We headed all the way out to the Botanical Gardens. It seemed close, but Toronto is so huge that it just seems close on the map. Toronto is the 4th largest city in all of North America and that takes some getting used to. The gardens were delightful and we also enjoyed the ride along the Don Valley. On the way home we stopped off in the Distillery District. We were parched so some Flying Monkeys Beer and a Hibiscus Lime Gin is just what we needed. Then as we walked to the streetcar the public art just went on and on. A huge spider, a series of painted shapes, a huge heart and a row of de-barked and painted trees
Looking like little butterflies
3-D look at the cone flowers
Reminds me of my favorite flowers
Petunia your piano
A burst of color
The centers look like they have been kissed
Lilly of the garden
More black squirrels
Peacock art
Windy Day
She is so good that they named the street after her
The Distillery District
It could be called the Red Brick District
This still would make a whole lotta of hootch
Its a whole lotta hootch
Its a cool place for wedding photos
Parched I tell you...parched!
Leslie's beer was called Worlds Away from the Flying Monkey Brewing
So tasty that I asked for a gallon jug of this stiff stuff
It packed a punch. I asked the bartender about the ingredients and she told me that too much gin spilled in by accident.
Lovely parasol ceiling
Qu water? Who is behind such a drink?
Cooking up a snack
My sweetie and a flower being
Lines on the walls, ground and the sculpture
A series of painted people
Strange Dali-like spider
Love this place
More Public Art
Brightly Painted Stumps
On a building façade
Nice day!
