Trippin' in Toronto!

So I'm back home now, all rested from the trip, more or less.
I had a blast!

Thanks again to *serious* for hosting me in the palace of FluffyEvil, I am ever grateful especially considering how late I got in on Tuesday!

While in Toronto, I discovered that there is Women's Spa called Body Blitz, where for the low low price of $45 (or $35 on Tuesdays!), you can go and soak in a warm salt pool, aromatherapy sauna, infrared sauna, and hot green tea pool!!! Once I got there, I honestly didn't want to leave! It's a very chill space and quite posh for what they are charging. Treatments are extra.

After the spa, I got ready for the show which was held at the Savannah Room, a cabaret style space. Audra and Rosanna did a great job of organizing and many thanks to them both for getting the event rolling and for having the foresight to include the second show! The best part about the show was that although many of us performing are inspired by the same instructors, the artistic touch of each dancer was completely unique. Also, It's been a while since I've heard such a wide array of interesting music, and seen so many beautiful and unique handmade costumes in one show! The show had a lot of variety and was really a pleasure to watch!

The next afternoon, I had the pleasure to hang with Shan who I haven't chilled with since October in Fredericton and man am I glad she's relocated so much closer (ok well actually I think Fred and Kitch are about equidistant from Ottawa but whatever). We explored Queen street and Kensington market, to the chagrain of my wallet.

Thursday evening, I got to play door girl for a weekly d&b and house music event taking place at Escape on 22 Duncan. I can't remember all the dj's but I know that Marcus and Lush gave me hella reason to practice all those locks and isolations that Suhaila and Rachel taught. It was a really fun night and I hope the event goes off again next week!
