Getting our first look at the tower as we walk in Toronto
The day started with us taking the subway to Union Station. The subway in of itself is an experience. It can be a bit overwhelming for a first time rider figuring out how it works. The kids certainly had enough interesting people to see on the subway and walking to the tower. It was fun watching them process everything with out saying much, you could tell by the looks on their faces that they were taking in the sites, sounds and smells of downtown Toronto.

Once we paid we had to pass through security before entering the tower. When you passed through these security stations they poofed you I'm sure, with some kind of chemical. They were checking for explosive material on your person.
Amy looking out the glass floor. You can see 1122 ft. or 342 m to the ground.
I was lying down on the glass floor and yes, I was a bit freaked out!
Ethan and I up in the Sky Pod. We are now 1465 ft. or 447 m. in a glass enclosed area. You can see tons on a clear day. They say you can see Niagara Fall. I didn't see them, but I saw a lot of other things.

We are looking down at this group of people. They are at the Look Out level walking around the OUTSIDE edge of tower. It costs a lot of money to get this rush and I think you have to be a bit crazy to try it!

One of the things we did at the tower was watch a 3D movie. The movie was a bust, but we sure had fun looking silly in these crazy glasses.
Standing at the base of the tower and looking up you can't see the top of it.
That's CRAZY! Of course I know nothing about that tower at all, but CRAZY!! I love the pictures of your family. You and Keith look so happy! :) LOVE you guys! Beth! : )
