The L-EH Tour: We're Off to Toronto!



After months of planning, it was finally time to kick off The L-EH Tour, and I could not have been more excited when I got up this morning. After a weeks worth of unseasonal rain and misery in Los Angeles, I was ready to escape, even if it meant escaping to snow (which judging from current Toronto the forecast is a pretty distinct possibility). More importantly, I'd be in the land of hockey lovers! It's like winter paradise...

Our day got off to a super start with a half empty flight and plenty of room to stretch out.



And when we landed in Toronto after a few hours, I immediately fell in love. Hockey is EVERYWHERE! It started in baggage claim, of all places....



Then we got to the Westin and mentioned we were here for the Kings-Leafs game while checking in. We promptly received FREE tickets to the Hockey Hall of Fame!



And because we were starving by that point, we found an awesome sports bar around the corner that had a table right in view of a TV with the Kings-Wings game on!





We had dinner (Nadine even found perogies on the menu!) and watched as the Kings scored a tremendous come-from-behind win against the Wings - IN DETROIT! The game here Tuesday is going to be INCREDIBLE! I love Canada!

But now we're off to bed, because tomorrow we make our Hall of Fame pilgrimage. Until then, good night, Toronto...
