I don’t think I’ll ever spend a whole week in Toronto – Its ridiculous how frequently I spend little busts of time here.
Director Nick picked me up from the airport – its super nice because I’m actually seeing him more often than I expected. We headed to the Loose Moose by the Fairmont hotel for “Sliders” (rad mini burgers), and cheered for the Raptors as they almost made it back from a close game.
[Clarification: Neither Nick or I even remotely enjoy basketball]
I ended up taking a “standby” ticket for an earlier flight, in hopes of making it back to Calgary an hour earlier. I did make it on, and Air Canada decided to award me with leaving my baggage behind. To make up for missing my baggage, they gave me this wonderful pity kit, complete with toothbrush, razor, laundry detergent and a fresh XL undershirt (I barely fit smalls).
Oh, and one more thing – Air Canada is a complete sell-out, and not in the good way. They have advertisements that play after the safety video, with audio throughout the whole cabin, and also three minutes of non-stop advertisements before you watch any show. Hard to believe we pay so much money just to be bombarded with ads and bad service.
Thanks Air Canada.
