"Just a little VT meeting" Toronto by Dabs

Toronto Travel Guide: 4,278 reviews and 8,803 photos

What started out, according to the organizers, as a little VT meeting of 10-15 people, mushroomed into a huge VT meeting of 50-60 people from all over Canada and the US plus a couple of people from London. This was my first big VT meeting and it was a lot of fun seeing old friends, meeting new ones and visiting Toronto, a special thanks to Jane and Laura for organizing the dinners and walking tours, excellent job ladies!!!!

Last visit to Toronto: Sep 2005

Yep!! I snagged it! $605 ($350 + taxes) return to Frankfurt on the fabled "AirTransat" which, according to you, doesn't exist. Now if you really think about it... You've seen me in Europe before so I must be getting there somehow. >:D

Chinese food AND Greek food...Toronto is foodie heaven! :-) Niagara Falls looked amazing with the snow and ice, but the "Maid of the Mist" boats weren't running...so I'll have to return there one summer!

Looks like this was a great VT time, regardless of the weather. Your restaurant tips are excellent. I also always enjoy your hotel writeups...detailed and helpful. I smiled a good deal while viewing the travelogues.

Great pages on Toronto. I did not get to see the music garden. What a cool thing that is it reminded me of the Odette Sculpture Garden/River walk in WIndsor, Ontario
