hey guys am going to canada at easter, to toronto and nigara falls. just wondering if anyone could recommend anything thats a 'must see' and whats the weather like at that time of year?! thanks! Jo
I have been to Toronto a few times and Eaton Centre is always fun! Yonge street (?) is also quite nice for shopping. The town hall is pretty cool, too. I also went out at nights and for dinner, but I don't remember where those places were and what they were called LOL Sorry....Hope to be over there soon again to check out more sights Julia
yeah i'll just repeat all said above, ive been to both and i loved it! i'd really like to live in canada its great! xxx
Yeah, same here Sara. I am currently applying for jobs there! I love Canada! You will meet so many great canadians, too. They are awesome people, always fun to hang out with and party! Julia
So funny to hear you guys talking about Canada that way! I've lived here my whole life and can't really see the appeal! Wow, I'm going to make a great cultural representative, hey? Seriously though, it is very pretty and I guess the people are friendly for the most part, I guess I just take it for granted! Chelsea
And she said so you ASS LOL ( I love how you can modify your message ). I have been shopping there 10 years ago so sorry if I didn't spell it correctly :-[ Close enough though... Chelsea...I know what you mean...grass is always greener on the other side I guess....see I was never too interested in Canada and then at Disney I met so many great canadians ( I partied more with them than with germans ), so I visited them and really noticed what a beautiful country it is Julia
aww chelsea i love the place, have family in vancouver and toronto. its a great place. its like people always say good things about the UK, i can't see the appeal! xxx
Eaton Centre great place to go to, if you need any info, just let me know because I work in a retail store inside the Eaton Centre. You can go to www.toronto.com and there will be lots of good infos on there Julia, actually I first thought Yongue was the german way of saying Yonge lol Guess I'm wrong
Hey Josie, How have u been?? Cool u r going to Canada!!! Hey my suggestion is that in Toronto go to see a Musical!! I love them all, went to see Mamma Mia!! and the Lion King there. One of the best musicals I have ever seen there. Guess at ur hotel reception u can get tickets there. Well hope u spend some cool holidays!!! Robb ;D
Canada is a wonderful place (but perhaps i'm biased cuz i live here ) Musicals, I highly recommend "Wicked" it doesn't start playing Toronto until March 7 and it's there until May 1st so if you're going in that time and you like musicals its worth the money! Plus i'd recommend buying tix before you go if you're able to cuz one never knows if it's going to be sold out. Only other place that I can think of to visit in Toronto,(I've only ever been to the airport there :) i don't really have much to recommend other than the Hockey Hall of Fame cuz that's so Canadian. Perhaps sometime you'll want to come out west and see Beautiful British Columbia No matter what you end up doing: Enjoy your trip!
Oh yeah...the musicals...I watched "Phantom of the Opera" 10 years back in Toronto. It was AMAZING! We also just bought the tickets before the show and prices were really ok. Eaton Centre is definitely exciting, I just remember how huge it seemed to me back then ( afterwards I have been to the West Edmonton Mall so nothing really compared to that so far )... Ohhh BC Belle...definitely the nicest place to be. Vancouver is FANTASTIC! I also like Alberta though! Julia
gonna try and persuade my mum to see a musical! been to a few in london, but not recently, and since we're going for a speical occasion i'm sure she can be persuaded! can't wait to go now! so excited! jo
Another really great place to go would be Royal Ontario Museum Its in downtown toronto, it might take you the whole day though... lots of levels,and a ton of fun. There's the Hockey hall of fame, Bata Shoe Museum, lots of shopping, and the musicals are great too! Have fun. Erynn
If you really want to experince canada,visit a hockey game.Since the NHL is locked out the leafs won't be playing.But the next best thing is the Hamilton Bulldogs. www.hamiltonbulldogs.com or maybe even a Toronto Raptors basketball game.That is if you like sports
really interested now in seeing a musical over there... tried to do some research into whats on but haven't had much joy! anyone got a ticket type website that would be useful? or know of a musical thats on at the moment? thanks!
Josie... Musicals are a lot of fun, I love them myslef. Right now in Toronto, you could see Mamma Mia, www.mamma-mia.com or try this sight, its one that I stumbled a cross a while ago... http://www.stage-door.org/toronto.htm it's got a listing of most theatre companies in Toronto and their seasons, or what's playing. I hope you find one you like. when are you gonna be there? Erynn
