Fun day trip to escape the city! My favourite is Wards island, best beach and relaxing atmosphere. If you are going with smaller children I would recommend Centre island because they have a mini zoo and amusement park. You can take the ferry and be there in 15 minutes!

This long alley in Toronto will look familiar to Canadians who have watched the long running TV comedy series, Rick Mercer Report. This is where he filmed his controversial news rants. Even if you have never seen this show, this is an incredible area that seems to go on forever. Tourists love coming here, posing in painted doorways and windows and taking selfies day and night.
