GOODERHAM AND WORTS
Hello Mum! I have been so busy running around you would not believe the adventures I have been. We just came back from Dallas, Texas but it is so challenging to update my travelog there.
I am now back in Toronto and today, Godmother Lakambini, myself and RootBear decided to enjoy the Fall weather. We went out for a brunch in this popular place in Toronto called "The Distillery". Very trendy.
The Distillery District is a national Historic Site with an incredibly rich history. The site was once The Gooderham and Worts Distillery, and represents the largest and best preserved collection of Victorian Industrial Architecture in North America.
The Distillery is now the home for many Canadian Artisans. It is a wonderful place to showcase their creation!
There were places for kids too and look! I wanna play but there are just so many things to see!
This is the St. Lawrence Market which is a few blocks away from The Distillery. The weather today is wonderful so we all decided to go around for a walk after visiting Gooderham Distillery!
St. Lawrence Market is primarily known for its Saturday Farmers' Market, a tradition begun on this site in 1803 and continuing today, as the producers bring their seasonal produce to market in the city.
This is the Canadian Bank of Commerce - given that the upper levels of this pillared, three-story structure contained offices unused by the Canadian Bank of Commerce, the building was used for many years as the Council Chambers of the former Township of York, the inception of this use given as 1907.
This is the St. Lawrence Town Hall. St. Lawrence Hall is a meeting hall in Toronto, Canada next to the St. Lawrence Market. It was built, alongside the new city hall, in 1850 after an 1849 fire destroyed much of the market.
I am fine here, Mum and having a glorious time. Godmother Lakambini is visiting America again some time next month. RootBear and I are quite excited because we are, once again, tagging along!
Take care and hugs for now,
Mr. Yellow
