I live within a couple hours of the CN Tower. I have been to the base of it MANY many times. I have never been up to the top - I am not a huge fan of heights. Add crowds to that and that's not really my thing. Well. I did it. My wife and I went up and I have to say - it was worth it! But, I did it, I bought the fridge magnet afterwards and may just leave it at that!
