Being A Tourist In Our Own City

 Today we decided to be tourists in our own city.  We got a TTC day pass which allowed two adults to get on and off of the transit all day as many times as we wanted to.  Our first stop was to the Union Station Outdoor Market for lunch.  They had a lot of little booths set up with all different kinds of food to buy.  I had the mushroom tacos.  They were good.  Neal had a hotdog and fries.

 Then we took a very long ride to a new place called Corktown Commons.  This park was set up for the Pan Am Games and then turned over to the city as a beautiful park.

We found some of these cool works of art along the way.  This one is all different kinds of light standards.

 Here's a water feature that had dancing water and kids and pets were having a great time.

 We finally made it to the Corktown Common.  It seemed that nobody has heard of this place and kept sending us in the wrong direction.

Below is the history of why it's called Corktown Common.

 Here I am just hanging around acting like a little kid at heart.

 Neal and I then hopped back on the TTC to City Hall to find the Toronto sign.  Here it is folks the Toronto sign.  It lights up at night too.  In the winter the water is frozen over and people can ice skate here too.

They had an arts and crafts show and sale here as well.  Our last stop was to the Eaton's Centre for some dinner.  They have the best food court there.  If you can't find something you want to eat there, then you're not all that hungry.

Well, that was today's adventure!  Stay tuned in the coming week for more.
