You didn't think the parade was over yet, did you?!?

I wasn't aware that sexy was ever there in the first place:

Note the individual behind HeSheCheetah - yep, nekkid and umm... in "transition"  :-P

Having had our fill of flesh parade we headed over to the festivities on Church Street:

We needed a little food, some of my dinner companions wanted to order the server  :roll:

Though the interior of the place was nifty:

Madame Butterfly?

Busy in every direction:

I suppose I can see why someone might find him attractive (he's alright, but he's no S.O.) ;-)

Heavy on the accessories and not much else:

Over to the Barn for some dancing - no, it wasn't country music (as IF!):

to08_113.jpg

 

We left around 2am-ish, yep - streets were still crowded:

Woke up early the next morning for a quick stroll around the hotel - found a few old gems (buildings, not people!):

And new gems in the making:

A little canyon effect:

Lovely older building - what is it?

to08_118.jpg

 

Ahh, thank you - such helpful little angels!

to08_119.jpg

 

The closest I got to the CN Tower (thank you 12x zoom):

About a dozen restaurants on each side of this street - none with the same cuisine. I was all set to gorge on either Korean BBQ or Indian food but some of my friends wanted pancakes. At noon. On a MONDAY.  :x

to08_121.jpg

 

So adieu to the charming street, and off to Fran's. Can't complain - they had good beer on tap:

to08_122.jpg

 

Filled up and fueled up, we hit the road:

Thanks TO, it was fun:

I *knew* I forgot something - wouldn't these look nice in downtown Cleveland?

From the Burlington Bay skyway (about 30 miles southwest):

From a bridge near St. Catharines (about 35 miles southeast):

to08_127.jpg

 

Niagara Falls - note the mist on the right (by the last hotel):

to08_128.jpg

 

Teehee!!!  :-D

Buffalo's City Hall from the border:

to08_130.jpg

 

Anyone know what this is?

to08_131.jpg

 

No, we did NOT sing "I'm Proud to be an American" - though it was nice to be back stateside:

to08_132.jpg

 

Nice city, nice buildings, skyline - not so much:

to08_133.jpg

 

I like their City Hall better than ours:

to08_134.jpg

 

To borrow a line from Motley Crue: "I'm on my waaaay..."

to08_135.jpg

 

"Just set me freeeee..."

to08_136.jpg

 

"Home sweet home!!!"

Nice series

very good -- back home safe and sound!

And I'm sure you went 90 on I-90.

"You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers

I've taken that drive from Clev to Toronto several times and I felt like I was right there with you with these photos. Great series!

That's an interesting Buffalo skyline shot... sure, it's not terribly tall... but it's unfortunate that there are no decent vantage points of the Buffalo skyline... even the view from Lake Erie is blocked by some crap along the waterfront

Looks like you had a great time. Toronto looks like fun and the city sure has grown up from the stodgy place of the 1950s and 60s to the dynamic place it is today.

The last shot with the three sisters in Cleveland is very flattering.  Really like the bridges and building combo.

 

 

god I love toronto....I'd take it any day over the mess that is NYC.

I hate the delay on the NY Thruway that all those Canadians cause trying to get past the tollbooths into Buffalo.  We waited for an hour one Thanksgiving....

Toronto is so gay.

Toronto is so gay.

 

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!  :clap:
