Title:
Toronto Travel: Biking Tour to Toronto Islands 2007 - Loading ferry
Description:
These video clips were taken during my biking tour on July 12, 2007. I rode from Toronto's east end through the Don Valley, underneath the famous Bloor Viaduct Bridge, into the downtown east side of Toronto. I briefly stopped at the Distillery District, Toronto's award-winning heritage and entertainment district that encompasses 44 restored Victorian industrial buildings that have been restored into restaurants, cafés, galleries, unique retail stores and even a theatre. From there I rode to the foot of Bay Street where I caught a ferry to the Toronto Islands, a beautiful quiet and green sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Toronto. After a brief exploration of the residential areas on Wards Island and Algonquin Island I headed back to the mainland where I got caught in a huge thunderstorm and had to ride home for about 50 minutes in the pouring rain. But even that was fun. The clips from this biking trip are part of my "Toronto Favourites" series and many more of these discoveries are to come. I am actually a travel writer, and whenever I am not out of town, I write about the city that I live in: Toronto, a city that has many cool places. I love to get out and explore the city and discover some new cool spots, and now you can enjoy them with me. Feel free to check out some of my 700+ articles and interviews on http//www.travelandtransitions.com. My personal travel stories are located at http://www.travelandtransitions.com/stories_photos.htm. Also, my FREE travel ebooks containing stories from my trips to destinations such as Sicily, Havana, Mexico City, New York City, Chicago, Florida, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Vancouver, Halifax and many others are going up right now at http://www.travelandtransitions.com/ebooks.html.

If it weren't for the traffic noise that you can hear from the Don Valley Parkway, you'd think you are in some rural country setting, cycling peacefully in the wooded areas beside the Don River. Past the old Portlands and the eastern part of Harbourfront I started to line up for the ... |
