Tourist in my own town

A while back I had decided that this was going to be the summer of me doing Toronto things that I haven't done in the 5 years that I've lived here -- the somewhat-but-not-completely-touristy things that make people look at you funny when you admit you've never done that, combined with things that I keep telling myself I'm going to do. And I wrote the list and forgot to post it, and have since actually done a couple of things. Go me!

St. Lawrence Market: Since I'm cat-sitting about two blocks away from the market, I thought this was a perfect opportunity. So yesterday my friend C. (another downtown condo dweller) and I made our way through the crowds and bought lovely farm-fresh vegetable. And pie. I also found all sorts of places in the permanent market that will be great for stocking stuffers for my parents, since I've pretty much exhausted the craft fair regulars.

Toronto Islands: We actually went to the islands (instead of just talking about it) when ubertrout_77 was visiting. They are such an odd place - both residential and summer getaway, empty and crowded, remote and practically in the middle of downtown. Nice, though. I'd like to go back some day and walk along the boardwalk.

Still to do:
High Park
Toronto Walking Tours
ROM

You may notice that the AGO isn't on the list, because, shockingly, I have managed to go there a couple of times. Granted, both times it was on the free entry night, and once it was because we were so hot we wanted to do something with air conditioning, but still. I have seen the art! Also, I'd like to go up the CN tower some day, just because, but it's so expensive. I'm waiting until my parents come to town again. :D
