What a fabulous area of the world. Jay and I had such a wonderful time going to the CN Tower. Boy, looking around from the very top at all the city and being able to look across to the US was just fascinating. Have you ever stood on a glass floor at 1,400+ ft? Wow, that is a frightening experience....., but we did it.
Casa Loma is spectacular. It is a castle in the middle of Toronto. It was built with steam pipes to warm the room, an elevator - Otis 1 since it was the first in Canada, extraordinary gardens, which we saw covered with snow, exquisite bedrooms and guestrooms, enormous dinning room and library. Amazing!
ROM the Royal Ontario Museum is magnificent! It houses displays from all over the world. The featured displays were: Diamonds, Dinosaurs, Ukraine - Ancient Civilization, Egypt, Canada and it's native people and many other countries.
St. Lawrence Market with stores representing countries from around the world. We ate at the Portuguese restaurant.
Hockey Hall of Fame - I'm sorry that I cannot name the players who were celebrated, but we did get to take a picture with the Stanley Cup. It is awesome!
Well, Niagara Falls is beautiful. With the snow and ice caps it is breathtaking. We are so thankful that we were able to go see this natural beauty. We got to sit in a restaurant looking straight into the Horseshoe Falls. Magnificent! (I must confess that for who has seen the Foz do Iguaçu, there is no comparison. Sorry America and Canada!)
We are so thankful for the opportunity to get to know yet another country!
