November 5th (dia treinta y seis) - Back with family in Toronto
Hoping for a quick and easy ride to Toronto (seven hours) we were sadly disappointed as we were hit with torrents of rain, shards of ice and freezing cold winds. Welcome back to Canada!
We were caught by these torrents of rain only fifty kilometers from my cousin's house in Toronto, and unfortuantely Mihai's jacket isn't exactly water proof. The lesson is to never cheap out on riding gear, because this could be the only thing keeping you alive. Mihai, very much wet and nearly suffering hypothermia, we at least arrive in Toronto safely through some of the hardest rain we've seen, once again in the dark.
Unfortunately my cousin didn't get my message and it just fell on the night they had big plans. So while we liked the idea of hanging out with the very cute fourteen year old babysitter, Ky would have none of that! Off we scoot to a hotel (which fortunately had a jacuzzi!) for the night that her radio station was kind enough to provide.
