"Little India" East Gerard Street
Almost had Pakistani mangoes, supposedly the best, unavailable in USA, but they were too ripe.
Delicious Pakistani Food
Spicy too. Don't know if it's the "sister" restaurant to Jackson Heights' Kabob King. Lahore is Raana's home town.
More of Little India
More like Little South Asia -- Green crescent & star flag is Pakistan flag.
Interesting Toronto Street Sign
Have road rage? Turn here and calm down!
CN Tower Views from lower level
Looking west along the Lake Ontario, toward Mississauga
Straight down through glass floor
Sign not to worry about glass floor breaking, that it could hold 20 hippopotami (or something like that)

Don't know what the round building is but it's cool! I think it's some type of auditorium or theatre.
