Picture Highlights/Storybook

... of a day in the life of the adventures of Katie and Julie (a.k.a. Belly and Hazelly).

Well it all began on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Hazelly picked up Belly at her belle apartment and together they commuted to the land of cigarette ads for faces and edible oil products (which we ate for lunch -- although we did avoid the BK Quad Stacker so as to not vomit all over ourselves).

1st stop: Toronto Convention Centre

We attended the Go Abroad fair and got quite a few on tips on travel. We also entered our names in a large quantity of prize draws.

2nd stop: CBC Museum

After Belly and Hazelly were done at the fair, they had nothing to do until 3:00 and therefore an hour of time to kill with no plans... so why not cross the street and check out Peter Mansbridge's headquarters?! (Credit goes to Belly's Li'l Brudder for inspiring her to check out this 15 min treasure). Upon arriving there, Belly and Hazelly were greeted by a beautiful sign indicating that there were only 22 days left to go before the start of Hockey Night in Canada... much excitement! Then upon further investigation and much more excitement (for real), Belly and Hazelly met up with their dearly beloved childhood....

Mr. Dressup's tickle trunk

and Casey and Finnigan's treehouse

and many more (like the Friendly Giant and Bazil Bear).

3rd stop: Destination Nowhere

This resulted in many random skyscraper skyscape photos...

and subway ridin'.

4th stop: John Mayer Concert

After meeting up with 2 of Hazelly's friends at the subway station, the 4 amigos walked to Yonge and Dundas to be entertained... although they had to wait a long time in close quarters with sore feet for it. There were about half a dozen video billboards to watch in the meantime though, including the latest breaking news on the condition of the Montreal shooting victims... just in case you're ever walking by the Eaton Centre and feel the need to know something of this nature. Then Cheryl Hickey and Rick Campanelli finally introduced us to the one and only....

class act/awesome possum. One full hour, in fact. All for free! And right on the heels of his new CD release (Continuum).

Immediately following this concert extraordinaire was the most Toronto Trash/Downtown Dump that Belly has ever known! And among this was the most randomness that Belly has ever known!

Yes folks, that really is an artichoke where adherants of The Mayer once congregated. But the artichoke was nearly outdone by a tiny dog wearing a pink t-shirt, pink tutu, and pink booties... only in this netherworld do you get authentic experiences like this, people! Belly then saw a horseback riding policeman for the first time ever and decided that that was pretty cool.

5th stop: Belly's Pad

Apres le musique, Belly and Hazelly made a long trek back to the M-ham and had Belly's leftover slop for dinner while watching "Dog the Bounty Hunter" marathon on TV.

And so concludes a wonderful adventurous day in the life of Belly and Hazelly.
