Visit to Toronto - Page 2

Always a pleasure to meet new people and help......spend other people's money. I live vicariously through others

It's been asked so I 'll answer: "I get NO commissions, kickbacks, dates with their relatives from the LFS for these tours. Although......I probably wouldn't be opposed to it. D'oh!"

Roadtrip pictures of eyecandy coming up later......

Cheers.

P.S. - Special thanks to FragCave's Hospitality and taxi service and to Canada Coral's exceptional customer service.

Next time. Unfortunately for this trip; our time frame was 3pm-7pm from the downtown core. Prime rush hour window. Traffic was....."extra special"

I was in Toronto this weekend. Thought about grabbing some corals but the traffic made me believe that they might not survive the "tour" to the hotel!

I'm going to be going to Toronto later this week for the Honda Indy. I'm new to the saltwater hobby so I appreciate this thread. I'd like to check out some of these cool stores!

SWEET!

We got some all-access passes to the Honda Indy also. We have a friend that is racing so we get to spend time in the pits. Woot!

That's awesome! You're lucky to get all-access passes. Pit access would be an amazing experience. I hope you have a great time! It's so much fun I try and go every year!
