Today i went to the CNE with my family. We grabbed breakfast at mc d's (i wanted tims ). We got on the subway went down to union station and hopped on the TTC train things.
We got to the CNE, and first thing we did was go to the animal house, for some strange reason. We went through there looking at the various animals, and saw a presentation on how they milk cows. The best part was the cow in the front row randomly taking a crap in the middle of the presentation.

Then we went through the arts&craft building, followed by the two giant convention rooms filled with various vendors. Didn't end up buying anything, but i was close to buying one of those soviet russia army hats.
By this time i was pretty hungry, so we went to the foo court for dinner. I had 3 slices of pizza from pizza nova. Good stuff.
Afterwards, we went to the midway. I went on the crazy mouse roller coaster thing (not that crazy), as well as the "Niagara Falls" log flume ride twice.
Finished our evening off with browsing the game booths. For the Nth time, they couldn't guess my weight (this guy was like 15-20 lbs off). Won A new stuffed chew toy for my dog :3.

We headed back to the hotel on the TTC trains then the subway.

A few things that stood out today:
1. I saw 30-40 people that looked exactly like my friend from school.
2. I heard the song "Beat It" by Micheal Jackson at least 5 times during my walk through the midway. To top it off, we heard Billie Jean at a game booth that mad MJ stuffed toys as possible prizes.
3. Niagara Falls Flume ride. It was so good, i had to go another time. My excuse was "I wasn't wet enough from the ride".

Part three coming tommorow night.

That's what she said.

I plan on going some day as well, but I'm sure it won't be for a while. Good to know you had a fun time

I went to the CNE last year, I remember seeing a hyponotist doing a show there. Was one of the most entertaining things I've ever seen.

Rest of it was pretty boring.. I think I'm a little too old. The rides were all weak, and I'm a student so dropping a hundred dollars on game booths wasn't too appealing.
