With its checkerboard floors
Three days spent as follows. Drive to Toronto, have lunch in the Annex. In-laws to shoe museum as we buy a futon (our first piece of furniture!). To Greg's Ice Cream, where they were sadly out of roasted marshmallow. Walk to Honest Ed's and down Markham to Harbord, and then over to Ossington and our new neighbourhood. Check out the apartment, which is now empty and grow very very excited. Walk through Little Italy, have Ice Tea in Kensington, walk through Chinatown, get in a row over a Miffy pencil case and then go to my Aunt's for a lovely dinner. Day two- drive to Niagara Falls, see Falls and the Tour Behind the Falls and get very wet. Walk along the river a bit, and avoid the city. Drive the Niagara Parkway to Niagara-on-the-Lake. Have lunch there and shop around a bit. Drive back to Toronto and have dinner in Chinatown, buy Miffy pencil case. Walk across King's College Circle to Katie's gorgeous place for dessert. Day three- go to Centre Island, walk to Ward's Island and have a drink. Have a hotdog for lunch, followed by Smoothies, and then let them loose in the Eaton's Centre, while we sit on a couch in the housewares department in Sears and are bothered by no one. Dinner and then home.
