CN Tower

Having come more or less straight form London UK, it's been inevitable for me to compare the two cities, which i've come to realise is a bit unfair on Toronto. Toronto is a fairly new city and comparing it with one of the oldest cities in the world wouldn't do it any justice at all.

My experiences so far have been just great, i'm particularly impressed with the people of Toronto. They are so friendly it's amazing. I mean in London, it was normal practice to pass your neighbour in the corridor like yu didn't see him, a smile at the most was all you would exchange amid the constant rush to get somewhere. Here in Toronto, they actually stop and ask you how was your day...and they mean it. It's not just neighbours, people on the street, in restaurants, in clothing stores...it's just great. Tha pace of the city is also much slower than what you would experience in London...on a Sunday afternoon....hehe. Even the rush hour is slow....it's amazing and so refreshing.

So i've taken my first steps towards admiring Toronto for the beautiful city it is... i went to the CN Tower which, at a height of 553.33m (1,815 ft., 5 inches), it is Canada’s National Tower, the World's Tallest Building, an important telecommunications hub, and the centre of tourism in Toronto. The view was spectacular

The security system was quite impressive, you get hit with a jet of air from head to toe...thats it.....mambo ya kupapasana hamna...and the air is harmless...i mean how does that work...??









The Glass Floor


Inside Rogers Centre..this is just about as close as i'd ever get to a baseball field...this picture was taken through the glass floor




Do u feel dizzy or is it just me..?!



Lying down on the Glass floor...i'm smiling on the outside....screaming in the inside...


People standing on the glass floor


This building looked great ...glittering in the sun like a bar of gold


On my way out i see this beautiful garden....then i hear some relaxing...tranquil music...so i look and i see BOSS speakers amongst the flowers...yes i checked it twice....BOSS speakers.and not one....i counted 6 speakers scattered all over the place....the flowers were listening to some music.....i'm gonna shut up now
