We stayed an extra day in Toronto over the family picnic weekend as Great Grandma was experiencing some difficulties and we wanted to make sure both her and Great Grandpa were doing ok before we headed home. As Mommy accompanied Great Grandpa to see her, Daddy and the kids kept themselves busy by heading on a little subway adventure downtown! Isabelle was last on a subway when she was in Paris at the age of 13 months and Oliver was on the TTC when he was 8 months, so neither one of them has any memory of it. They went into it with wide-eyed enthusiasm and it was a really fun experience. They loved as rushing to find seats, watching all the other riders, seeing all the different stops (some are outdoors, Dad!) and just riding the rails to the thriving downtown. The hustle and bustle of the city really hit them when the subway opened up to Union Station. People everywhere! A quick trip a few blocks over to see the Hockey Hall of Fame from outside and then it was time to head back, although they would have been just as happy to just ride it all the way to the end and back. It was a great way to pass the time and it will be hard to keep them from wanting a TTC experience every time we come to the city!
