Ok, so enough about the history of the CN tower, and more information about my experience whilst I was in the Tower. I will explain what I personally did, however I will also provide some other relevant information, which I feel could be useful for people who might visit the tower in the near distant future.
Now there are many different packages you could by for your tour, and I guess it depends on the individual on what package they want, however I wanted to do the whole shebang, I wanted to experience all that could be experienced, and thus I opted for the Total Tower Experience, which set me back $32 ...
Advantages: Lots of colours to coordinate with your car and good value Disadvantages: Although easy to adjust, it took a couple of attempts to get the hang of it
OMG we're pregnant again! I called my hubby...
"Erm, hun", I said, " well after 10 years of being careful (our daughter had just turned 10) I think our relaxed life and silent nights are going to be over..."
The phone was silent, but I could hear the the last few brown hairs on his head turning a crisp grey....Oh dear.
He came home from work with me waiting with open arms...he said "this is going to cost us a fortune" but hugged me with happiness.

Advantages: telecommunication hub of Toronto, lots to do and see, gift shop, built in revolving restaurant Disadvantages: if you are scared of heights then this may not be for you!
If you are lucky enough to visit Toronto then you must go to CN Tower. CN Tower is not just an icon but it plays a very important part as a telecommunications hub of Toronto. It stands tall at 553.33m and by no surprise hoards of tourists choose to visit the tower every year, around 2 million tourists to be precise. The tower was built in 1976 by Canadian National, thus the name CN. It was made with the intention that it would be the worlds tallest tower. CN Tower is situated at the heart of the entertainment disrict and is very easily accessible by the tube and by car, which is how we got there. We actually chose to go there late evening as there would not be so many tourists at that time and we could enjoy being there more, minus the bustling crowds and long queues.
INSIDE THE TOWER
There are 4 lookout levels but not surprisingly ...
