Toronto, Ontario

Up early to visit Toronto.
Traveling by the airport we saw this hotel.

Your just never know when you may see a quilt block!

I love it.  Fill in the blank.  What a great way to recycle signs!

When do you see phone booths anymore?

What an interesting sculpture.

The CN building.  It sure looks a long way up there.

Heights are not my thing.  It was an open elevator.  You know one of those that has a glass front, and you can watch the whole time you are going up to the observation deck.  I stand with my back to the doors, holding onto Andy's hand.
I needed to at least prove that I made it.  That is Toronto out there,

Ron and Andy.
They were enjoying the view so much.  Even went down one floor to stand on the glass floor.  They have an area, not very big, but it is glass that you can stand, sit, or lay on, and look down to the ground.  Definitely not on my list.  They were just proud I got up there! 

The view is spectacular.  You can see so far.  I think this was the area you could see North.

Looking out toward Lake Ontario.

Another view looking out over the city.

Some of the statistics of the tower. 

The Canadian Mounted Bear

One of the adventures you can have on the CN Tower is to lean out the top tier.  The people were in harnesses, and well prepared to do this.  See the couple of red specks over the side.

They were PEOPLE!!!  Not on your life

Needed too finish off that experience with a beer from the Steam Whistle Brewery across the street. Probably why it is right there!

Frances, in the center was our tour guide through the micro brewery.  What a ham.  He was fun to listen to.

Too when was the last time you saw a pay phone on the way??

On our way back to the hotel, we drove through Chinatown.  What an interesting place.  

You just never know what you may see on a patio!
We had such a great day.  We need to come back another time and spend more days sightseeing.
Maybe next year on our way to the reunions.
Toronto was a beautiful city and there is a lot more to see.
Wait to see what we did the next day.
