Intro

I travel quite a bit.  In the last year alone, I was in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Los Angeles, a quick vacay in Cabo, Quebec City and now New York where I'll get a chance to see a bit of East Coast.  Facebook has become insufficient in keeping records of my travels so I decided to start a travel blog.

MLK Weekend in Tdot

I did a drive to Toronto over MLK weekend cuz I actually missed it.  I was there over the summer for work but missed a few landmarks while I was there.

 It was an 8hr drive from White Plains, New York to Toronto.  Wasn't a bad drive either, getting to drive by Niagara Falls.  Drove after work around 7pm and got there 3am.  Got up around noon for brunch.  And got tickets to Muse for evening festivities. 

I booked a condo by the Gardiner Hwy in Downtown Toronto (the Ice Condos) 

for $80 per night.  I thought it was a steal.

 View from the condo.  I was on a mission to see the CN Tower 

which is why I got a place right next to it.

  

I had lunch at the Tower thanks to my bestie who made 

reservations at the restaurant 360 at the top of the tower 

for Sunday morning.  These are the views from the top.  

Just breathtaking.

 

 

 

 This is Toronto Island.  There were a few 

visits to there over the summer...

 

Two of my best friends are originally from here.

 

The food was surprisingly good. 

Canadian Bangers and Mash & Niagara Baco Noir Risotto

 Hot Smoked BC Sockeye Salmon Appy and Dark Chocolate Lava Cake

University of Toronto - St. George Campus

Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library

This the Royal Ontario Museum's exterior.

 The museum had a special photography exhibition that I totally got caught up in.

It's called Natural History Museum's 

Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition Exhibition

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

The drive back took 10hrs due to a snow storm throughout 

northern part of New York State.  But overall an excellent trip.
