Day 9 in Toronto, Canada...

On Day 9 we headed up to Toronto, Canada.  We toured the city, went up in the tallest observation tower in the world (CN Tower), played on a neat bridge and had a good lunch.  We finished our day by heading back to Buffalo and eating at an amazing wings place called, Duffs.  It was by far the best wings I have EVER had, even better than Anchor Bar.  And we had dessert at our favorite custard place, Anderson's Custard.

 We could not get over how huge Toronto is, much larger than Atlanta.  There were buildings as far as you could see. 
This is a view of the financial district (all the big buildings to the right).
There was a glass floor in the tower that you could stand on and look down 113 stories.  The girls thought this was very fun and enjoyed walking on the small metal beams in between the glass.  When you walked on the metal beams it felt like you were walking a tight rope with nothing underneath you.  It really freaked me out and the girls thought it was very funny.
 Regan is dragging me out onto the glass window because I did not want to go.
 Reece and Riley decided to show me it was not scary by doing handstands while they looked straight down.

 This was a neat "wave bridge."  The girls LOVED this bridge and played about 30 minutes on it and then we had to come back later in the day to play on it again.  You could run up and down it and slide down on the wood sides.
Tony caught me trying to run up the slope.  It was very difficult, it is steeper than it looks in this photo.
 So, I caught Tony running down and he almost busted on his behind.
 The girls figured out the wood sidings were very smooth and slick.  They enjoyed sliding down them.

 The best wings ever are located in this hole in the wall restaurant!!!!
 Anderson's Custard - Yum!

It was a pretty night!
