Doors Open Day 1

cat and I in canada life building

Cat, Mehrdad and I went touring around the city today exploring buildings usually closed to the public, thanks to the goodness of Doors Open. Lots of pretty stuff, and more tomorrow! Tragically, my pictures from the 64th floor of Toronto Dominion Centre are mostly obscured by smog and reflections off the thick glass. Beautiful view though, you can see all of the Toronto islands from up there!

Yay, I'm glad you guys had such a great time! Looks like you took a very similar path to ours last year -- except the MaRS building wasn't open then. You'll have to tell me what it's like because I'm doubting we'll make it there tomorrow. We still have no idea where we're headed, but do know we're going to the chocolate factory (my choice) ;)

Today we wandered all about The Beach going to Yard Sale for the Cure sales... I am now 10 books and 4 board games richer, yay :) Got a brand new Cranium (worth $50) for $5! Yard sales rock!
