Dancing in the snow

My dear Friends

The rainbow bridge between Cambridge and Toronto seems even closer now because of the cold weather.Cambridge has been suffering bouts of snow over the last few days and today is the coldest its ever been. I am reminded of all those happy times I visited Toronto in the cold and snow, taking refuge in those marvellous shopping malls in the city where people go to shop, or just hang out and talk to their friends. It's lovely to see the old people sitting on benches and making new friends.

Here the malls are much smaller and not so friendly.Thinking again of Toronto, I paid a visit to the Eaton shopping in the downtown area on one occasion. Beside the fountain, I chatted to a guy of about forty years old who told me he was born and bred in Toronto and how much it had changed. He struck me as a kinda easy going guy, who liked to hang out in the mall in the hope of making new friends.

I want to prepare for this trip well. Going back to this city is like going back to an old friend. They say old friends are like old wine-they mature until they taste better.This time I will be visiting in the summer, where I hope my old friend is waiting for me -to give me an embrace.

Shalom from
Gila
