Tue, Nov 25 2008 - Walking in a Window Wonderland - Scenic Stroll (View Original Event Details)
|  |
We came and we saw, sort of. Some of the windows were no longer up, others weren't accessible by the time we got there. However, on a positive note, the weather was lovely for late November and made the walk all that more enjoyable.
At Yonge/Dundas we got to check out Toronto's first 'pedestrian scramble'. A light system whereby vehicular traffic stops in all directions while pedestrians are free to scramble any which way. Our group also discovered that Extreme Fitness at the Toronto Life Building is less like the gyms of old and more like an Internet cafe/lounge complete with state of the art fancy workout machines.
On Dundas we passed the OLG Prize Centre where visions of winning big lottery prizes danced in our heads. We also saw the device used for the selection of winning # balls.
Diane suggested we look at the Swarovski Crystal Wish Tree inside the Eaton Centre. It was a fabulous idea, the tree is absolutely gorgeous and very sparkly for people that are into that.
