So, my daughter & I had to pick up SWMBO at school today to go do some final shopping for the Camino. As we're driving into downtown Toronto, many distractions. Two film shoots (not sure what) then 12 women dressed each as the Statue of Liberty on each corner of an intersection - doing a promotion for an airline. Then 5 people all in yellow tops and black pants doing a promotion for a paintball company, 20 feet down the road 6 women in white tops and green bottoms doing a promotion for a new beer, turn the corner and 8 more in white promoting pizza. Needless to say everything is distracting. Well, pick up my wife, we're retracing our route, some of the promotions have moved on, some remain and I am describing to her the sheer volume of what we saw when I say, "Oh and there is a camera crew waiting to do an interview. There. The announcer has a very short skirt that the wind keeps lifting." Fine. car moves forward 5 feet and all of a sudden from the backseat daughter says "and now she's topless."

Queen street, Toronto, 2 pm in the afternoon.

And I kept my eyes on the road!!!! :angel:
