Here's the tower from the base, with Paul in the picture to give you some sort of perspective. |
Yep, it's really high up. In two official languages. |
|
This is the top of the Skydome, where the Toronto Blue Jays now play baseball. I kind of miss the old Exhibition Stadium (and its rickety benchlike seats), but this is definitely a more plush venue. |
The view from far, far above. You can see the Royal York hotel (the short building with the green roof on the left side of the street), where Paul and I spent the night before travelling to Montreal. |
|
They've now got a glass (well, plexiglass/heavy duty plastic) floor in one section of the observation deck. It's fairly scuffed up from all the tourists walking on it, but it's still a pretty cool view straight down. Needless to say, walking on it is a slightly unnerving sensation. |
For the more faint hearted, you can look at the glass floor through a mirror hanging above it. My Dad took this picture of the mirror while Paul and I were standing on the glass. |

Paul checking out the view through the floor. |
Yes, that's Paul with giant stuffed moose. Sadly, this wasn't the only gift shop we encountered that had a gigantic stuffed animal. |
