Visit to Casa Loma, Toronto, ON

This time Kate and Greg went to Toronto to visit Casa Loma, a medieval castle that overlooks Toronto.
Armed with only the combined sense of direction that some compare to a blindfolded kid waving a stick around searching for the pinata, and with directions from Mapquest (which obviously was created by someone who has taken too many blows from pinata sticks to the head) we headed for historic Casa Loma.
We ran into troubles right away with street signs. It is rumored if you are not a 10 1/2 foot tall man or woman who can read braille, you will miss every street sign in Toronto, as the signs are either well hidden or high and small enough that possibly only the hubble telescope to view. Sufice to say we missed our intended cut-offs several times.
Luckly people like to help out lost Aussie's as Kate asked several times where such in such street was. With perseverance we found the castle. Here's what we saw. If you look closely the CN Tower is in the background of a couple of the pics.
