Yesterday was my second and last day in Toronto. It was jam packed full of activity. In the morning Catrine, the girl I met at the hostel, and I after breakfast, went to the CN Tower, going the extra hundred some feet up to to the sky pod. What a beautiful view of an enormous city and being early, there wasn't too much smog yet! After our tower adventures, we took a tour on this Hippo bus that drove right into Lake Ontario and became a boat! Very fun. It was a great way to see a lot of the city that I wouldn't have by just walking around. It even helped me decide which attractions I would like to walk to... for example, THE WORLDS BIGGEST BOOKSTORE!!!! 26 kms of book shelves! Not all in a long row mind you! But I have skipped ahead here... After the Hippo tour, Catrine and I had lunch and made our way to the Riverdale Farmer's Market where we parted ways. She was moving on to work at a farm in Niagara Falls catching a ride from the Farmer's Market. I then made my way to that fabulous bookstore! Walking back to the hostel I was stopped by two fellas holding signs reading, "Because we are girls". Gotta love a big city. My next and last adventure in Toronto was a Blue Jays game. What a yawn! It would have been much more fun with someone, and not beside the large fella overflowing into my seat. I left just before the game was over when it was all tied up! I am obviously not a hardcore baseball fan! But it was a great Toronto experience regardless! I did listen to the radio to find out that the Jays won in the end 6-5. A happy ending.
Which brings us today where I find myself in Hamilton meeting up with Stefani a friend from College!
