February 27 is a celebration of those giant northern bears that all the world loves, especially when they are little cubs. EarthCam has set up live webcams of the Cochrane Polar Bear Habitat in Ontario, Canada. The habitat is the only captive facility for only polar bears.
You can "visit to Henry, Ganuk and Inukshuk at The Cochrane Polar Bear Habitat in Ontario, Canada with EarthCam’s HD live streaming webcams. Virtually travel into their enclosures and watch live as “the boys” explore their habitat, play around in the snow and do anything and everything to make you say “aww”!" Courtesy of EarthCam.

Niagara Falls to beat the February Blahs
Winter doldrums means it is time for a break, so time for one of our favourite getaways to Niagara Falls. We grabbed a hotel package from Embassy Suites located just above the falls which came with two tickets to the Greg Frewin Magic Show, a $30 meal coupon, two breakfast buffets and two 48 hour WeGo transit passes. If the weather was warmer I would have looked for a bus tour of some of the famous Niagara Falls wineries, but we stopped at a couple on the way home anyways.
Reading the hotel reviews the lack of parking at the hotel was a major negative from a boatload of people. You show up and pay $60 a day for valet parking and if you don't want to pay that small fortune apparently there is a parking lot somewhere in the next area code that has a shuttle running to the hotel - for only half the price of the valet parking. Screw that, we parked close by for a heck of a lot less than that.
The hotel room was nice suite and had a side view of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, although you had to look through pretty dirty windows. The hotel is just beside the Niagara Incline Railway which is just $5.50 for a round trip ride and takes you right down to the falls.
We ended up going to the Keg Restaurant on the 9th floor of the hotel for an early dinner (great view of the falls) and headed over to Greg's Magic Show. This was our second trip to see his show and his show is very professional and includes a few tigers and exotic birds.
I definitely liked the WeGo public transit bus system that runs downtown and to many of the area. tourist attractions. This is the first time that we have used the buses but I am down for using them on future trips as well. The three lines are red, blue and green and they are constantly looping through the routes every twenty or forty minutes for just $8 a day (unlimited rides).
We kept away from the wax museums on Clifton Hill but did find time to gamble at both the Niagara Falls casinos. We gambled and gambled and took home tens of dollars. To round out our visit we went to see the Bird Kingdom. See you next time Niagara Falls.
See more of the misty city after the jump.

Webster Falls in winter
because they don't clear them in winter time. Temporarily suffering with bum knees I couldn't go down to the park at the top of the falls but I could check out the view from across the falls. There was a couple of brave souls that made their way down the frozen valley to the base of the falls.
"From the escarpment brow, noted for its panoramas, to the forested depths of the gorge below, the Spencer Gorge Conservation Area exhibits the physical features which have made the Niagara Escarpment one of Ontario's most spectacular geological formations. This significant natural area contains two beautiful waterfalls: Webster and Tew Falls. Webster is a magnificent tiered waterfall and Tew, which towers at 41 metres, is only a few metres shorter than Niagara Falls. Both offer spectacular vistas of the gorge."
Parking in the winter is $10 per car and from May until October 31 the cost increases with an additional fee of $5 per person.

Motorcycle Show Toronto 2018
The Yamaha Riding Academy and the Latimer/Constantini Stunt-riding and the OPP Golden Helmets demonstrations are setup in the back while out in the big hall are the motorcycles, riding clubs and vendors. The largest display areas were for Harley-Davidson, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Honda along with Suzuki, BMW, Indian Motorcycle, Piaggio and Ducati. Friday was She Rides Night celebrating women riders.
Air Canada had an interesting booth where they were promoting sending your bike away on a jet plane, presumably to the same place you intend to vacation.
There is plenty of parking outside ($15) or you could park underneath the Enercare Centre for a few dollars more ($18).

Dwayne Gretzky and the 2018 Toronto's Festival of #BeerLove
Winter is made for chilling the kegs of draught beer that will be served during summer's glorious celebration of the golden brew. The musical group Dwayne Gretzky will be headlining the Saturday night concert series during the upcoming July 26-29, 2018 brewhaha held at Bandshell Park in Exhibition Place.
"The legendary Saturday of Toronto's Festival of Beer is a day that everyone needs to experience," said Les Murray, President of Toronto's Festival of Beer, "Dwayne Gretzky will bring the hit songs and the energy and we'll bring a massive selection of brews and tasty culinary treats for fans to enjoy." Dwayne Gretzky is a collection of Toronto musicians that delve into nostalgia, uniting fans of all ages to sing along to the greatest hits of the last 50 years and by performing with energy and fidelity."
2018 is special because they added another day to the annual 19+ sampling event presented by the Beer Store. TFOB2018 now starts on Thursday which is good because they sell out tickets in advance of the event. 2018 Early-Bird tickets are already gone.

Formula 1 drops Grid Girls
FIA Formula One World Championship series has decided to remove the ladies who hold the signs for driver teams during the pre-race ceremonies and change to Grid Kids for 2018. This will also apply to other races during the Grands Prix weekends. Formula 1 is an open wheel, single-seat racing series that takes place mostly outside of North America and will start its current season on March 25, 2018 in Australia.
Pre-race celebrations and also trophy presentations often featured ladies that added to the 'glamour and spectacle' of the race events and for many people were highlights of the off track entertainment. In Toronto we often had the Toronto Sun Grid Girls and the Budweiser Pit Crew contestants.
“Over the last year we have looked at a number of areas which we felt needed updating so as to be more in tune with our vision for this great sport," said Sean Bratches, Managing Director, Commercial Operations at Formula 1. While the practice of employing grid girls has been a staple of Formula 1 Grands Prix for decades, we feel this custom does not resonate with our brand values and clearly is at odds with modern day societal norms. We don’t believe the practice is appropriate or relevant to Formula 1 and its fans, old and new, across the world.”
Certainly the use of Grid Girls is something that people may have strong opinions both for and against, I know that I would miss them if they were dropped from participating in the racing scene. They really are promotional models helping to advertise the race and its associated events.
The Tilted Kilt ladies weren't Grid Girls but you could find them on Thunder Alley
