O CANADA!

Yesterday, we drove up to Toronto, Ontario. When we were coming through customs at Port Huron, we were "lucky" enough to be chosen to undergo a random vehicle and personal belongings inspection. Jonathan has training up here this week with Paradigm Loudspeakers. After we dropped Jonathan off at his dinner meeting, the boys and I headed for the closest McDonald's with a Playplace. They loved running and jumping and stretching their legs after the long car ride.
No Spanish up here...just French! This morning, I took the boys to Lakeside Promenade Park in Mississauga. It was a free park with sand, playground and a splash park. They had a blast playing for over 2 hours.








Tonight, Daddy took us to downtown Toronto for the evening. After parking the car, we ate some loaded hot dogs from a street vendor.
Next we went to the top of the Canadian National Tower.

Up on the observation deck.

After reaching the top, we realized that for a few dollars more we could eat at 360, the restaurant at the top of the CN Tower. The dining floor rotated slowly and took 72 minutes to perform a complete rotation.



The Boston Red Socks were in town playing the Toronto Blue Jays.
