There are 6.5million trees in Toronto, give or take a few. This provides a soothing green canopy in the heat of summer. If only more cities were like this, especially in Japan. In Kyoto for example trees are immediatelly cut down to stumps or totally removed as soon as they begin to provide any shade - they drop too many leaves and interfere with construction. Toronto felt like a green heaven by contrast!

The summer in Toronto was hot. Now I usually don't eat ice-cream, maybe twice a year, however when in Rome... I consumed so much ice-cream while wandering the streets. It was fun to pop into corner stores and go through their selection. My favorite hands down was the Orange Creamsicle! Vanilla ice-cream on the inside, orange ice on the outside. mmm...

Carmanah Mon Jul 16, 2007 22:39 UTC Very cool outlook on Toronto - not your typical "I went to the CN Tower, Canadians say eh" travelogue - but I got a real sense of how every day folk live/see Toronto. I agree - staying with friends definitely has its perks for that! | devmicha Mon Aug 15, 2005 02:41 UTC I am glad you had sunch an amazing time!! Until next time... | husain Sat Aug 13, 2005 19:30 UTC looks like you had a blast- even though it wasnt a trigger-happy camera vacation;) | keida84 Sat Aug 13, 2005 15:41 UTC Hi, just surfing through and saw your Toronto tip, I will be back to read them, they look very good so "Bookmark" ;-) Kat |
