We ended up taking a ton of amazing pictures and stood on glass! We were wearing skirts so everyone could see up them, or could they? We were so far up that we could barely see the cars!
Aren't views from the CN Tower amazing?
Here is our feet standing on the glass.
From the CN Tower, we explored on foot to the Royal Ontario Museum, or I think that was what it was called, and realized well into our walk that it was a lot longer than we though it was. During the walk, we went through China Town, and a market along the way. Halfway there, we found a very cool restaurant, I believe called The Red Door. However, the name wasn't written any where other than the menu. The place looked small and homey with the patio open all the way and the indoors and outdoor seemed to flow together. The walls had interesting artwork and bookshelves all over the place and the chairs looked vintage.
I think this was my favorite restaurant out of the whole trip and I am heartbroken because I have no idea how to get back there. We had just stumbled upon it, and the food was fabulous.
When we finally got to the Museum, we were so hot from the weather that we couldn't wait to get inside. And what did we find? Bollywood and Dinosaurs! Yay! I absolutely love dinosaurs! My favorite movie and book is Jurassic Park so go figure.
And here is our faces from seeing the T-Rex!
By the time we left the museum, it was dinner time. So where did we go? To the Distillery District where the old part of Toronto is.
The cobble stones made me stumble quite a bit and the artwork inside was quite modern, but the old time charm was still there.
It was probably because cars can't drive through the streets or that the street lamps were candlelit as well.
We ended up eating at Mill Street Brewery and Pub. It was amazing food and the local beer was great too! Yes, I can drink in Toronto, last I remembered I was almost twenty, and the drinking age is nineteen. After dinner, Lissy and I decided to go to this restaurant that was voted best patio in Toronto (which was next door to Mill Street, and that so happened to be the best local beer or something in Toronto) to have dessert!
It was quite lovely and we enjoyed our secluded space.
Both the dessert and the atmosphere were amazing! Both Lissy and I agreed that if we could live in the Distillery District, we would in a minute. I have found that even though I am not a big city girl, Toronto has made me want to be one. I have officially fallen in love with Toronto.
