Booze is good. I had a rum and cola with lunch today (and was tempted to order some triple sec with orange juice or something) at a pub, and went to a liquor store and bought some orange\/pineapple wine to have with the leftover brie as a snack. I also have a bottle of hard raspberry lemonade in the fridge awaiting sometime when I&#8217;ve had fewer than 2.5 drinks in a half hour.<br \/>\nDrinking is good. Drinking in excess is not. I think this is something a lot of college students need to figure out. Meh.<br \/>\nIn any case, I haven&#8217;t gotten carded once while here. I guess I look significantly older than 19.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight (rather soon, actually), we&#8217;ll take the ferry to the island south of Toronto and hang around there a bit, hopefully getting photos of the sunset.<br \/>\nThere will be plenty of piccars posted to photos 2 eventually.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today has been spent traveling the city by subway and streetcar, which has been awesome.
