My wife and I are considering going to the Buffalo Zoo tomorrow, as this weekend marks our 1 year anniversary, and I was wondering what else we should try and see while we are over there or where is a good restaurant to check out. She doesn’t drink, so bars aren’t necessary. ---

Go to Toronto, get a nice room, and go out to dinner at any one of the many good restaurants. After dinner, take her back to said hotel room and fuck like primates. > [@boxxa](#): > > For historical things, the Naval Museum by the harbor, walking tours of the city by the grain elevators, and frank lloyd wright tours Whom ever decided to start walking tours of the city by the bum infested grain elevators should be kicked in the dick.
