Toronto, Canada

A few weekends ago some girlfriends and I took a drive down to Toronto. It was one of the last few weekends of summer and we thought we’d spend it away. The drive there (about 5ish) hours was bright and sunny and we arrived at our AirBnB early evening. Just in time to grab some groceries for the weekend (a huge money saver) and a couple bottles of wine.

That evening we ventured out to the main street in the area we were staying (aroung Eglington and Younge) which is a little farther north in Toronto, but nonetheless a great place to still be in the city but in a quiet area. Our AirBnB was an upstairs apartment in a beautiful brick home. It was air conditioned, had a full kitchen and such a cute boho style.

During the weekend we made a few stops around the city. We ventured to Toronto Island and took the ferry there which was a new experience! We also went to Kensington Market (a favourite of mine), the Eaton centre, and went out at night around Queen Street.

It was a short but sweet getaway and on Sunday afternoon we parted ways and I took the train back home. If you’re ever in Toronto for a short time make sure to not miss some main attractions I missed this trip but have seen before. They include the CN tower, Dundas Square, the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), Casa Loma and the Distillery District to name a few.

Until next time!
