Toronto - February 15

The last 2 weeks in the UK has gone by with lightning speed. Soon we will be departing for Toronto for a few days holiday. I am actually looking forward to the trip because on one of the days we plan to visit the Niagara Falls. Much has been said about the city of Toronto and I am looking forward to the vast below ground shopping centres. There are numerous touristy places in and around Toronto that have been recommended but owing to our short stay we might not have time to visit them all. However, we like to consider this as a “sample” visit. If we like the city we would return to Toronto for a longer stay.

Winter in Toronto could turn out to be rather fun. We are hoping for some snow which would make our visit memorable. I remember visiting Boston a few year ago at around this time of the year. The snow on the day of our arrival was knee high. It was cold but very dry, sunny and pleasant. Let’s hope the winter in Toronto is similar to the winter of Boston.

We will depart London on February 15 from Heathrow Terminal 4 as all British Airways flights do. It will only be an 8 hour flight, so if we do not get first class or business, economy would be just fine. Looking forward to the trip and will write about it on return.
