Downtown Kingston

21.06.12
Downtown Kingston.
Temperatures spiraling out of control.
One great thing about returning to Canada is the opportunity to catch up with old friends and enjoy summer in the Limestone city. Last night I caught up with Pat and Diane who were celebrating their last ever day of teaching. After a brief sojourn around their pool, we ordered Greek takeout before making our way down town for gelato to die for. As an added bonus I got to enjoy the summer solstice with many other like minded Kingstonians out for an evening by the lake.
The following day, Don and Linda also took me downtown to lunch at Woodenheads - a busy pizza joint. Again, we took every opportunity to escape the searing heat whilst still exploring the city. Being National Aborigines Day, there was entertainment (Aboriginal style) in the city hall amphitheater.
Back home , my gracious hosts and I sojourned to the back deck for drinks and dinner. It sure is nice to experience a little piece of summer!
