return to Ukraine Canada Corps exchange, and other travels

PS21 - Toronto II

If I recall correctly, I left my things in a locker near the bus station and went for a walk around the downtown and waterfront. It happened to be election day, but the polls wouldn't be closing nor tv coverage (the more important thing, since I voted by mail) beginning for some hours yet...

Going up York Street:


Some of Toronto's tallest buildings, including First Canadian Place (the building with the red dot at the top), Canada's tallest skyscraper.


The Air Canada Centre, home of the Maple Leafs, Raptors, and Rock.


CN Tower, with SkyDome Rogers Centre, home of the Blue Jays and Argonauts.


York Street, going under the massive elevated train yard.


And, we're back at the Royal York! Full circle!

Next stop: Home, for my 24th birthday
