    Toronto has warmed up to a pleasant 1F (-17C). /ravi

    Google weather says 21F. Did you mean wind chill?

      Yes, when I wrote my post it was 1F with the wind chill.  Weather.com tells me it's currently 16F (4F with the wind chill) right now (Sun 12-Feb noon). /ravi

          Moving to the Great White North has improved my math skills.  But I still grimace trying to convert MPG to Litres/km. :) /ravi

                planning to do some sight seeing (CN Tower looks pretty)

                Don't forget Active Surplus on Queen St. A geeks paradise (OK, you need to have a hardware bent to truly appreciate the place). And it's walking distance from the CN tower, at least you'll get there quicker than by car.... Crap, just seen it on google street view, it has changed, and looks pretty small to what it was a few years back when I was last there. I guess YMMV.[^]

                Thanks for the heads up! Google says it's a 15 minute walk, so no doubt I'll be able to get sufficiently lost in that time... I did want to visit the CodeProject HQ to see the hamsters, but it doesn't look very close to the centre/airport so will have to wait for a future visit.

                  Well, it's going to be cool tonight, but looking up over the week until Friday. Tuesday, high of 5C, low of -2C with snow flurries. So cold is pretty relative of where your coming from.... Many years ago, my sister lived in Toronto, and my wife and I visited from out west, with one of (my nefarious)intentions to visit the Active mecca. Pre-internet/GPS/etc, We drove back and forth with paper maps (remember those) and never did find it. On the news that night they were reporting a stabbing incident, and in the background....yep, there it was, giant stuffed gorilla guarding the entrance... I was then living in northern Manitoba-population 150 on a good day, and the Toronto driving scared the cr@p out of me, esp downtown, never mind the Hwy 401 crazed drivers doing 120 kmph bumper to bumper. BTW, where is CPHQ?

                    If you take a look at the bottom of Help! -> About Us it says it's at 503-250 Ferrand Drive, which Google says will take me an hour to get to from the CN Tower by public transport (but only 16mins in car!?)

                      Didn't know that. hmm, Don Valley and Eglington. That's a good hour from anywhere. Its pretty much east end Toronto, versus the airport which is West end. Even from the CN Tower, which is south west/central, that is a good ways. Make a good quest to see if you can get both in a mere 10 hours. Bonus points if you make it through security in time :-D But your right, 10 hours is a long time to waste in an airport. Getting downtown on Public transport shouldn't be too bad, and a walk around there is an interesting experience....just leave yourself plenty of time to make it back.
