Hockey and Beer

Our last full day in Toronto included, of course, a hockey game of the Maple Leafs. We paid our respect to legendary historic Maple Leaf Gardens in the morning (now a university sports facility) before we attended the NHL game against Boston in the evening.


Before watching the game we had a tour in the Amsterdam Brewery's adventure brewery, the oldest microbrewery in town and grabbed a bite to eat there. The brewery is picturesquely situated at Toronto's waterfront (see pic), where right now, in the winter, not much is going on.

On our way to the Air Canada Center CN Tower and the skyline were spectacularly lit up and we forgot about the snow flurries coming down.

Game ended late (overtime) and it's been a long day! This morning we had a "business breakfast" - very delicious! – in the Chelsea hotel, walked St. Lawrence Market neighborhood with the famous flatiron building (see pic) for the last time and then took the new (expensive) fast train to the airport. Thanks to Global Entry immigration and customs went fast, flight is delayed and we have time to catch up with paperwork at gate 68 of Toronto Pearson Airport (see pic).
