Hot Hot Hot in Toronto!

Mr B and I headed for Toronto, we were again staying with some locals which added a bit of colour to our trip. They gave us a whistle stop tour of toronto in the evening and the next day we decided to visit the CN tower and the Royal Ontario Museum. The CN tower was great, you ascend in a glass elevator giving you a great view (def. not one for vertigo sufferers)! Once at the top you can have a look out on the observation deck and stand on the glass floor if you dare. Mr Button elbowed his way in there and lay himself prostrate, nose pressed to the glass, such exhibitionism drawing gasps from nearby tourists.
Next we hit the shops, Mr B was in his element hurling clothes at unsuspecting shop assistants while I was quite happy to browse and window shop.

Next on the list was the Royal Ontario Museum, a splendid piece of old meets new architecture which was quite beautiful on the inside. We didn’t have time to see everything but the exhibitions we did see were wonderfully put together with plenty of interactive elements such as touch screens, drawers to open and peer at and microscopes for taking a closer look. Today we left Toronto on the hottest day ever in it’s history (it is soooooooo hot), thank goodness for air conditioning!
