So - jet lag HOPEFULLY managed by a long sleep on the Hong Kong to Toronto end of our flight.

A stout glass of red upon arrival at Ryan McAllister Towers, and thereafter the Grace Kelly movie (OMG - Nicole: what happened? And we normally LOVE our fave Antipodean princess... second and third only to Les Deux Minogues, of course) sent us into a state of somnambulistic bliss until an hour past. Aye - t'is good to awaken in Canada - with the prospect of 29 degrees. Hmmmm. Cottage? It's time...
