day 7

today's itinerary would be to travel up north to toronto. the guide first brought us to see the niagara fall in the day. it gets colder as we go northwards. blocks of snow can still be seen in the fall and the city. tony told us that it was still snowing in quebec. really looking forward to go there. kind of disappointed when he told us that we are unable to take the maid of the mist cruise because of the ice blocks. afterwhich, i paid 25usd for a set lunch steak at skylon rotating tower, overlooking the niagara fall from the top. went to the imax theatre to see the niagara documentary after lunch. embark on another 2hrs ride before we reach toronto. tour the financial district, city hall which has a nickname “Sky Eye”, ontario parliament building and toronto university. Visit the symbol of the city CN Tower* and take the high speed elevator to the observation deck and walk on the 'Glass Floor', which really feels like walking in the air. the pace of living over here is kinda slow and relax. shops closes at 5pm, people knocking off from work as early as 1630. i guess it is winter that makes people feel kind of lazy eh, but i like the pace. transferred to the outskirt of toronto and had a stay in radisson hotel. fitness center again. 4miles on the treadmill, 100 crunches and some doing of weights. the burgers kind of making me sick.
