Hi We are also landing in Toronto on Saturday - where are you flying from? We are going BA from Heathrow (with 2 kids of similar age) - maybe see you in Pearson! Good luck. 4Shores |

Ooooh, come to my neighbourhood! All the kid friendly (and adult friendly) fun you could want and it is free. The neighbourhood is Cabbagetown (closest intersection is Parliament & Carlton) most of the houses are decorated for Halloween, everyone really gets into it and on the nights around Halloween the streets are packed with people and kids all out looking at the decorations.

We are going to look in your area or the Beach (or Beaches) whatever it is called now :-) If you'd like to venture a little north, there's a house on Pickering St where they have motion detectors, dry ice and sirens and one around the corner, on Swanwick west of Pickering where the householder swings down from a large tree, dressed as a ghoul and waves a running chainsaw. All the other houses on that block are decorated, I'd go for 8 or so and wander around until the kids are tired. |

The Tulip has a much better breakfast at lower cost, if you can bear being parted from the agonizingly trendy.

I don't think it'll work this time, thanks anyway, this move is likely to result in exhaustion. I expect my partner is around here somewhere, perhaps she'll think a social excursion is just what we'll need between loading and unloading but I rather doubt that!

Re: halloween info
Halloween demands planning. Ideally, costumes that are original and obviously home made, costumes that allow for many layers underneath and the ability to walk. Then you need an affluent area with small houses close together, the Beach, at least the relatively poor parts of the Beach is ideal; as well as meeting the above criteria it has lots of film people who put on a show. Cabbagetown, I dunno, large gay presence, may not be great distributors of sweeties. Be aware though that competition in these areas is stiff, I typically got a couple of hundred kids at the door.
