Day 23

Took a taxi to The Beaches a suburb on the lake and near where my sister lives. It's sort of a beach but no sand just gravel down to the lake side with life guards on duty. Apparently there are nasty under currents. There is a broadwalk along the lake that goes for miles. The main street is Queen St and it's a short walk from the lakeside. Its hip kind of street old buildings lots bars cafes arty shops with a tram line down the middle that runs into the CBD. You would think u are in Melbourne.

Spent a while exploring the area then headed back into the CBD to go and watch an NBL game at Rogers Stadium, the Toronto Blue Jays vs the Chicago White Soxs.

It was a 45,000 seat stadium with a retractable roof the crowd was near capacity. They started with the roof closed and they opened it about an hour into the game to reveal the CNN Tower, very special. First time i had ever been to a pro baseball game and being an ex softball ball player, Annie had to help me understand the rules. Food and booze were aplenty there and of course we had to have a huge hot dog with the lot. Unfortunately some of the mustard on Annies dog ended up on her new dress. The size of the dog made handling it difficult.

It was a good game with Toronto coming out on top and we loved the theatre of the show they put on. A short walk back to the hotel then nurse annie had to change the dressing on Mariah's finger and then shopping trip for some warm weather clothes for Annie going to be 33c tomorrowЧитать далее
