  • Blue Jays Game!

    In the evening, I took a walk to the Rogers Centre to watch Toronto Blue Jays against Philadelphia Phillies. Great atmosphere (and beer). After the game I walked down to the Harbour Front, past old train carriages an on to Lake Ontario. Then I got a Beaver Tail - apparently a Canadian must-have.Read more
