Last stop- Toronto

Had a relaxing few days in Toronto and spent yesterday partly at a Brazilia Day street party in the centre of town and partly shopping. I'm still working out how everything is going to fit in my backpack and I feel 3 carry on bags is pushing it now!!

Today I went to Niagara Falls on an organised tour- wow this wasn't what I was expecting! So touristy and built up around them but still incredible to watch. I did the Maid in the Mist tour and got soaked (although they provided us with bright blue ponchos). I don't think anyone expected to get so close to the waterfall. After this we had some free time to explore all the hideously tacky shops and amusement places in Niagara. On the way back we stopped at a wine tasting place and sampled some Canadian table and Ice Wine (which is a dessert one). This was entertaining and it's always nice to have some alcohol- especially when its free.

Tomorrow I'm leaving in the evening so will hopefully do one more blog before then......SEE YOU SOON!!
