For Sure...

Right whilst Heike is recovering from Germany's outcome in the 'Soccer' World Cup I've been spending the first few days of my trip with my family in Barrie Ontario. Barrie is about 60 miles north of Toronto, right on the edge of Lake Simcoe.
Weather has been great - 30 degrees - so the locals can enjoy the sun and beaches during the summer and then the ski slopes in the winter.
Been treated to some great days out: movie and family BBQ on Saturday and a trip into the hills on Sunday.
One downside to the trip so far...got bitten by the midges within hours of arriving! Typical! Must have seen the Englishwoman coming! But hey I think its going to be an continual occurence on this world trip!
And why the title 'For Sure'? Seems to be what the kids are in to. But tends to get a wee bit grinding when said at the end of EVERY sentence!
Will be taking my first trip into Toronto in the next couple of days so will report back then.
Ta ta for now!
