I had nothing planned the whole weekend so when I saw people tweeting about the launch of the new Toyota Vios at the NBC Tent, I hit up someone part of the event and asked her to include my name on the guest list (Thank you. You know who you are!). I have never been to a car launch before so I thought it would be cool to check it out. Plus I was hoping to see my son's godfather and say what up. (He owns a few Toyota dealerships in  the country.)

Shout outs to all the lovely people I saw. Now it's time for some photos + a video. It's Toyota, not Toy Yoda! #startthefun

It doesn't look it but the wait time here is always at least 15 minutes. (Tip: They can serve the food in your car.)
