Re: [arch-events] arch-events Digest, Vol 19, Issue 3

Sander, Parking in the college is not a problem. I think they are about $6.00 or $7.00 a day. Dusty, the 191 takes about 40 min from Kipling station to Humber in a normal day. David, I live in Bolton and have NEVER seen a MegaBus but if you are going to pass by Bolton you best bet is to get off the bus and call me (905-951-7406) and we can go together in my car to Humber. Do you have any idea as to what time you will arrive? You can e-mail me off this list to finalize details and arrangements at ralvez@ittwo.ca and we can go from there.

looks like the canadiana inn also does tours:

Niagara Falls Day Trips:

Leaves every day in morning and return around 8pm, with free time at the falls Includes tour of Queenston Heights, Brock's Monument, the world's largest natural whirlpool, Clifton Hill, and much, much more Stops at winery on the way for free wine tasting Costs between $40 and $50

no mention of the maid of the myst tour, power station, niagara-on-the-lake, butterfly conservatory, botanical gardens, a walk along the river, skylon tower (some these things are probably too obvious or not worth talking about. i dunno)

probably the offer is only for people who reside at the canadiana inn (like me!), but i could ask.

ah, the paradox of choice ;) Choose your trips like you choose your linux distro: keep it simple! ;-)

I'll be game for whatever suits you best. I wouldn't mind seeing some of those other attractions, especially niagara-on-the-lake (I've heard it's where all the people rich enough to take a helicopter to Toronto every morning live... nice mansions. ;). I'll probably be in Toronto again before you, so you decide what you want to see and do most. If I miss anything, I'll do it another time.

Dusty

I am going to be getting to Toronto via MegaBus, which is supposed to drop me off at the Toronto Coach Terminal. I am wondering if anyone has taken MegaBus to Toronto before and knows if they make any other stops that might be a better place to get off, and if not, what the best way to get to Humber College from the Coach Terminal is. Looking on Google maps, I am told the fastest route is to walk to the Georgetown Train Service, take that to the Bolton Bus service, and take that to the college. That has an estimated travel time of 94 minutes, which would mean I would be arriving at the college about 9:15 AM (late for registrations).
