Pouring rain, thunder and lightning delayed my departure this morning, so I only left the house at 1030. The kids had to get the 'last touch' as I cycled off.The ride to Port Credit was great, downhill and with a tailwind. And on quiet roads too. Once in Port Credit, I stayed on the cycle path all the way into Toronto. I stopped and took a few photos of the city as I approached, but the storm brewing behind me forced me to hurry on and find shelter.
I had lunch at the Amsterdam brewery while it rained in buckets.
The last 30km to Scarborough took me ages at the traffic on Kings Road was almost at a standstill.I arrived at about 5.30, met Malcolm's wife and kids, and settled in for the evening.
A hot bath and Chinese takeout soon had me relaxed, and I slept really well.

Too bad about the rain - we could do with it here in The Western Cape! Lovely adventures you are having. Great people you are meeting.
