present all the way from Toronto!!!

Cousin Michelle (the one living in Gifu as an ALT now) gave us this amazing present! It is a mirror from The Tin Taj on Queen Street - not just any mirror, but one filled with various symbols and reminders of the journey before our marriage. This photo doesn't do it justice...please visit to see it in person sometime!!!

Thanks for the very personalized and thoughtful gift, Michelle! Ha ha, and all this time I thought you just needed all those details for the wedding speech! You wily fox, you! :)
