    tourists in toronto

    I went to visit our friends Anna and Jim last year in Toronto, but this was Rob's first time to visit.  We spent most of our time with the family, but we did manage to catch a few sites in town.

    Anna and I in front of the (not-so) attractive Libeskind addition to the Royal Ontario Musuem - I find it funny that the only photo we took was in front of a building we weren't too crazy about!

    The AGO was a much better architectural experience.  One of our good friends worked on the addition, so it was great to get to go.

    I like this photo because I look so worried - I thought someone was going to get in the shot!

    Our favorite space in the museum was the Italian gallery.

    Hey Chloe!  You're a cutie!

    Like last time, we took the ferry to Center Island.

    I always love looking at the view to the city.

    We did venture out to the suburbs to go to a Malaysian restaurant a friend recommended - it was fantastic!  And we got to start out with delicious non-alcholic Malaysian coolers!

    Next up is a quick visit to Hartford and Long Island, ending our trip in Manhattan!!

    gorgeous photos, so many look like postcards, including your "pensive look" one!

    They put THAT in front of the ROM? It might be fine on its own, but that doesn't strike me as architecture that goes along with something with "Royal" in its name.

    I haven't been to Toronto in more than 10 years, and this post really makes me want to go back. When I was there last time (with my parents), I definitely didn't look at any of the architecture. I know I'd like it better now!
