Last Day then Head back home

Our last day was dreary and threatening rain as forecast. That was ok as we had fit so much into our week here a relaxing day was in order. I was awake at 7 thinking of the croissants we should try and score before they were all gone. Sheldon hustled down before 9 to grab some and a cappuccino for us to finish up the last of the creamer. He did however "run into a problem" on the way up in the form of a lady in the elevator spilling the cups. This did not make for a happy camper but once he got the yummy croissant and coffee and laying back in bed, he was better.

It was a relaxing morning watching TV, S catching upon the news with a real English newspaper he made in time to grab before packing up our bags. After 12:30 we checkout leaving our bags with the hotel, grabbing a hot tea and heading back up the hill towards the crepe place. 


After waiting a bit in line we got in with me ordering fresh strawberries, whipped cream and chocolate and Prince going with apples and Swiss cheese.


Our next stop was Chez Boulay counter store to score some of the sugared cream we had on the tour as well as creme brûlée for me and an apple tart for S and a package of steak spice. We enjoyed our desserts sitting on the boardwalk in front of the Frontenac before touring a bit inside again. 


SO GOOD

It was getting closer to our planned Uber call so again headed down the hill stopping at a pub in the lower courtyard for a last cold beer. 




There was a wedding just starting in the old church. 

Back to the hotel, grab the bags and a tea and the uber was there before I got the lid on. This driver whisked us thru town seeing a different route to the airport. We arrived there at 4:25 and it took about 20 minutes to get thru security having us there was to early. We could have pushed another hour out easily but finally we got on our delayed plane to Toronto and taxi off before 7.

We landed in Toronto around 8:30, found our next departure gate with our next flight supposed to be leaving at 10:15. Deciding we should grab a bite Sheldon went to get some but the sushi place was sold out. Next we took all our luggage to an eatery only to find they were closing and directed us to the other end. Once there we finally got a waitress, ordered a cold beer and some soup which by 10:10 had not arrived. We paid the bill got A&W and hustled back to the gate only to find we were DELAYED till 11!! Finally we got home after the most uncomfortable flight after 1 am (we both watched Baywatch... not worth watching) Luckily we had carry on so could go straight to car and book it home by 2. Kaylin was sleeping but Lola was super excited to see us. So much so it took me about half hour to get her in after her guarding duties ;)
