The park opened on May 13, 2026, and brings together salvaged architectural stone relics from Guild Park, displayed like sculptural pieces within an open-air gallery (for those not familiar with Guild Park, it’s an…

Trike Tours Scotland (Edinburgh, Scotland)
Fantastic! On June 19, 2013 we had the absolute pleasure of taking The Borders Tour with Trike Tours Scotland. Gordon was our host and chauffeur for this incredible event. What a great way to see the Scottish countryside and we were grinning helplessly from ear to ear long before we even got out of Edinburgh city centre – what a riot! Our tour took us south from Edinburgh through the small…

So Long, Imperial Pub
Photo: TorontoToday.ca After 81 years, Toronto’s iconic Imperial Pub closed its doors last November.

The owners sold the…

Never Again I recently stayed at the Merchant Lodge Hotel in Glasgow, Scotland for two nights.

The room rate I paid during my visit was £40 per night for a double, which included ensuite bathroom, hair dryer, iron & ironing board and breakfast. Other room amenities were TV,…

The room (with exceptionally comfortable queen size bed) was a good size, very clean and the ensuite bathroom was also large, sparkling and immaculate. Lots of hot water and…

Toronto's Port Lands Bridges
As part of the massive project to revitalize the Toronto waterfront, a total of four new arch bridges have been built in the Port Lands. These bridges will protect the area from flooding, create a naturalized mouth for the Don River, and connect the future Villiers Island (now officially named Ookwemin Minising) to downtown Toronto. These are much-needed changes for our waterfront: The currently…

The Rosehill Reservoir sits beside Rosehill Avenue, east of Yonge Street, and is part of the David A. Balfour park: The Reservoir was created in 1874 to supply clean drinking water to the residents of Toronto, and continues serving this function…
