Day 24 - Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Day 24 – 2nd July 2005 -5:00 GMT

Got up and watched the Wimbledon’s women’s final before heading across the road for a full breakfast then went into old town Toronto, visited the St. Lawrence market and then the farmers market, then walked along Front Street. Decided we would get out the sun for a bit and saw War of the Worlds at the Paramount Cinema.
We went for food in the pub at 7pm. Then crossed the road to the CN Tower, the lady in the kiosk said the queue would be 90 mins but if we bought express tickets it would only take 30 mins, so we each bought an express tickets as it was now almost 8.30pm and we wanted to see the sunset over Toronto, after 2 hours of a very hot and frustrating queue we finally got to the top of the CN tower, which is the tallest free standing structure in the world at 553m, by now we had missed the sunset as it was after 10:30pm, the view was stunning, We walked over the glass floor where you can look straight down on the world below then we went all the way to the top of the skypod which at 447m high the highest observation deck in the world. We got down at midnight and headed back to our hotel.
