CNE aka: Canadian National Exhibition, The Ex

with the exception of the last two. I think I have outgrown the place. Just don’t want to deal with the crowds. I do however miss the food terribly! Food just tastes better at the “Ex!” My favourite undoubtably are the ice cream waffle sandwiches! Mmmmmm MMMMM MMMM!

It was great!! I hadn’t been in almost four years. The grounds stay pretty much the same but lots of shopping and lots of things to do and see!! A must if you are in Toronto the last 2 weeks of August!!

very worth visiting!

I had a great time this year. I watched the Air Show which takes place every year during the Labour Day weekend. I had a Montreal deli sandwich in the food building (though it mostly has fast food). I had an ice cream waffle sandwich and a fresh chocolate and peanuts dipped vanilla ice cream bar. The stuffed animal prizes were well made this year – Simspons characters, Dora the Explorer, Stewie and other Family Guy characters, Sponge Bob Square Pants, and a fluorescent pink tear drop guy. One building had items from countries all over the world. It also had a dance show with dances from all over the world. The belly dancing was amazing, as was the Indian dances. The items in the stalls were very unique. There were also the winners of many gardening competitions, the items were all on display. I took time to stroll through some park ground and look at the Greek god statues near the old Press building. A perfect close to the summer.
