The Beginning...

It all started from a dream, the dream? To travel and see the world! January the 21st 2013 saw the beginning of this.
Manchester to Toronto - After an early morning travel to the airport it was time for a quick good bye and board our plane to Toronto. A few hugs and tiers later we sat on the plane thinking "This is it!" Good start, an hour delay due the plane needing de icing. 7 hours later we landed in Toronto with smiles and joy.
First stop is immigration armed with a checklist of paperwork that we had doubled and tripled checked of requirements that the canadian immigration had given us , only for non of it to be looked at ! We both had our visas granted and stamped all under 10 mins typical lol! Next stop finding our accommodation, easy! We're not the best as many of you know in finding our way or navigation but surprisingly we found it first time no bother. Loving Canada already, chilly but great.

 (Little example of conditions here at the moment.)

Snow boot and down jackets coming in perfectly already! First couple of days we have spent walking around, relaxing and exploring. Choosing/finding activities to fill our week while we stop here before moving on to the capital Ottawa.
Already stumbling apon the 'Rodgers Center' (Home of the Toronto Blue Jays) we were keen to see what else Toronto had to offer. Couple of ideas we have for the next few days:

• Go up the CN Tower
• Visit Toronto Zoo
• Kensington Market

For now it's off for some food as we are both starving. Blog will be updated as often as possible.
