Dave and Diane had the opportunity to see their grandchildren this morning in Niagara Falls. It was so much fun to finally meet Amanda (their mother) and the kids. All four of them are so sweet. What a treat it was to meet them.
Toronto, ON:
Robert did a lot of research before we went on this trip about each of the teams and the stadiums. Rogers Centre, where the Blue Jays play is both a ball park and a football stadium. He found in his research that Rogers Stadium has the highest seats in both the National and America Leagues. So, naturally, we had to go up to those seats and try them out. Just so we can say we had. (Man, there were a lot of stairs)
However, this is where we actually got to sit to watch the game. Robert got us some spectacular seats. Behind us is the official Toronto Blue Jays' Tractor.
Twenty Years ago the Blue Jays were the first baseball team to build their ball park with a retractable roof. When we went into the stadium the roof was closed due to a threat of rain. I was delighted when they started to open the roof just before game time.
As they started to open the roof we discovered that we had not only awesome seats for the game, but the best view in the house. This is the CN Tower from our seats. At night it lights up from top to bottom with the colors consistently changing (eerily similar to Niagara Falls at night time).
Next Stop: Detroit, MI

I am following your trip very closely. Consider me your vacation stalker. (by the way, could you please lower the volume on the tv?)
