Philosopher’s Walk: A Great Walk in Toronto

One of the things I haven’t talked that much about on The Toronto Traveler is the outdoors in Toronto.  Most of the things I mention are either places you can visit or things you can do inside one of the many buildings located in the city, but I have yet to discuss something that you […]

TPOD: Enjoying the Breeze

Well, I just finished my last exam for the year and am definitely in decompression mode.  Additionally, the exam made it a bit difficult for me to come with something insightful today, so instead I’ve gone through pictures on Flickr to find you an excellent Toronto picture to act as a holdover to tomorrow.  In […]

Subway Sundays to Begin Today

A few days ago, I wrote a post that talked about how Toronto subway stations have distinctive tiling and how that tiling had been captured by a set of buttons that were now on sale.  While that post was originally just going to be a stand alone post in and of itself, it […]

TPOD: Downtown in Time Elapse Fashion

Up today is a fantastic picture taken and laced together by wvs on Flickr (released under the CC-ANNDW 2.0 License).  It’s six different pictures of the Toronto downtown core, with each picture taken two hours apart and then parts of the pictures stitched together in order to create a time elapse effect.  I think it’s one […]
