CN Tower Toronto

We stayed with Dominic's cousin and went up the CN Tower in Toronto. The view was great and Bagpuss enjoyed crawling about on the glass floor! Dominic's cousin had a swimming pool so Dominic leapt straight in! I dipped my feet but it felt a bit chilly …

Vroeg op, op zoek naar een all you can eat buffet en dan naar de Niagara Falls, dat is de bedoeling althans. Dat ontbijt gaat nog goed, althans het was eigenlijk kwalitatief niet zo best maar daarna toen we naar buiten gingen leek het wel of de Niagara falls verplaatst waren, regen! Na een kort overleg hebben we de plannen gewijzigd en zijn naar …

Our first destination in Toronto was the Pacific Mall. I was nervous after we realized we needed some Canadian money and my card was rejected once again. Basically, whenever you don't have unrestricted access to your cash, it'll make you feel uncomfortable. Kristina would later feel this way too when her debit card was denied.

We had dim …

Up at 5.30 ready for our tour to Toronto and Niagara Falls. We needed to be at the bus stop by 6.45 which was a short walk down to Rene Levesque. There were 2 bus tours leaving and it was pretty hectic trying to get on the bus. Funny in hindsight as we all had allocated seats anyway! We found out our tour guide was called "William" and the bus …

My fourth city after yet another bus journey.

So yes, I'm up and out again on an early bus and arriving in Toronto just after lunch on a Sunday. Having worked out which museums etc are going to be closed and open I've decided to do the Hockey Hall of Fame first to see the Stanley Cup, then wander around the Quays on the edge of the lake …

Ok, if you could not guess already, we are hockey people. We love it. However, because the Leafs are on not playing while we are in town, we decided to attend a Raptors basketball game, scheduled for the Tuesday night against Charlotte Bobcats at the Air Canada Centre. It was our first basketball game, and we got cheap tickets via a Groupon deal. …

Der Anflug auf Toronto war erste Sahne: Strahlender Sonnenschein und eine wunderhuebsche Toronter Skyline mit dem grossen Ontariosee im Hintergrund begruessten mich im gar nicht so kalten Kanada. Zu Schade, dass ich die Kamera im 'Overheadbin' verlastet hatte. So bleiben nur die Erinnerung an diesen Anblick. Das muss halt reichen. Beim Aussteigen …

June 28, 2010 - Pirates 7, Blue Jays 6

The best of the 5 games that I've seen so far as 6 HRs were hit in the game and the game came down to the very end. It was the first game that I've been to so far where the visiting team won the game. As for the stadium, I can remember when it opened and it was considered an engineering marvel for it' …

Well, I came here on a rush because I didn't have much time remaining for my departure. When I spoke to Sarah (my host) on the phone, it had sound a very nice experience to take. She started a marketing company not far from now and she needed some interns to help her in her company. She bought a schoolhouse on september and she got lot work to do …

Hi everyone!

So 2 days ago (it seems like a week ago), we arrived safely in Toronto (via Montreal). We got here at about 5pm local time. Thankfully, before we got on to our connecting flight, we spoke to some native Canadians who advised us the best way to get to Downtown Toronto. So, when we landed, we headed for the shuttle, and took a …
