You can definitely do Toronto on the cheap! You just gotta know where to go. ;) Then again, I have the benefit of having been born and raised there. :)

If you visit Niagara, you have GOT to go on the Maid of The Mist! It is a definite must-do. :thumbs: Wear waterproof mascara. lol

mmm didn't end up doing that.. partly because it was so dang expensive.. but we did do the walk behind the falls though - and that was pretty cool.. makes you feel like you are drunk though - cause the air pressure changes so drastically and your body gets all freaked out!
