to the beach!

if I remember correctly, (and this entry tells me that I am: pretty-depressing-total-so-far) i had planned to walk from High Park to the Ashbridge's Bay to try and make up some ground.

I left late, so this is how far I got before I had to get on the streetcar in order to make it there on time.

Last night I bested last year's Islington hike by 10km -- a total of 32.75km, over a walk that started at noon and ended 12 hours later.

Originally I was just supposed to meet up with Pylon for a little event in Liberty Village (an event involving the consumption of DELICIOUS CUPCAKES), but after a whole lotta butter and sugar and a quick brunch at the Brazen Head, I was back on the street heading Westwards.

I wandered on and off Waterfront Trail, took Lakeshore all the way to Kipling, Kip up to Bloor, then Bloor West eastwards. Since I was passing through their neighbourhood, I texted up two of my favouritest ladies in the whole wide world to join me for a pint at Bryden's.

Afterwards I wandered a bit further east, foraging for fast foods. Eventually got on the subway at High Park.

Walked to work. Was reminded in the afternoon that I wanted to check out the beds at West Elm. Walked out that way after work, stopping by a few stores on Queen. Then took the long way back.

A few extra km tonight--tomorrow is 'bee night, so there'll be no energy to spare for walking!
