Toronto Canada a busy City

Our train trip from Montreal to Toronto took about five and half hours but it was good without being spectacular and we saw some nice farmland and good scenery at times.
Checked into the Hilton in downtown Toronto which failed miserably compared to other hotels of this staure.
It is six star in price only despite having a fabulous view of the CN Tower from our suite.
The HOHO was very busy yesterday because of the enormous amount of road closures due to maintenance and also because Toronto is in the middle of the Toronto International Film Festival, where the are enormous lines of people lined up to secure tickets to the venues.
On Wednesday Night we had drinks with our travel agent who we have dealt with recently, it was nice to put a face to the email communication we have been having over the years.
The City has grown since we were last here and although we enjoyed it the atmosphere was not good even thought the weather has been good. Today we fly to Vancouver for the last leg of our trip.
The photos below depict Gloria on the train, the view of the CN Tower from our hotel room, Dundas Square a very busy city centre meeting point and the statue at the Rogers Centre the home of the Blue Jays the ice hockey and basketball teams.
