New been there, yep
spent the summer of 1984 there working at the MTCC, Metropolitan Toronto Convention Centre for the out of towners, while it was under construction. I was working for CN Rail on the maintenance crew supervising the contractors.

Couple of highlights of my stay: Seeing Topol in Fiddler on the Roof and Yul Brenner in The King and I. I was surprised at how short he was. But his stage presence filled the room.

I'm not looking forward to being in downtown TO in August again. But it's only for a couple of days. I'm sure I can handle it. :-)
Have fun,
Carl Forde

Yeah the heat and humidity can get pretty bad sometimes. All the asphalt and concrete don't help either. The waterfront and island are good spots to cool off if you don't want to be stuck inside with A/C. I don't mind it myself. It certainly beats the crappy winters.

If you'd be looking for a few quality places to wet your whistle I can recommend a few spots downtown for you...
