We packed and left the apartment and drove to meet V&M at 10 am. We parked the car in their guest parking and walked through some beautiful residential areas (Rosedale --one of Toronto’s oldest suburbs. It is also one of the wealthiest and highly priced neighborhoods in Canada. It is known as the area where the city's 'Old Money' lives, and is home to some of Canada's richest and most famous citizens ) and wooded ravines into an old brick factory converted into a weekend market. It was a farmer’s market with all kinds of veggies, fruits, foods, plants, etc. It was crowded with families with lots of kids and dogs. The area was lovely – trees, flowers, ponds with water lilies and turtles. Then we walked back through more ravines -- back to the car. At about 1:30 we set out for the rental car place. Even though we had been there twice before, we still had a hard time finding it because it is well hidden in a side street behind a Hilton hotel and you can drive around without ever seeing it. The flight was a bit late, but mostly uneventful and we got back home around 9 pm.
