Friday was their first full day in Toronto, and it was filled with activities, it began with a trip to Niagara Falls, where they learned how, 10,000 years ago, the Ice Age led to the creation of the falls. The next stop was a visit to the Butterfly Conservatory, where they entered a climate-controlled greenhouse and were instantly surrounded by thousands of butterflies of all sizes, shapes, and colors.
