If you haven't been to Toronto before, you're going to love it. It's a brilliant city.

Rent a pair of rollerblades and go along the waterfront pathway(The Martin Goodman Trail) from one end of downtown to the other. On the east side, there's a beach/park called Ashbridges Bay where the largest beach volleyball league in North America should be playing(around 7pm).

Also, take a ferry across to Toronto Island and get some pictures of the skyline from there.

If you have a car, you can head north of the city to Canada's Wonderland, but it would most likely be packed. Keep heading north for cottage country and some beautiful lakes.

For shopping, start at the Eaton Centre and walk west on Queen Street. You'll also see MuchMusic's location on Queen St. W(if that interests you).

Nightlife? The club district is just south of the MuchMusic building.

I agree with the person who mentioned the Docks earlier. A great place to spend a hot afternoon.

Wear your Flames gear proudly! People will give you a thumbs-up, much like I experienced in May flying a Flames flag from my rental car in Toronto. Toronto is a hockey town, so they will definitely be pleased to see a Flames logo.

And, of course, you have to go to the Hockey Hall of Fame.
