The Games Are Ending
Today the pinecone-shaped cauldron for the PanAm and ParaPanAm Games will go dark as the final closing ceremonies take place for the ParaPanAm event today. It has been an interesting month in the city without the traffic chaos that had been predicted by many! I took this pic from the stairs of the Rogers Centre where our Toronto BlueJays baseball team plays. In the middle right below our flag you can see some of the historic railway cars that are displayed in Roundhouse Park - I'll have to do a post on them one day.

A great view...
glad it went better than expected!
Wow, this is a delightful, lovely view!
Thanks for pointing out the historic railway car. I might have missed it if you hadn't. Great that Toronto could host the games.
modern city
I agree, that it has been a great month in Toronto! Great shot from the stairs.
I'd like a peek inside one or two of those cars.
Great view, with so many components !
Nice view with our Canadian flag.
This is a great photo looking out over the plaza with the flag flying in the foreground. I love it.
The PanAm and ParaPanAm Games truly have been more exciting and less than a hassle as some people thought. I cannot believe it's nearly over already.
I love all the photos you've shown us!
A good view. I've never been to the Roundhouse.
Can you imagine what these two events would have been like with a Ford still in the mayoral chair?
Oo! I like the way the flag pops out.
Gorgeous Maple Leaf flag!
Got yourself a good position for your shot!
The wind was just right to get the maple leaf at it's finest!
By the way, I have neglected to compliment you on how well the Blue Jays are playing. My Red Sox have been terrible, so I have shifted over to the Blue Jays for the rest of this season. Good luck!
