P i c t u r e s . . . I initially planned to get into the Ripley's Aquarium and CN Tower. When I saw the cost was beyond my pay grade, I changed my plans 6 Likes 2 Shares

Borgamaame:Nah not really conversant..Had maybe one or two trips on the CN end. Not accross borders though. For the cars , yeah true . You don't want car issues on such a long trip. Better to be safe and go with something with good ratings and reviews. Glad you enjoyed your trip. Looking forward to making a trip probably in August towards the Windsor-Detroit end God willing... As for CN towers. Lol those prices are kinda pricey. $80 to see a tower and aquarium ? Nah thank you. I would pass. Not a fan of heights so which makes such fees much uninteresting. 9 Likes 1 Share |

onegig: Lol! Those prices be over the roof. I don't mind heights. Not scared of them. If I happen to find myself near the CN tower in the near future, I don't mind doing a trip up there. I think the $80 plus cost covers lunch at the restaurant up there. I don't think it is exactly bad (again, one has to save up for it unless you want to walk back home) I hope you achieve your windsor-detroit trip sooner than later. I didn't like there was no rest area on that route. It took us about 2hrs or a little more or less to get to one. Pretty annoying! But the Windsor Riverfront is so beautiful! Overlooking Detroit from Windsor is a lovely experience! And yeah, about the cars, I was avoiding stories that touch the heart I'll look into Turo next time. Stay safe, stay warm 7 Likes 1 Share |

Hello fam, My sincere apologies for the late update. Been catching up some stuff lately but I won't miss a day going forward till I'm done. The Presto card is how I paid for the subway. You can add money to it. You know what I found interesting? When you tap on the card readers to get on the metro (after recharging your card), for the next two hours, you do not need to pay extra for the subway. The other picture is what it looks like in one of the stations. 8 Likes 1 Share

From the CN Tour/Ripley's Museum, I decided to go to Nathan Philips Square (where you find the popular Toronto sign). It is usually better at night. It was a 20min walk. But before getting to the Square, I did a quick stop at the Toronto City Hall. It's a historic site as well. Pictures... 7 Likes 1 Share

Wikipedia says the following about Old City Hall, Toronto: "The Old City Hall is a Romanesque-style civic building and court house in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was the home of the Toronto City Council from 1899 to 1966 and remains one of the city's most prominent structures". More pictures...

See sweet sweet structures na chai.. OP I took note of a place you said many places in Ontario looks like Downtown (which is likened to the Maitaima and Banana Island in Nigeria) unlike the US. Please are you saying, take away the US hype, that Canada is better structured with more beautiful places than USA? 11 Likes 2 Shares |

When you say the USA is miles apart from Canada what do you mean? Asides economy which USA is obviously heads and shoulders above any country on earth, there's little to no difference between the US and Canada. Infrastructure, education etc.. I see the level of development and I don't see much difference.. If you are blindfolded and dropped suddenly in a street in Canada and your blindfold taken off, with someone telling you where you are is USA, I don't think you would doubt or argue. Same too if you are taken to Canada and you are told it is USA, you won't argue. This is cos both countries are similar so I don't know what you mean by miles apart.. Maybe in terms of military might and economy which wasn't what I was talking about in my previous comment ednut1: 17 Likes 1 Share |
