sunny days are meant for iced coffees and a bike mission

can't resist $1 drinks from McDonald's

note to self: next time ask for half the cream and half the sugar

The Victoria Day long weekend started off with bike shopping downtown with Shannon. We were hunting for a decent priced hybrid bike that is versatile enough for doing 50-80km bike-a-thons but also practical enough to use as a commuter bike. Shannon left the store with a dark silver Trek fx 7.2. I don't know too much about bikes, but it was a beauty! We spent a good part of our afternoon debating whether or not to buy this bike (there was only one left in her size) but finally decided that she loved the bike and most importantly, it didn't break the bank. It also didn't hurt that the man selling us the bike was a charmer ;)

we came across the most talented kids performing at the corner of Queen Street West and Soho Street 

I hope everyone had a firework-filled Victoria's Day (and maybe a pint of beer to go with the view)! Yoshi, however, is trying to hide from all the pops and rumbles from outside. Poor old puppy...
