Doing the Tourist Thing – Part 2
….after Greek Town
The second place that my sister, brother-in-law and I went to see was Harbour Front. As you can probably guess from the name it is on the waterfront, close to the centre of the city. This is where you catch the ferry to go to the Toronto Islands and Porter Airport (also accessible via a tunnel).
When you look north of the harbour all you can see are high rises. The dome where many of our sporting events take place is almost invisible because of the numerous condo towers that surround it. Between buildings you can still get a glimpse of the CN Tower which is no longer the tallest man-made structure in the world. It held the record for over three decades, from 1975 to 2007.

Thursday Doors – From the Car Window
….thanks to Norm for hosting Thursday Doors
On the way to the cottage last weekend there were sections of the road where I was literally at a standstill because of construction. Next to me I had my camera and every time I had to stop I rolled down the window and took photos of the countryside and small towns that I passed through.
This is on my way north from Toronto to Barrie along Hwy 27.
Doors From the Island
….thanks to Norm who hosts Thursday Doors
Norm is on holiday and hasn’t posted this week but maybe you’d like to check out Jean’s Doors.
The following doors are ones that I pass every time I’m up at the cottage. Enjoy!

A Roof With Memories – June Square
…thanks to Becky B for hosting June Squares – roofs
Today is the last day of June and also the last day for June Squares. In my travels along Bloor Street last week I passed an old building that holds many memories for me. It is UTS where I completed my teacher training before embarking on my 41 year career (35 years of actual teaching with 6 years off looking after my children). Not all the memories are positive but I did learn at great deal within these old walls.
Another Downtown Church – June Squares
…thanks to Becky B for hosting June squares – roofs
This is Trinity Bellwood United Church on Bloor St. in Toronto. I’ve lived in this city most of my life and this year was the first time I set foot in the place. Actually I’ve been there three times for three different concerts. A wonderful venue for music.
