There’s very little I regret about taking my 8 month trip in 2007, but I did miss the escape of two elephants into one of Toronto’s suburban streets:
“Police said no one was hurt, no property was damaged and that the two well-behaved animals spent their free time snacking on plants and trees as they wandered the quiet downtown streets.”
(NB: Canadian politeness extends even to the elephants, apparently.)
