This is our last day in Toronto as we are heading home.  We will be crossing back into Detroit, Michigan and making a few stops along the way.

Toronto Pearson Airport

Exploring The Toronto Lakefront & Seeing A Play

Today's post will contain a mixture of activities in Toronto.

I haven't seen a Medicine Shoppe in forever!

Touring The Old Don Jail

This morning we decided to take an Uber to The Old Don Jail.  The Old Don Jail is a former jail in Toronto.  It was recently renovated as the administrative wing to the local hospital.  They have preserved parts of the jail, though, as a museum. 

Upon arriving, we picked up the last remaining brochure at the door.  The tour is self-guided.  We were the only people there touring the jail during the entire visit.  The layout is a little hard to navigate at first.

Touring Toronto's Elgin and Winter Garden Theatres

Tonight we are heading back to Downtown Toronto for a tour of the Elgin and Winter Garden Theatres.  These theatres are the last remaining Edwardian stacked theatres in the world.  The theatres were built in 1913.  Both theatres were home to different acts.  In 1928, the Winter Garden Theatre closed, leaving many artifacts inside.  Many years later, these items were discovered and the theatre was restored.  They give tours on Thursday nights.  You do not need to register beforehand; you simply pay at the door.

Heading to Toronto 

Visiting the African Lion Safari

On the drive to Toronto, we passed signs for the African Lion Safari in Hamilton, Ontario.  Today, we had to go check this place out!  African Lion Safari is a drive-thru zoo.  

Visiting Toronto Zoo

Good morning from Toronto, Canada!  On today's agenda is visiting Toronto Zoo.  The main reason for this visit is to see the Panda Bears.  This will be their last year in Toronto.  Then, we will head back to Downtown Toronto for lunch and to explore some stores.

Traveling to Toronto, Canada

After hours of exploring at The Henry Ford, we are now on our way to cross the border into Canada.  Our final destination is Toronto, Canada.  The Canadian Border is just a few minutes outside of Detroit; then, it is another four hours to Toronto.

Visiting The Henry Ford Museum

I am so excited about today!  We are going to The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.  I have heard about some of the pieces on exhibit here and can't wait to explore!
