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 though. Mom thnks it looks like it has Google eyes. It gives off 600 volts of electricity to harm it's predators but also to see in the muddy water!


This was one of my favorite parts probably because I was a stingray in the Little Mermaid Ballet!


The Aquarium had lots of interesting things for kids to do. I got to climb into a bubble and have sharks swim right around me. I guess the bubble made it look different though, because the sharks looked really small, but hey weren't.
We rented a car the last two days. We had a white Toyota Matrix  which was nice. We drove it to The Science Centre.
This was a "game" where I had to look at x-rays, CT scans, and MRI's of brain injuries and figure out where the problem was. I really enjoyed this one.

Thsi is the suspension bridge in the Rainforest part of the Science Centre. It was really humid in here.


I did not want to do this - it's scary! But when Mom said she'd come up with me I was excited to do it! It was kind of weird though. I felt the shock through my feet which apparently I wasn't supposed to.

My hair!
This was supposed to use wind power to raise a ball in the air but I thought I'd try my hair agian! It sure felt weird on my cheeks!
 I was very excited to go to Casa Loma - a castle that took three years to build from 1911-1914 by Sir Henry Pellatt. He was a businessman who brought electricity to Toronto! Casa Loma was the first home to have an elevator in North America!
There are 98 rooms and seven floors in the castle! We walked a lot of very narrow circular stairs! We even climbed the Scottish Tower and looked out the little windows! That was  almost like climbing the lighthouse out in PEI - but not as hot!

Lady Mary Pellatt's room.
Transportation! - We travelled by train to get to Toronto and by plane to get home. That was a first for me for both! It was a lot of fun. We also got to go on a street car home from Medieval Times which was fun too. And of course stayed on a boat and even got to go for a little ride on it the first day when they went to the next pier to dump their toilet water!
I loved traveling by train!

The trip was only 41 minutes,but the Toronto airport was soooo busy. We got there over 1 1/2 hours early and we were so far back in the line they had to move us up to get through security so we wouldn't be late! I think I like the train better. The Ottawa airport was nice and quiet though, so maybe I'd like small airports.

I'd liked takeoff! And we saw the CN Tower from above this time!!!
Stay tuned for our next trip - To GUATEMALA!!!

Unique 2

Everyone is put in their year for a reason. This talk was based on Esther, who was put in her time for a purpose. That purpose was to save all the Jews. 1. We are all placed in a Unique Time and Place. - For a purpose that only God knows. 2. I am expected to live with integrity.     - Chapters 1-2 - You may be thrown into the deep end but God is with you always. Try your hardest. Do the big and small thing for God. 3. I must stand only for what is right, with wisdom.      - Chapters 3-4 - Take risks for Jesus. Do something in person for Him. Don't rely on social media to do the taking for you. 4. I must leverage my position and power to further the kingdom.      - Chapters 5-10 - Use everything that has been given to you and make God's kingdom bigger. Why was I born here and now?? Am I living my life in a way that can be used by God?? Do I stand for Him in the little ways??

When you become a Christian you become part of the body. The Christian body also known as the church. Everyone in this body has his or hers unique part to play. 1 Corinthians 12 explains all this so lets go and dive in. 1. We are all uniquely gifted- :11 As God wills He gives us a different gift individually. There are these "gifts" called spiritual gifts. They are given to you by the Holy Sprit. For the most part every Christian will have one because there are so many . I personally have the gift of giving. I love to give and help people but for others it will be different. The neat thing is that God gives them to us because he knows us so well. 2. God put the Body together- :18 Each of us have a part. Like it is the actual human body a foot walks a hand holds a eye sees and so on. 3. All Body parts are needed- :22 Again it is the same as a human body. If you don't have a foot then it doesn't work very well. Also you are never the same if you don't hav...

Welcome to a four blog series. They were so good that I wanted to share them with everyone here. Please stay tuned for the three more that I am going to post. It will all be in one week. PSALM 139:1-6  God knows us.  God knows things about you that you don't know about you. He knows you're future, the number of hairs on your body and more! PSALM 139:7-12 He is always with us He is the friend who won't leave you alone. He's always around, constantly listening and always ready to give you a hug. There is nothing you can do to get away from Him. PSALM 139:13-16 He created us God loves us because He created us. He knit us together. He is proud of the creation that He made. You know when a small child drew something and is eager to show someone and the person doesn't seem to care as much as the child. That only makes sense because the child made it. This creation is part of the child. God created us in the same way. PSALM 139:17-18 He thinks about us He th...
