Mmmm, coffee

the journal of Michael Werneburg

We found an amazing coffee place on Yonge street just south of Carlton. Absolutely fantastic.

And then we walked down the street to the Eaton Centre and I was happily surprised to see that the eternal blue hoarding at the corner of Dundas and Yonge is finally gone (after what, ten years?). I also managed to get the battery for my laptop rebuilt. Woohoo!

On the march back to the hotel, we popped into a jewelry place and met an interesting fellow who helped us sort out what we want. We put in a deposit. Hopefully next week, Mari will finally have a ring!

In the evening we went to The Rebel House and had some of their excellent wings. The girls had their first exposure to decent poutine, as well.

Then we paid $14 to park the car and went for lobster. I'm not a huge fan of the stuff, but they made it well at this place out on King Street West. Which is, of course, a neighbourhood I barely recognized. The march of condos into the core and surrounds is really something -- it's starting to resemble Vancouver.

We went down to the harbourfront afterward, and attempted to see the sights in the midnight gloom.
