Canada vs Jamaica Football

Alex and Dad
Dad and Alex and I went to BMO Field last night to see the Canada vs Jamaica world cup qualifier. Not really a big football fan, but I thought Alex would enjoy the big game feeling, and a full day of cricket might be too much for him. Turned out to be a lot of fun, and we were pretty satisfied with the 1-1 result.

Problem came trying to leave… what a mess! A full hour sitting in the parking lot, waiting for Lakeshore to clear out for while every manner of low life tried… and usually succeeded… to push into the line. Then another hour to get from downtown to the other side of Oakville through all the construction. It was 2am before we got home, just a bit later than I like to stay up.

Ah well, it was a good father, son, and grandfather outing, and Alex really did love it.
