Check to see if the Jays are in town, if there's a concert, or do a stadium tour. New bar titled the Sportnet Grill that overlooks the field (located in the Marriott) and the local sports radio station often hosts shows is another interesting spot to check out.

Parks & Nature
Take the ferry (bay street) or a water taxi (spadina or york piers) over to Centre Island. There are great views of the city, bike and walking trails, restaurants and beaches. For the younger crowd, head to Wards Island where they have a volleyball net and a packed beach on summer weekends.
