Being a laktwatsera involves flying alot, who would have thought that i have "acrophobia". Acrophobia: An abnormally excessive and persistent fear of heights. Funny it seems but when i go up high buildings, uhuh im definitely in big trouble. Excessive sweating, rapid heartbeat that i even palpitate sometimes, my legs are like jel-O like they're stick together i can't move. To think that climbing mountains doesn't have that effect on me. Going up is never a problem its when i go down and look down, then that does it . I can' t really explain why the said symptoms occurs. During my second trip to Toronto im proud to say that maybe i conquered it already. Actually this is the second time i climb the CN Tower.( Facts on CN Tower, see in the end of this blog) The first i climb it, i have my eyes close and been able to go around the skypod 4 times(proud to have done it that time.) But this time around i made my adventure more exciting,  i have walked and sit and lay down the the glass floor and really look down the 113stories beyond ground. Whew boy, im really brave huh!!! No eyes close,even have a proof to show it!!! Living on the edge hehehe. And another things come face to face with the Niagara Falls, with its raging water via the Maid of the Mist. Its like facing nature at is fullest. Adventure that is one of a kind for me. Might go raffelling or bungee jumping soon or sky dining perhaps, who knows!!! CN Tower = Located in the heart of Downtown Toronto between the SkyDome and the Metro Toronto Convention Centre on Front Street, just north of Bremner Blvd. Near the top, a 24 sq. metre glass floor allows visitors to watch the streets under their feet. The CN Tower is the world's tallest building as well as Canada's most recognizable icon. At a height of 553.33m (1,815 ft., 5 inches), the tower is the centre of tourism in Toronto. With a chance to see the breathtaking view of downtown Toronto, the CN tower attracts approximately 2 million visitors each year. Things to do in the tower include walking on glass floor, eating over 1000 ft above ground at the revolving 360 Restaurant, watching a movie about the construction of the CN tower and of course enjoying the view. CN Tower Facts At 181 storeys, 553.33m (1,815 ft., 5 in.) it is the world's tallest building and free-standing structure Height of: Glass Floor - 113 storeys - 342m (1,122ft.) Look Out Level - 114 storeys- 346m (1,136ft.) Sky Pod - 147 storeys- 447m (1,465ft.)
