Visit to The CN Tower
Last Friday we visited the CN tower and it was great ! I enjoy it very much and learn a lot about it, things that I will never expect. It is the World Largest Free Standing Building. We went on a very fast elevator the reach the top in 58 seconds. When we got there we went to the glass floor and it was so cool beacuse I could see how high I was and how strong it was! Later we went to the observation deck where you really could feel the power of the wind, It pushed you very easily. But we all really enjoy it. If you visit one day you have to visit the CN Tower :D

Hockey Hall Fame
We went to the Hockey Hall of Fame! I really don't know too much about Hockey but Ithink is a really good sport and I would like to play it one day. Although i didn;t enjoy it too much i took a picture with the Cup !:D
Niagra Falls
Last Weekend we went to Niagra falls i really like it a lot! It was a great experience we all really enjoy it and had a lot of fun. We went to ''The Maid of the Mist'' which is a boat that takes you very close to the Falls and you can feel the strong power of the water falling and you also get all wet! Then we went back to the hotel and rest for the next day, because we were going to Marineland ! There we saw a lot of shows that really impressed me because i love animals and i think that dolphins are really special animals. We also ride the ''Sky Scream'' that was sick! I was so scared but excited at the same time. When we were coming back we realize that Velkis was missing and we had to go for her at marineland !:S But ecluding that I really enjoy it. :)

Boat Cruise
Blue Jays Game
We went to the Blue Jays at the beginning it was BORING ! beacuse the Jays were losing 5-0 i was like dude...c'mon! But then they started scoring, and im not really a baseball fan but it was very interesting and fun! the people screaming and jumping also playing and giving out prizes. At the end when the Jays won we well all were happy and jumping,singing and shouting xD but we had a very good time ! :D
Toronto Zoo
Toronto zoo was a great trip alltought it was a little exhausting I had a great time, I saw a lot of animals and diversity of fauna. But think really that some animals should have more space to walk or run and do what they need :S I think is not fair to them. Also I couldn't see the polar bears :( we don't have those in Panama jajaja but i hope to see them in marineland. I think the animal that impressed me the most was the Tiger there are so big and strong, but as I said they dont look happy inside that cage...maybe they put them in there to protect them but well is a risk they have to take in order to save the species.
Visit to Casa Loma
Casa Loma is a very important touristic place to Canada. We went with our school group and had a good time I really expected more about it but it was good... My first impression was that is a huge house I had to walk so much to get to one place. I really wouldn't like to live in a house that big ! it also should be scary at night. They told me at night you can hear ghost and sounds but i really dont know and I really dont want to know ;). But anyways is a very beautiful house with beautiful designs and a lot of history. If someone to Canada you have to visit it!

First Impression of Canada
My first impression of Canada was that is was cold ! in Panama we dont have this cold climate, but i like cold climate :) jaja! also here in Toronto you expect to see very blonde people and stuff like that. But i got very impressed because i saw many different cultures in one place such as arabic, Indian, Chinnesse and Korean. People is very nice and polite here in Canada i hope to enjoy the rest of my trip .
