Just finished our trip here. Had an absolute blast. Did pretty much everything OP did but I think that’s about par for the tourist experience. Would also recommended it as a weekend trip.

Flew into Toronto and here is something that blew my my mind and has etched an indelible memory of fondness for the city: 15 minutes after leaving the airport in our Uber, my wife realized she left her purse at the airport. We panicked, the driver said no worries and assured us the city was safe..I called her phone (left in the bag) and someone picked up and said she was already en route to dropping it off at information desk, so we returned to collect. Very fortunate for the good turnaround and not so sure it would have happened in many other cities, especially given it is a fairly recognizable limited edition Gucci bag.

Highly recommend Niagra Falls. Inniskillan ice wine is a nice treat. Looking forward to another visit to Toronto. Obligatory wrist shot.

I'm so happy to hear you went and had a great time! Also glad the right person found the bag and turned it in. My hope is anyone travelling anywhere would be able to put themselves in the shoes of the individual who forgot or misplaced something. Very grateful for this and it also looks like you stayed at Fallsview? Beautiful watch by the way!

Thanks. Yes we stayed at embassy Fallsview and it was awesome. Enjoyed the lights and fireworks every night. Highly recommend it, especially if traveling kids.

I’ll message you before we come back to Toronto next time for more recommendations!

Was there Sunday. Awesome experience, very humbling as well. Mother Nature at work.

Very nice, I thought so! One thing I've never done was check it out at night. We did stay over night once but felt so tired after the drive and walking around most of the day that we didn't bother then.

Sounds good, I'll be happy to make some recommendations before your next visit!

This is fantastic! I'm so happy you made the visit and got to see this in person. It never fails to amaze me really and the sound you're able to hear from quite far away is a constant reminder of where you are.
