Field Trip to Harbourfront, including Queens Quay and Union Station

Were there fifty of us in this MicroSkills multi-site event?

It was Donald Crowe, Esq., to the fore again, as our LINC school took to the streets of Downtown Toronto to visit the Harbourfront.


Everyone seems to want to be the official photographer, including the idiot who climbed a chair to take this one!

From Union Station, we wended our way through (what I later found out to be the) Bay Wellington Tower, turned south past the Hockey Hall of Fame, marched down Yonge to Captain John's floating restaurant, turned right on Queens Quay, checked out Harbour Square Park, grabbed milk samples at the Natrel booth at East Pier, and hoofed it past the Sirius Stage to York Quay Centre as the heavens opened.



Guess which one's Donald ... in the belly of the Bay Wellington.


Various modes of travel

For the return journey, some wanted to ride the streetcar and others preferred to take in the weather, which had cleared. I wanted to see the Via Rail strike at Union, but when I got back there an hour and a half after it had been declared, there were only a battery of TV cameras and one or two reporters on Front Street and indoors.
