WordPress Prompt – A Main Attraction

Name an attraction or town close to home that you still haven’t got around to visiting.

I don’t often respond to these, but this one intrigued me and got me thinking. I’ve lived 99% of my life in Ontario, Canada. With a short stint in Alberta, but that is not important at the moment. And I’ve seen quite a few well known attractions and idyllic towns here.

However, there is one major attraction I’ve never seen and it’s only two hours away. I’ve seen it in passing while in a car of course, but apparently seeing it in person and peering down from above is a totally different experience.

CN Tower in Toronto.

Now, I know every major city everywhere has some big building, monument, tower, etc; that tends to attract the interest of tourists and even locals. I myself have been avoiding this tower like the plague since I can remember. Why? You may ask. Let me tell you.

I’m deathly afraid of heights and shooting up an elevator to, I believe it’s 124 stories (53 metres or 1,815 feet), is not my idea of a good time. Don’t quote me on the height, it could be taller!

Do you know that people can actually walk around the outside at the very top? Yup! It’s called Edgewalk….no thanks!

Needless to say, I’m not rushing over there to take a peek from high in the sky. I’ve seen it from a plane. But if my kids ever wants to go, I won’t deny them the trip. However, it doesn’t mean I have to like it!

Where haven’t you been?

Ciao!
