Visiting the Zoo and the ROM.

On the day after returning to Toronto, the 27. July, I went to the Toronto Zoo with Tiina. It was huge, I'd say. Took a lot of time to see all these different animals and other organisms, I think we were there for 6 hours. Both I and Tiina thought that the monkeys were the most interesting animals there. They were all so nice and funny. I also liked the polar bears, one of them only swam in circles, often on it's back. I really liked the way the zoo was organized, having Eurasian creatures in one area and African animals in another.
On the 28. August I went to a Chinese restaurant in downtown with Tiina and a family friend Andres Mullerbeck. Later I went to the Royal Ontario Museum (often shortened to ROM) with Andres. It is free from 15:00 to 18:00 on Wednesdays, so there were a lot of people visiting. There were several interesting exhibits, my favorites being the country specific ones, maybe. I liked the Egyptian one, the whole design of the exhibit was Ancient Egyptian, so it felt kind of comfortable. Later we walked around in downtown for a while, I bought an ice cappuccino from Tim Horton's, it was supposed to be really good, and it was. On the way back it started raining, and by the time we arrived home, we were very wet. And because there was nobody home and I didn't have any keys, Andres took me to his place. There I basically ate dinner and played PS3 (LittleBigPlanet, to be more exact, it's a fun game) until it was night.
Again, I don't currently have any photos to add, I'll do that some other time.
