Toronto Wrap Up

, ,

This post is a continuation of the Blue Mountain wrap-up.

As previously mentioned, I booked a quick trip to Canada last month and ended up staying in Blue Mountain and Toronto, Ontario. Having never been to either destinations I must admit it are definitely 2 places I will return to one day. In this part I will list up some of things in Toronto.
