilled out and drank coffee and listened to reggae music. There were so many characters walking around and it was full of Jamacian dreadlock dudes dancing and playing hakisak. So yeah it was a pretty bonza weekend, and I topped it off by watching my Crows win on my laptop, fan-bloody-tastic.

Update ya all in a few days,

Paul the Skip
