blue_lotus13The day after my reading, I went down to the Art Gallery of Ontario to look at the King Tut exhibit. This was a National Geographic exhibit and it was utterly fantastic. It opened with a short video narrated by Harrison Ford, and then you walked into an area where you could see some of the treasures of the pharaohs prior to King Tut. Then it went to the history of the discovery of the tomb, then a tour of various rooms of the tomb and some of the treasures found in the tomb. Following this, I toured some other galleries in the Art Gallery of Ontario and looked at works by the Group of 7, Henry Moore and other famous Canadian painters. I didn't see the whole museum as the museum is huge and I can only handle museums for about 2-3 hours.
Following this, I met up with [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com],![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sarcasma and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and we went for dinner at Fresh, then a walk, and then a tour of Whole Foods because I had never been and enjoy grocery store tourism.
The next day, I took transit to the airport and hopped on the plane in record time. My flight was non-eventful, except for the fact that I was EXHAUSTED. I took a cab from the airport to my house, and ran to my last dance class. We practiced our tribal fusion piece and everyone was wearing their costumes. My costume is awesome, except I managed to snag my fishnet glove on my seashell bra during the practice. After dance class, I picked up Fergus from my friend Mari's house, and then picked up A from his bus.
The long weekend was pretty awesome- A and I watched movies all weekend, took Fergus for walks and went for Chinese food and dim sum.
Tonight is my dance recital. My friend was going to come see me dance, but her car is dead and she has no way of getting out to the recital, which is in a suburb. I'm pretty disappointed, but what can I do? It just seems to be a bad night for people. Perhaps next time.
