Fantastic report and I wish you a wonderful holiday

And I echo Bianca's recommendation of Indigo - we spent many happy hours in there

Indeed Joan Getting anyway on time with all bags accounted for has to be a good thing!

I love the large Canadian bookstores. Have you been to any (or all!) of the Indigo stores in Toronto? They encourage you to relax and enjoy the stores, as well as buy.

Is there a careful strategy for American Girl shopping? One which involves many visits and much relishing of the experience. (That display is a little Stepford scary, though!)
Chapters where AG is is an Indigo store! It is perfect that it is there as O happily explores the books whilst F looks at the AG stuff!

The strategy is a visit every day - she loves it so why not

Thanks Karen - Chapters seems to have that ethos too! Relax and enjoy the shop (I guess people buy more that way )

Long day but pretty good really for the necessary evil that is " getting there". As a mum of two sons, I will never experience the American Girl doll thing ... It really does look quite incredible in how they have done it.
Glad you are there and it's all looking good.

Thanks Jo - the apartment was excellent! We really benefited from being able to walk into the centre.

Flying direct really was a treat!

AG is such a huge thing - F spends hours making clothes, doing photo shoots, making videos! It is so very creative!
