(also) Toronto Botanical Garden This is a combination park - garden area. There's a teaching garden with labelled plants and lovely walking trails to enjoy, and also a large park area that's perfect for picnics. A gift shop near the parking lot also has lovely things to buy. Toronto Botanical Garden and Edwards Garden are separate entities though on the same site. Located at the corner of Lawrence Ave and Leslie St, there's a large parking lot off of Lawrence. This place is right around where I work and I sometimes go here for walks on my lunch break. Take either the Lawrence E or Leslie bus to get here.

Get out of the city and go snowmobiling. This is one of my favourite winter pasttimes. I'm the one on the machine and that's my sister beside me. Note the family resemblance :-)

Skiing!! If you're here in the wintertime, take the opportunity to go skiing. This pic is taken at Blue Mountain, a few hours drive north of Toronto near Collingwood. Okay, it's not like skiing the Alps or the Rockies, but it's fun just the same. Just remember to dress warmly, it was -20 Celcius the day this pic was taken.

In Toronto's east end there is a gorgeous area known as Rouge Valley. It's the perfect place to go hiking for the day, especially in autumn when the leaves have all changed colours. Hiking trails abound and you can do the Rouge Valley Trail which starts near the Toronto Zoo, is 10km long and ends at Lake Ontario. Rouge Park is actually the largest urban area park in North America. It's a popular spot on sunny days and hard to believe it's so close to the urban areas. Dogs must be leashed at all times in this park.
