A Kid Again

As some of you are aware, for my last week in Toronto, Amy came to be with me for a holiday. In one of the books I read about sabbaticals, it said you should travel and have fun during your time away. Well the week with Amy, I became a kid again. We went to two ball games, which the Jays both won, Amy was the good luck charm there. We went to the zoo, the science centre, the museum, the CN Tower, Fort York (which Amy wanted to see),the hockey hall of fame and lastly Canada's Wonderland, where Amy and I spent a full day taking every ride you could, except for the water ones. We went on roller coasters galore and loved it. It is good just to relax, unwind and have fun no matter what age. Too often we do not take the time to just enjoy the simple pleasures of life, of spending time with one another and doing fun things. The sabbatical allowed me to do that with Amy, and come away tired physically but refreshed emotionally.
