What A View!What A View!What A View!

A Picture perfect view of Toronto's skyline from Center Island.
I visited the island with one of my friends and her daughter in June of 2006. If you plan on visiting Toronto in the summertime, try to get to the Island. I find it to be a truly peaceful respite away from the city's chaos. It is only a short Ferry ride away from Toronto. Ferries leave every 15 minutes from Bay St. and Queens Quay at Harbourfront, just south of Union Station.

The Toronto Islands consist of Ward's Island, Center Island and Hanlan's Point. The majority of attractions are on Center Island. Centerville is the small amusement park portion of the island. Food and souvenirs can be expensive so be prepared. It is easy to spend a whole day there when the weather is pleasant. Pack a picnic or head to the beaches for some rest and relaxation.

I'm not sure how long this ride has been out of service, but years ago it was open to the public. I can't believe I rode this thing. Especially since I'm afraid of heights!
