We spent three days at the Indian Line campground just outside of Toronto on the recommendation of our friends we met in Niagara. Nice small camp with full hookups at a reasonable price. The trees are starting to turn there which is a wonder for those of us from Texas who don't really get a Fall.

Here is a picture of our friends - the Marshall family - Paul, Tori, Brittany and Sharon. What a lovely family with two gorgeous and talented daughters.

They invited us over to dinner on Sunday evening and we had a wonderful time.

On Saturday, we took the subway into downtown Toronto and ALMOST got to see Spamalot.
 
Spamalot
We had seen that it was there but it supposedly had left at the end of August. While downtown, we saw signs that it was running through Sept. 10th. We got on the subway and headed to the theatre which was close to the Toronto version of Times Square

to see if there were any seats lefts. There were three - one behind a post and two in handicapped spaces - at the full price of course. We decided to wait for better things.

The big draw in Toronto this time since we had already been up the CN tower was the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Lots of really neat things to see and in the Great Hall, a wonderful dome of stained glass.

The main attraction was the Stanley Cup - the original and the newer version. Here's the original bowl and a close up on the original rings.

Of course, we had to have our picture taken with the Stanley Cup. I have my hand on the spot where the Dallas Stars names are engraved.
