DAY AT THE TORONTO ISLAND FOR BEAUTIFUL SUNDAY ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒธ

Hello my Dearest Steemians,

Some of you may remember my blog from the last year about our amazing TORONTO ISLAND, another one of my favorite places to visit. This time I took different photos and I took a lot, so I will have to make Part ll blog next week. This week I am focusing primarily on the nature and next week will be more about the fun part, especially for the kids. Although our boys are still too young to go on all the crazy rides, we were able to find enough fun stuff for them. However, letโ€™s talk about that next week and focus on the the nature, my favorite part of this magical place.

I actually took this photo on the way back while we were waiting for the next ferry. I took some shots on the way there from the ferry window; however, this one is much better. I also took similar one last year.

This is our ferry, after we came out.

Everyone is excited, coming here with their plan of leisure things to do and there is truly so much to chose from.

This lovely pond with a fountain in the middle is located just by the bridge, before you get on the other side of the island. It truly looks like a place from a fairyland; the only thing missing, is a pot of gold, leprechaun and fairies, lol. Well ducks and dragonflies were there instead, which was good enough for me, except the shots of dragonflies did not turned out well, to my huge disappointment. I got the chance to photograph dragonfly again later, on other location, which is slightly better but not great neither. You'll see, when you scroll down.

From here you can see the bridge we just crossed while we are on the other side.

Must be fun to ride one those carts and what a view; trees and greenery everywhere.

Now I am getting to my favorite part of the island that covers the flowers and everything that comes with it. I took tons of photos of flowers, but I will be making separate blogs with those, so please stay tuned. The next few photos are just examples of all the beauty that is there. This island is truly heaven for bees, butterflies and dragonflies, so if you love a macro photography and you have a chance to visit Toronto, then I highly recommend to come here.

And here is some double MONARCH vision; honestly, I thought I was seeing double, lol. I was getting tired, because I took this photo later that day. I am even surprised that one of the shots turned out well, because these two were moving fast in their butterfly tango.

My not too successful dragonfly shot, although first one ever, that is at least okay. I tried to come closer, but she did not wait for me, lol. Also, this wasnโ€™t the right light angle; unfortunately, I was not able to aim from a better one, since I would have to step on the flowers.

At last, here is the beach and what can I say! It almost looks like topical beach, even if it's not especially with the sailboat floating by rocks. You may wonder why they are only few people there; however, most people prefer to be on the grass on the other side. We were there too, right by playground and splash bath.

Canadian Geese were flying above the lake all day long.

One more beautiful bridge, which I have no idea where is leading. I have to investigate when I come back next time.
