Start with a hearty breakfast or early lunch at Peter's Place. This small, crowded Greek/Mediterranean diner is known for its soups and desserts. Arriving early helps you beat the rush before it gets busy.
17:21
Walk west to Confederation Park. This spot is the closest park to the waterfront anchor, offering a quiet place to stretch your legs and enjoy the early afternoon air before the light changes.
17:36
Head to City Park. This is the place to go if you want to see the local hockey culture in action, as the rink here is regularly conditioned for the sport. The open space offers great views of the surrounding area as the sun begins its descent.
18:21
Position yourself at the Royal Military College waterfront. As the sun sets toward the WSW, the golden light reflects off the water and the historical structures. This is the prime moment to take in the view and the atmosphere of the military academy.
