First Day in Toronto

Some of you know that the first few posts are already up for Toronto! So yes, this is a late post, but it’s the long weekend and I was reminiscing back on the warm summer months~

We arrived by train right to the heart of Toronto, and it was so exciting to see the big tall buildings everywhere, the infrastructure, the people… it was like being in Japan again for me!

We loved how the layout of the buildings were put together, and everything was just something begging to be photographed. Love the city hall!

I’m kind of glad we don’t have late night food stands outside back at home, or else I’d be a balloon by now. (Yes, I eventually gave in one night in Toronto).

I’m a sucker for flowers. The other day I bought some to give to a friend’s grand opening event and my heart just stopped because $50 still got me a small vase of mixed arrangements.

First stop to eat before checking in was light cafe. Definitely went up on my favourites list and if I had the chance to go again I would! A post will be made soon on this place!

I was sad that I lost my lens cap for my camera before we went down to the subway to head to Casa Loma.

As much as we tried to cram as much into our itinerary we were just a bit short time in getting to go into casa loma :(. There was a wedding going on and was slightly tempted to crash it haha.

We headed to the museum next and tried to be as strategic as possible (basically powerwalking through areas that were lower priority on the list to see).

We met up with an old time friend, Joyce! Had some good ramen that was worth the wait!

Like all tourists, we needed to end the night in taking pictures in front of the sign! And yes, like all tourists we waited for certain colours to appear to take the shot.

We lined up for Uncle Tetsu’s and went around trying to find a place to eat it (it was super late). We thought maybe a bar would let us. We went to Drake One Fifty! And in case you’re wondering, no, they didn’t let outside food :(.

Quickread is done! Next post would be my attempt at making a Japanese Cheesecake similar to Uncle Tetsu’s! 

Let me know if you had questions about our itinerary! We jam packed everything in two and a half days!

-Weeeee
