  Toronto
Kelly and I took a short vacation to Toronto, Ontario. I really enjoyed this vacation because we only did the "sort of" touristy stuff. We sort of made an attempt at seeing the CN Tower (tallest building in the world), but it was hazy so we skipped out. Besides that all we did was visit some neighborhoods, shop, eat all kinds of delectable foods, watch a Blue Jays game (7 rows back!!), try to figure out how to get to places (cab, public transportation, walking, driving, etc), and have some yummy IceWine (restaurants sell it for $25-$30 a glass!).

hahaha i was quickly scrolling through all the pictures and i thought kelly was on your shoulders with all of those hula hoops so i thought that girl is freakin amazing. i had no idea!!! then i realized it was a street perfomer and that's when i thought as "most creative hula hooper" maybe i do have a future afterall.
 
awww, i like the pic u snapped of kelly putting on her make-up. and what is icewine?
 
Icewine is one of the sweetest wines, usually, but not always, used as a dessert wine. I believe it has the highest sugar content which is somehow a result of the fact that they let the grapes stay on the vine until after 1 or more frosts. I think.
 
Dave's pretty much got it. Canada gets a lot colder than most other wine producing locations. Therefore, they usually get a frost by mid october. The grapes will stop growing and will start to dehydrate. Once there is a night when everything freezes after that (in, say, mid december) the grapes are picked and squeezed for their juice. However, since they have dehydrated they only deliver 5%-7% of their usual juice, and they have a much higher concentration of sugar.

Anyway, in the end it is an extremely sweet wine that can only be produced in cold regions (it's super yummy, but we couldn't handle more than a small glass because it was so sweet).
 
awe, cute pics:)
 
Bode, did you not see the blurry marks around his arms? He obviously photoshopped that picture. None of the other pictures have blurriness (or the above mentioned hugeness).
 
Bode, what do you think all of my posts about working out have been about?

Dave, you caught me...I edited that picture to make myself look smaller (so I wouldn't make you cry into your pillow when you got home).
 
Oh, and while we're on the subject of pictures:

Jason, Beyoncé called. She wants her hat back.
 
Beyoncé? I don't get the reference, but I'll look for pictures of her wearing my hat...
 
Love the pics - glad you guys had fun!

I LOVE ICEWINE - it is my fav - we hardly ever have it because it is so expensive - and yes, we do drink it as a dessert wine - especially at Christmas for a special treat.

If ya have never had it, you should give it a try Bek :)
 
Sammon, why were you so bored? Fake Kimber, worried about my roid groping...these are hardly issues of importance.

And for the record, it was not roid groping, I was holding Kelly in place so she wouldn't fall off of my knee ;)
 
You know what, Jason? After watching this, I see that you're right. Beyonce's wearing a bandana that would look gay on any guy. The hat must belong to that Michelle Williams chick.
 
I love the dress that Kelly is wearing. Looks like you guys had an awesome time!
 
Aren't you a little old to still be having wet dreams?
 
So it looks like Moran took another day off of work yesterday. All I can picture him doing is this all day long at home.
 
jason, did u know there is a christian worship singer with cds out, whose name is jason morant?
 
That's a little like saying "Bek, did you know there's a singer who's name is Tek?"
 
Since Moran's blog is so boring lately, I'll give you all something to keep yourselves occupied for 5 minutes.

How I Spent My Weekend
 
that was probably the most boring video slideshow i have ever seen. I will admit that b/c I'm listening to film scores and I had neorammerang playing from the matrix revolutions (a song they played during a war scene) some parts of it got pretty intense, but then it switched to a romantic song and I nearly fell asleep. so anyway, thanks for wasting my time dave.
 
I really don't know how to respond. I hadn't considered the entertainment factor (or lack thereof) when I threw that online.
