This post is dedicated to Ontario....where the federal government hangs out in Ottawa, Toronto (or Tronno as the locals seem to call it) dominates and of course, the thundering Niagara Falls does its thing. My very first trip as an adult was to Ontario (as well as Montreal to visit my cousin) to visit my mom's best friend in Ottawa and my very first solo endeavour..a trip to Toronto. This was early in 1973 and I booked myself way out of the main downtown in a hotel I'd seen in a brochure out west on Dundas. What can I say I was clueless for that first trip. As far as I recall the hotel was okay and it was pretty cool to take the clickety clackety street car into downtown Toronto. For future journeys in the 70's I stayed at the Y in Rosedale and I've stayed in bed and breakfasts as well as at my nieces place. Yes, Toronto and I go way back...I like the city and always have. Just maybe not in the humidity of summer.... However, Ontario is so much more than Toronto.
