So I arrived in Toronto and through directions of Erin (my mothers friend from work) and my map deft driver I found my way into the downtown. I busked up a few bucks at the station and then met Erin and proceded to the Summer Loft. Toronto was a kickin joint and Erin kept me busy with plans pretty well every night. We went to a musical, drank beverages with the various Torontonians and even saw a Nicholas Cage flick. Of course busking galour I even had a wonderfuly kind gal hold my hat and greet people during my performance. Life was grand and relaxing, it had been 8 days on the road up until that point so I was extremely grateful for some cooked meals, a shower and and clothing wash. Erin graciously held me for nearly a week, thank you kindly!
Gosh darn I read books and walked about the city, a fish in a pea pod. I contemplated under the guidance of my mother and Erin to take a bus or train to Montreal given the highway between the two. I decided I couldn't falter now, life on the road must continue. I trained it to a on ramp onto the 401 and boogied on away! Le Francais province lay ahead. Rides getting out of Toronto where quite difficult however because pedestrian traffic is not allowed. So I went anyways and attacked a cop that tried to arrest me! Thank god it was dark or I wouldn't have gotten away.
Haha! Just kidding, I used the onramps for the entire day. I got 250 km's in one day from 5 different rides. Very slow going. I crashed behind the one bush in a field behind the local truck stop and dreamt of flowers and bunnies.
