Well, im in toronto for a 5 day vacation.
We drove up here on friday, went out to the pickle barell for dinner. I had the spaghetti, it was good.
Afterwards we visited the worlds largest bookstore. I was thinking about buying one of the various starcraft books there, but insteaf i decided on "The heroinb diaries: A year in the life of a shattered rock star", which is Nikki Sixx's diary from xmas 1986 to 87, when he was addicted hard to heroin.
We then went back to the hotel and chilled until i fell asleep.
Woke up this morning around 10:30. Went to get breakfast (more like lunch) at Fran's diner. Had chicken fingers for lunch. Walked around for a while, popping into random stores that looked interesting.
After going back to the hotel to relax a little, we decided to go to the old spaghetti factory for dinner. The wait was over an hour long, so we went and watched some austrailian contortionist fit herself into a 16" cube.
When we finally got a table, the food and service was great. I had spaghetti with meat sauce (no meatballs this time, dont want to repeat dinners).
We then walked through buskerfest, seeing a few interesting things here and there.
Then we came back to the hotel, and now im writing this blog.

Where are you from?

Go to the CNE, it's on right now and there is a lot to see!
And if you can stay long enough there's TIFF as well.

I gotta say, there a lot to do in Toronto during the summer, there is like a festival or some kinda major event going on every other week.

Where are you from? There are actually not that many interesting things to do in Toronto, why did you pick it as your vacation destination?

Don't know why peple here are ripping on Toronto, I stayed there for 4 days and I loved it (and yes, I live in canada). The falls are awesome, as are a lot of the restaurants.

Hey if you are in Toronto and interested in glider flying, pm me
I did my summer job there and its a nice little place in orangeville people don't know about

Great place to experience your first 'real' flying, not that commercial small window stuff
