Toronto Tales
« on: June 04, 2007, 11:27:21 AM »
I dont know how many of you have been there but its well worth a visit. We did the whole tourist thing, even got bored for 2 hours watching the Baseball. In those 2 hours I think there may have been 6 balls hit in play. It was rivetting.

heres a clip from the game, its was very exciting, the Blue Jays won 7-2

Toronto is a very clean city, no rubish laid around anywhere, and they recycle everything, no single litter bins, they have one for each item, paper, glass, etc

The bums are very friendly, one gave me directions to the Museum without asking for anything ( I gave him a dollar and advised him not to buy shares in Euro Disney )

Also went to Niagra Falls, imagine Morecambe with a river.

We are, regrettably off there in July. So, to summarise:

11 degrees
Baseball ( cussing:)
No litter
Nice tramps

I can hardly wait for the 7 hour flight!

You might like to tell us your point of reference?

Compared with us they might seem the epitome of brilliance. sleep017

I honestly think you'll like it Nick. Make sure you take the boy to the Hockey Hall of Fame, there are some goalkeeping masks that will give him nightmares for months to come.. drumroll:
