Summer is over, and my daughters and teacher husband are all back in school. That means I now have more time to write and to search out cool things to share here on Mondays.
During an earlier Thursday 13 post I listed some of the reasons why Toronto is a great place to live. One of the first things that comes to mind when thinking about Toronto is our skyline and the famous CN Tower – formerly the tallest freestanding structure in the world, but that honor now goes to the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. It is, however, still the tallest freestanding structure in the western hemisphere.
Recently, the CN Tower launched a new attraction – EdgeWalk. People can now walk around the outside of the disk section high up on the tower.
Let me repeat that … you strap into a harness and walk OUTSIDE the CN Tower. Personally, they couldn’t pay me enough to even consider doing it. It’s proven to be a very popular attraction, though. Recently, Jann Arden appeared on the Rick Mercer Report and Rick actually convinced her to try it out with him. I’ve attached the video clip of that segment. I can only shake my head in wonder as I watch this.
