an Australian A2ker will be in Toronto in two months (literally)

I know what I'd take her to see/hear/do ... but I live here and I'm biased.

Have you ever visited Toronto as a tourist? what are the things you'd recommend? what do you regret wasting time on?

are you in/near Toronto? want to join us for lunch or an adult beverage the first weekend in May? lemme know Smile

Kensington Market is a great neighbourhood - many visiting A2kers/Abuzzers have been there

@McGentrix,

thanks for adding some ideas McG!

I always forget that the PATH isn't normal for the rest of the world - and it is pretty cool - my mother always loved checking it out

and really - anytime you're here - I'd love to have a tea/coffee/juice with you/your family

I'll be in the VIP line, one of the out of place old white men with a beard and too much time on his hands.

3rd and most likely last time I see this band. But what a show they do!

I see you there all the time - you're either a VIP or security telling the kids they can't bring THAT in

I would love a great steak and a cold beer and some tunes maybe. I'll save my pennies. I'll take a stand up hot dog and a warm coke too if I have too Smile
