St Lawrence Market

Toronto's sensational St. Lawrence Market has been a neighborhood meeting place for more than 200 years. The restored, high-trussed 1845 South Market building houses more than 50 specialty food stalls including cheese vendors, fishmongers, butchers, bakers and pasta makers with lots of action and yelling of prices in silly voices.
Inside the old council chambers upstairs, the St. Lawrence Market Gallery is now the city's exhibition hall, with rotating displays of paintings, photographs, documents, and historical relics. On the opposite side of Front Street, the North Market building houses a farmers' market on Saturday and an antiques market on Sunday.

Ski Trip

There was a ski trip on Feb 13 before I join the LINC4-5 class. I heard Manal say it was very fun. Manal took her son  went to the Earl Bales Park together. It was a very cold day. So Manal and her son skated about three hours. But her son had a lot of fun that day. He likes skiing very much. And he wants to ski next time. My  son likes skiing,  too.I think all children  like skiing. Skiing is a good form of exercise.
