On Labour Day weekend of ’09, I flew down to New Jersey. I flew with Porter Airlines, and with their airport being located at Spadina/Bathurst, I could just walk there after work! I had time to go home, shower, pack and simply walk there. In fact, it took me only 15 minutes to walk there and check in! Totally awesome.
Plus, Toronto City Airport is extremely efficient, clean and comfortable. There are a tonne of lounge space available and there’s less rush of people. It only houses Porter Airlines, so it’s really easy too. So much less stressful! Plus, it’s so nice to be able to fly down and back in a weekend.
We drove around a lot. After reviewing my photos I realise that I have so many photos of Tyler (James’ nephew). Probably about half taken by me and half taken by him.
We drove all the way to Maryland where I bought cheap Nike shoes. We also went to a place called Frenchtown and I had some very nice ice cream.
We had lots of nice food. Aunty Glenda cooked a lot Filipino food. They also took me to a place where we ate lots and lots of crabs (but then I got lots and lots of mozzie bites). We also went rafting. Then we also had Korean BBQ. I always eat too much when I’m there.
I didn’t get a chance to visit NYC at all, but I did see it from an outlook from New Jersey over the Hudson River. Pretty. It’s so nice to be able to fly down and back in a weekend.
Tyler playing in the playground across from his house. Was a really nice day to take lots of great photos of him. The colours turned out really nice.
We drove all the way down to Maryland both Saturday and on Sunday. Was so tiring (just being a passenger).
Lots and lots of green grass. So nice to see as opposed to Australia’s dry land.

Me in the car, outside the Nike factory outlet. Had super cheap shoes!
Tyler loves driving cars, especially the BMW. Haha.
