Fog: Acts like a sedative on the city


There is not a lot of substance in this post, I just really felt as though I had to share how lovely it was to be up at seven in the morning behind Front Street on a monday morning and to see this.

The whole city was covered in a thick grey blanket and the tops of the buildings were completely covered. The streets were just as busy as they always are downtown at that time of day - but it seemed quieter, calmer and safer.

The CN tower is pictured to the left - and you can't even see halfway up it. And it stayed that way for the entire day, and well into the night.

I have refused to go up the CN tower for the year that I have lived here - but looking back, I really should have gone on this day. Now that would have been a unique view of the city.
