Yonge And Wet

Last Saturday, after a long day of wandering the streets of downtown Toronto, we ended up on a patio looking down Yonge Street just north of Wellesley. We settled in under an umbrella and after a short time the rain began to fall. It rained steadily through two pints, at which point the umbrella was only stopping 80% of the rain. We transferred ourselves and our gear to an awning covered section of the patio and from there spent a little longer basking in the glow of the tail-lights reflected off the glassy asphalt before heading home.
