The first snow of the season fell today, prompting the usual round of insanity? that comes with the first real sign that winter is here!
Traffic is snarled with minor accidents as if Canadian drivers had never seen the stuff before and some diehard people? still go out with shorts and light jackets as if to deny the fact that it is cold.
The hostel was not immune to the madness that comes with the arrival of snow. A group jumped on the streetcar and headed for High Park in the city’s west end to try their hand at sledding and tobogganing.
The only real problen is the fact that they had no sleds or toboggans!
Their solution to this minor problem was to raid our kitchen for cooking trays and woks. These items were then placed under their rear ends so they could slide wildly and merrily down the hills of High Park.
It’s fortunate that no limbs were broken and it also lucky that all the items were returned (only slightly damaged) so that Teresa, our head of housekeeping, didn’t whack anyone with her broom!”

An improvised sled!
A snowman? You call that a snowman?
Coffee and Hot Chocolate after sledding.
