Today is my challenge day. I'm flying from Columbus to Toronto via Washington DC and have there only 1 hour to change my flight. The travel to the airport was OK - no problems, no late. I even met a Czech who lives here for a long time (25+ years) and it was a nice meeting.
Now I'm waiting in Canadair CRJ-700, flight UA6213 and hope everything will run smoothly.
Ready to Fly, sir!
Good Bye, States...
12:30
Our pilots did a great job and we landed about 15 minutes before schedule. Even organization in DC run fast, so I found my gate about 5 minutes after unboarding. Now I seat in another Canada CRJ-700 (UE6195; funny to fly to Canada in Canadair) and waiting for take off. Everything runs well.
15:00
Back in Toronto and sitting in the train to the city center. I traveled with members of F-22 Raptor Demo Team (I'm sure Ken would be in heaven) and I even saw Niagara Falls from the airplane (visiting of Niagara falls scheduled on Friday). Well done, United Airlines, that was good.
Back in Toronto
20:30
If I said that America looks a little different than in my imagines, Toronto is exactly like it. Tall skyscrapers everywhere, overcrowded streets, busy city. I am sharing my room with a Californian guy who drives in his motorcycle whole North America from one baseball stadium to another.
During my evening walk I came to Town House and discover a secret message just under the roof. Do you know about it? Yes, it is there... Somewhere. Try to discover too if you'll visit Toronto once day. A small hint: look at corbels
Nathan Phillips Square
Called my country Czechoslovakia is one thing, but...WTF?!?
