A Packed Last Day

What a brilliant last day we have had.  After a great breakfast we headed for Toronto with a bit of concern that the funeral, Blue Jays game and Busker Fair could make the going difficult.  No problems at all, Carolynne breezed down the freeway straight to the car park and we were parked up and at the sightseeing bus in no time.  It was sunny so the top deck was popular but we got the last 4 spots and off we went

The guide told us that the clock was important and he would tell us about it in a minute so I took a photo.  He never did tell us about so here is the picture, perhaps someone at home can give me a clue as to why it is important??

I had to take pictures of the Art Gallery and the College of Art as they are the sort of buildings that an architect comes up with after one too many G&T's and then an engineer has to make possible and they are a CDMC's nightmare.  If you look closely on the second one there is a guy hanging from  rope cleaning the windows...

As we were restricted on the amount of time we had, we decided on two stops that we wanted to do on the bus.  The CN Tower was the first

we at last got a close up with a moose

A view from the top and another down through the glass floor

Back on the bus,

the other stop we wanted to do was the market.  We have been severely restricted with the amount of fresh food we have seen on our trip across Canada.  We are presuming that most of the people we have met in the "outback" catch their own meat and eat very little fruit or veg (no colourful food allowed).  The market was fantastic and I have inclulded a number of pictures just for Paul who went in search of fresh fruit often

The busker fair was on all around the market so the streets were full.  We came across this, which we thought was very apt

 we finished off our day with fish and chips from the market fish stall.  It was great

Thanks very much to Carolynne and Izzy for a great three days, we hope you have enjoyed it as much as we have.

I am writing this sitting in a bar in the airport with about 2 hours before we are due to leave.  Everything looks like it is on time with no problems except the fact that a woman has just walked past with a child in a buggy that can scream for NATO!!  He hasn't stopped now for about 10 minutes solid.  I hope he's not on our flight but she has walked down towards the gate we have to leave from.  Fingers crossed.

Thanks to everyone for being part of my adventure, I truly have had a great time.
