After training today we decided to walk from our hotel to the CN Tower. Along the way we stopped at Eastside Marios for cheap Italian food. It was alright. On our way out of the restaurant we saw a mouse scurrying across the floor.

We bought our tickets ($21 b/ea.) nearby at a visitors bureau and made our way to the base of the CN Tower. After the quick ride up the elevator to observation deck, we made our way down a flight of stairs to the glass floor level. It wasn't all glass flooring, just a small area. It took me about 10 minutes of watching other people walking on the glass before I was able to do it myself.





After the trip to the tower we took a taxi to the Royal Ontario Museum. For $18 We saw the Italian Design exhibit, an Egyptian and Greek exhibit, an amazing midieval exhibit with suits of armour on display, and a japanese exhibit full of statues. All were very impressive and we both enjoyed seeing this museum much more than the Art Gallery of Ontario we visited last night.



After the ROM, we came back to our hotel to relax for a few minutes. The hotel staff was helpful in not only suggesting Trevor Kitchen & Bar, but they set up a reservation for us. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was energetic with all the yuppies getting loud as they consumed more drink. It was fun.

We walked around a few minutes and decided to grab a hot beverage at Second Cup, a coffee shop not far from the restaurant on Wellington.
