Toronto Photos Part Two

This is my thrid blog about Toronto. Can you tell I had fun! If you are just tuning in now, make sure you go back and look at the other two! The Ripley's Aquarium! This was so much fun. Daddy got in free as Mom's attendant because Mom has a CNIB card, and he bought the tickets online so we didn't have to wait in line. Yay, because it was a very long line!   This was the entrance to the magic carpet (moving sidewalk) part of the Aquarium! It was so much fun and lasted about 20 -  30 minutes. Here we are in the tunnel. Lots of people, but we dind't have to move around anyone as we were all moving along at the same time. Fish, sharks, stingrays, sawfish, all around us. You could walk it too, but most people chose the magic carpet. That way you could just stand still and look around and still be moving! This is an electric ell!  I think it looks like a very long stuffed sock! It also looks like it has tusks but it doesn't. I don't know what they are...

Medieval Times! A long walk to get there but very fun! This is me with the Red Knight that we cheered for!     Six knight, six horses, six cheering sections. Lots of noise! Lots more horses during the show, but these were the main event. Me cheering loudly - with my red flower the knight threw to me! Dinner and the tournament!   Making Waves Boatel Bed and Breakfast - I want to go back! This is the boat we stayed on for the four days as seen form the CN Tower. I climbed up and down the ladder to get to the top deck.   This sweet dog is Apollo! He visited every morning  and I got to give him a treat! The owner was good friends with the owners of the boat. One surprise was the swans that came to the boat that I got to feed! Breakfast on the back deck of the boat - waffles, blueberry French toast, fruit, mango pomegranate juice... Yum! The CN Towe...

Hello, As some of you know we (Mom, Dad, and I) just went to Toronto. Where we stayed was called a Boatel - a hotel on a boat! We were in walking distance of the CN tower and the Aquarium and the CNE grounds. Unfortunately we were not there when the real CNE was on but we did go to The Medeval Times. We were the red color and our knight came in 2nd place in the tournaments. With every game our knight won he got 3 flowers and he threw them to the audience in his section. and I caught one! For the rest of the night I was waving my flower because it was red and our knight was red! The Aquarium was a real hit. I think it was my favorite. My favorite part was the Dangerous Lagoon.  You got to ride on this magic carpet moving sidewalk and there were sharks and sting rays and sawfish swimming right over your head. It was the most exiting and then there was of course the jellyfish and the ray bay also. The CN tower was also a lot of fun. We ate there once for dinner and once for lu...

This was my schedule- Wind I- 9:00-10:00 Chamber mix-10:00-10:45 Snack-10:45- 11:00 Wind I-11:00- 12:00 Lunch/Rec-12:00-1:30 African Drumming-1:30- 2:30 Band-2:30- 3:30 PHEW! That is a big day and just imagine I got to do it 10 days in a row. Wow. My favorite class was Band because there was such a variety of a instruments. The songs we played for concert were I`m A Believer,The March of the Irish Guard, and last but not least Pirates of the Caribbean! I`m a Believer and Pirates of the Caribbean were my favorite. In March of the Irish Guard the clarinets had a 8 bar rest and the trumpets were doing this really weird rhythm while we where trying to count 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and I said that I never could because of them!! Wind 1 was a lot of fun too. Since I was the only clarinet in the group I got  to play first clarinet. That was a lot of fun. I even got a solo once!!! Chamber mix was the best after Band! We had 2 violins...
