849.0. "Best Places To Visit In Toronto" by WOTVAX::FORSTERG (Gill Forster) Thu Aug 04 1994 16:33

    
    Hi,
    
    I'll be visiting Toronto for the first time flying in on 3rd September.  
    Can anyone recommend the best places to visit ..... what's the weather 
    like that time of year.... and any particular places which we should 
    avoid day/night.
    
    Please reply either here or to GILL FORSTER @OLO or WOTVAX::FORSTERG
    
    Thanks in advance for any help ......
    Gill

    The CNE will be on then (the fair), but it's an acquired taste.  
    Weather should be good. 
    
    Depends on your interests.  Mention a few, and we can give some
    pointers, and then go down some ratholes.  
    
    There are not too many areas I would say avoid, certainly none that
    tourists visit, but be cautious, this is NOT the same city it was.  
    
    Traffic can real bad, depending on the situation (Jays game, road work,
    etc.).

849.3Thanks To All Who Replied/PhonedWOTVAX::FORSTERGGill ForsterWed Sep 14 1994 09:0919
    Just a few lines to say Many Thanks to everyone who replied/phoned to
    my request.
    
    We had an absolutely fabulous time, I'll not chatter here about where
    we went etc.   We ended up staying at the Chestnut Park Hotel in
    Toronto on the 22nd Floor facing the Digital Building....just what I
    needed to be reminded of on my vacation !
    
    Toronto is a great place to be, even if the Blue Jays were not playing
    (we were looking forward to seeing a match) and Niagara Falls -
    beautiful & breath taking.
    
    I'll certainly be making another visit in the future, and would love to
    live there.
    
    Many thanks,
    Gill
