First trip to Toronto yesterday. Beautiful city, could quite easily move there. Found Kensington Market which is very much like Portabello Market and as for Chinatown, it goes on for miles! Maybe that why its the 3rd largest in the world. However you can beat the view along the Waterfront. We may have the River Thames but there is nothing quite like looking out across a crystal blue Great Lake. Can't wait for the weekend, when Heike and I can explore more!
In the evening, we all made the trip up to the local Casino near Orillia, which is owned by the native Indians. We were actually there to see a bit of good old American Rock...John Mellencamp! Remember 'Jack and Diane'? He in fact sang a lot of his new album, which had more of a country/bluegrass feel and so was more up my street.
We did let Auntie Jane loose in the Casino afterwards. A maze of tables and slot machines that dazzle the eyes! And the results were sweet...she won $265 at Poker! Its not for beginners though. Auntie Jane is an expert at the cards so don't believe the House gives away its hard-earned cash to just anybody!
