I Love Toronto's High Park & Colborne Lodge
High Park in Fall is a thing of beauty. The amount of times I said to my friend, this doesn't even look real, was countless. As much as I love Hampstead Heath in London, High Park is quickly becoming my favoutie park in the world. You only need to watch the video to see why. Plus the the Grenadier Cafe does the best hot chocolate!
Also situated in High Park is the beautiful Colborne Lodge, which is one of 10 historic museums operated by Toronto Culture. The Lodge was built in 1836 by City Surveyor John George Howard for himself and his wife.
I actually fainted whilst in the lodge and the staff were so lovely. They gave me lots of cookies, the recipe of which dates back to the 19th century. Now that is professionalism. Staying authentic, even in a crisis! The Museum is holding a small soiree on the 28th November 2012 and everyone is invited (5 - 7.30pm).

COLBORNE LODGE: History & Ghosts!
Colborne Lodge is located in High Park, Toronto and was the home of architect John George Howard (1803-1890) and his wife Jemima Frances Meikle (1802-1877).
Jemima succumbed to breast cancer in 1877, believed to be the first woman in Toronto diagnosed with the disease. Both Jemima and her husband John are buried in High Park.
To this day, there have been many reports of visitors seeing an older woman looking out of the upper window.. Many believe this woman to be Jemima.
Colborne Lodge is one of 10 museums owned by the City of Toronto and operated by its Museums & Heritage Services department.

Exploring High Park at Night, Old Colborne Lodge, Lonely Howard Tomb
I don't encounter any spirits during this trip (not to my knowledge anyway) but I do show you some interesting places and tell a few weird stories associated with them. This is my first edited video. I've been learning how to use the software over the past week. Some time in the next month or so I plan to get a new, proper camcorder for when I do videos outside.
