May 21, 2016

Bob: Up bright and early at 8:00!! Went for a 45 minute walk at 9:30 with Elder Budgett. Then we went to the St. Lawrence Market with Elder and Sister Budgett. It is fun to walk around the market and look at all the different food products for sale. Finally bought Hungarian cabbage rolls and Colombian arepas for lunch. Everything was very good.
We stopped at Casa Loma and took some pictures of the outside. It was built by Henry Mill Pellatt in 1911. He and his wife had to move out by 1923 as some bad investments and the Province expropriated his electrical power generating business and his aircraft manufacturing business. It is a pretty impressive residence, the largest ever built in Canada. I saw on the WEB where they have wedding/receptions there. The cost starts at $135 per person.
This evening we went to Canelli's for dinner with 9 other couples. It was a great evening. 3 other couples couldn't be there.
Well I had better get to bed. Hope everyone has been enjoying their weekend. Looking forward to tomorrow and attending another baptism. That's 3 weeks in a row. Love to all and good night brothers.

Bonnie: It's been a fun day. I love going to the St. Lawrence Market! And Casa Loma is an impressive, huge castle in downtown Toronto. For Bob's birthday/Father's Day we will tour the inside of it. Today we just walked around the outside. Tonight, we had dinner with many of the senior couples, delicious Italian food! What could make for a better day?
Tomorrow we will be attending another baptism at 10:00. Then, I will be baking three chicken/ salsa/ rice casseroles between the baptism and Sacrament meeting at noon. There just isn't time to do it before we have to leave. It will make a great feast at Munch and Mingle.
May we all feast tomorrow, not only on delicious food, but also the words of Christ as we honor Him on the Sabbath Day.
Love, Mom/Bonnie
