| The Crowne Plaza hotel, where most of the competitors stayed |
The first day, I explored Eglinton (the region in which the hotel was situated) |
Very shiny building, in Central Eglinton :D |
For the first night I stayed with Ron, this is the view from the balcony |

| An area with huge condominiums |
Even more condos, with the sun setting in the background |
Supporting Andy Camann, we got a free ride to downtown Toronto to witness his radio interview. Jason Hildebrand rides in "shotgun" position |
"Contemporary Art." It looked like a set of taps dripping paint on a white sheet to me... |

 |
| The Waterfront, next to which Andy Camann had his radio interview |
More buildings in the very heart of Toronto |
A view of a slightly more industrial area of the city |
My first proper look at the CN tower, which I planned to scale along with Jason Hildebrand and Keith Sauer |
|
|
|
|
| The sunlight reflects beautifully off of the windows of the CN tower's main vantage point |
Having made it to the top, after a furious cube race in the CN tower elevator (much to the surprise of the girl trying to give her welcoming speech!), we stood on the glass floor and felt a bit squeamish |
A wonderful view of Toronto |
View from the other side, with the shadow of the CN tower clearly in shot |

| Looking down, you can see the famous baseball stadium which plays host to the Toronto Blue Jays |
Before we go back to the hotel, one last shot of the beautiful buildings of Toronto |
