When we first arrived in Canada we thought we'd be singing the YMCA song every time we went to the gym.  We even did a few trial classes and while the facilities were ok and the indoor running track a novelty, it was a bit of a drive and a bit shabby.  

Village People lego style!

Luckily we were put onto a very sharp looking gym just around the corner.  On top of all the "normal" gym stuff, this place has some really great extras - as well as TV and radio on the workout equipment there's also the Internet  (not sure how you'd surf the net while running).  If working out is really a drag they have a theatre room filled with treadmills, bikes and elipticals so you can watch movies in the dark while you work up a sweat!  I think we'll be sticking to group classes.

The creche seems great and is open all day, everyday which is really convenient with a breast fed baby who naps a lot.  You can also leave the kids in there while you do the shopping!  So Fanta Pants and I plan to zumba, yoga, spin and bootcamp our way back to health and fitness...
