Where the Beach has No Name

[pyat]

It was bright, warm day and April, and the clocks were striking thirteen...

commanderteddog works very close to my office. Typically, this means we go for walks and lunch once a week or so. However, in the interests of budget and health, we have devised a list of Toronto places within 2 kilometres of our respective offices. Instead of meeting for lunch, we'll walk to one of these places, getting in a good ramble and saving money.

Today, we went to the Artificial Beach.


Glorious, isn't it?



It's right across from Toronto Island Airport.


And a marine fire station! "Quick, the lake is aflame!"


It's also close to some tall ships we were intending to visit as separate lunchtime adventures.


The fire-fighting boat is named for a Canadian revolutionary.


The other side of the beach. In summer, they put out Muskoka chairs.


Another tall(ish) ship.


The Natrel-Bot, fighting crime at the docks.

Or maybe just ice cream.

Is the lake by Toronto still flamable? I thought they were cleaning it up.
