Postcard from CN Tower, Toronto


A visit to Toronto would not have been complete without a visit to the CN Tower - a building/structure that was the tallest in the world when it was completed in 1976.  It held that record for the following 34 years and whilst a few other buildings around the world have since surpassed it's height, it still has the ability to make you feel slightly dizzy when you stand at the bottom of it, looking up.
Playing at the bottom of the tower!



Long way down!
Tourists!!

View from the top!
Even though we were fully impressed with what we saw today, it became quickly apparent that Alfie didnt have to look as high up as us to find something that he found just as amazing!  He loves the trucks, diggers and tractors that seem to be hanging around on every street corner!  Sometimes he'll see something approaching in the distance and he stops dead in his tracks, widens his eyes and points to whatever it is he wants us to see.  It is the funniest, sweetest thing.  "Daaaaad, Daaaad, 'dare (there)" He drops his jaw open and stands amazed.  Sometimes he pulls the same expression when he sees a bird landing on the ground and we even saw him do it when he spotted a bright blue building that came into view. Ikea!
This is the face!

The world is looking pretty fantastic to Alfie at the moment!  
I'm hoping it lasts a really long time.......
