October 23, 2010--Day Twenty-Four!

Today was the day my sidekick was going to be gone for the day--he had registered and was very excited to attend the Thunder Bay seminar where he was to train with Tribe and Ohmi Sensei.

Since he was off to that very early I was able to sleep in, and then I was spoiled with an incredible breakfast of fruit and toast and eggs and bacon at the B&B.

After that I had some much-needed Emails and blogs to catch up on so that is what I did.

I also rested, and watched TV and searched around on the net and then my tummy started to grumble.

I decided then that I would go search for food and investigate Thunder Bay in one sweep. We were situated close to the casino and I got a sense very quickly that we were definitely in the rougher area of Thunder Bay.

I wandered to a McDonald's, which I had found on a map of Thundery Bay, and then I walked along the Lake and Marina Park. It showed the sleeping Giant very well and offered a shiny look at the Lake itself so that environment was very calming. Much of the boardwalk was under construction, so I was not able to walk all along it, so I decided to find a bench and just enjoy the nice weather (first time ever!..haha jk!)

When I had had enough of that I decided it was getting closer to when Alexander would be back from his training, so I headed back to the B&B.

He arrived not too long after and then we got ready for the dinner that Cruise Sensei had planned for the members who attended the seminar and their partners/kids.

The restaurant-- T&A (called that by the locals) was literally a block away from our B&B so that worked out really well. We had been given some faulty directions (off by one block) but we found our way to the restaurant none the less.

We chatted with everyone there and were given a huge dinner with endless supplies of food. We had salad, pizza, pasta, veggies, chicken, and roasted potatoes. It was absolutely delicious!!!

After our meals were over a magician came in and awed us with his incredible-ness.

I am still in awe at how some of those stunts go down. Maybe one day I can become a magician and then I will be able to figure them all out!!!

After dinner it was bedtime!

More site-seeing to do tomorrow!!
