A very important Swimming Holes We Have Known PSA: Sunnyside Pool opens this weekend (and 9 other pools, too, but Sunnyside has my heart!)

I'm not sure how I overlooked my VERY favourite day in Toronto, the day I look forward to all year, especially in the darkest days of February, but I booked my first trip away from my kid and am going to miss it (WAAAAAH! I also overlooked Father's Day, whoops!) So please go on my behalf and revel in the sunshine of that beautiful deck, and lie on your back in the middle of the deep end and squint into the sun and welcome the glory that is summer swimming in the city.

(PS: bookmark this gem: a map of all the public pools in Toronto!)
