O Canada - Day Six - Centre Island

After visiting the Ontario Science Centre we headed back to downtown Toronto. Our plan was to spend the rest of the day visiting Centre Island. I found this part of our trip to be a nice bargain. An $8 parking fee (for the day and evening) plus a $7 per adult ferry ride bought a really nice leg of the trip.

Due to it being the last weekend of the summer (Labour Day weekend) everyone that didn't head up north for the holiday seemed to be making their way out to the Toronto Islands. There was quite a crowd of people waiting to get on the ferry. 30 minutes of waiting and Leah pointed out how nice everyone was. No arguing, no pushing or shoving. Very different from what we are used to back home.

Finally we made our way onto the ferry and short, nice ride brought us to Centre Island. Leah went with Matt & Louis up on upper deck while I stayed with Gabriel down below.

 

Farewell to Summer

In celebration of our last weekend before school starts and the unofficial end to summer we went on our second visit in two days to Tobay Beach.

This time we stuck to the sprinkler park. Leah had a great time running through the park.
