Toronto

A multicultural lakeside city that is progressively moving forward
get more info here
My family and I celebrated the July 4th week in Canada.  I know it's ironic to leave the country on Independence Day but it was a great trip!  My family and I were lucky enough to have such great weather the entire trip.  We went to Toront's Chinatown, Hyde Park, and Kensington Market.  We also went to the top of the iconic CN Tower where the floor is made of clear glass so definitely don't walk on this if you're scared of heights.  It gave me anxiety because I thought I would just fall!  We ended up having a great dinner in the tower where you could see everything in this beautiful city.  Finally, we spent July 4th in Niagara Falls, which isn't far from Toronto at all.  The colors of the American flag illuminated the waterfall leaving all of us with a great vacation.

Accommodations 

  • My family and I stayed at the Mariott Hotel 

Restaurants

  • Have dinner at the CN Tower
  • Stuff your face at the St. Lawrence Market
  • Try the peameal bacon sandwich from Carousal Bakery
  • Since we went around July 4th, we didn't get to see the Canadian National Exhibit but we were told there's amazing food trucks!

Cultural Activities 

  • Walk the CN Tower Edge Walk.  Maybe reconsider doing this if you're afraid of heights
  • Stroll through Kensington Market on Sundays
  • Do various water activities on Lake Ontario 
  • Enjoy the cherry blossoms in Hyde Park
  • Take a day trip to Niagara Falls or a ferry to the Toronto Islands
  • Swim in the largest heated indoor/outdoor swimming pool at the Sheraton Hotel
  • Check the art out at the Art Gallery of Ontario or the Royal Ontario Museum 

Clubs/Bars

  • I didn't go out to clubs/bars because I was ten years old
