Air Highways to Toronto
by Jerry W. Bird
I've experienced so many great times in and around the City of Toronto and have made so many lasting friendships with Torontonians, writing about this great Canadian destination is a privilege. At one time it seemed, I almost lived at the Pearson International Airport, or was on a plane headed to or from the west. I never regretted a trip and in spite of the schedule, seemed to thrive on the hustle, bustle and excitement of Yonge and Bloor Streets, the multi racial mix, the lakeside and CNE, the Royal York Hotel, the O'Keefe Centre, Maple Leaf Gardens, Union Station and several dozen other icons. We hope to be there soon for the annual Travel and Leisure Show.

I will recall some of the people whose kindness made each stay such a pleasure, going out of their way, above and beyond the call of duty, to enhance my trip. While most visits could be classified as business, many felt like vacations, with Muskoka Lakes to the north, Stratford to the east, dozens of neat little towns in every direction, and the honeymoon capital, Niagara Falls a few miles south. I had spent a few months in training at the Trenton Royal Canadian Airforce base, and enjoyed several happy reunions there on the Bay of Quinte.
