Two Toronto Island ferries crossing the harbour with the Empire Sandy (1942) in the background.
Starboard side views of two of the Toronto Island ferries crossing harbour. There are three near-identical ferries: William Inglis (1935), Sam McBride (1939) and Thomas Rennie (1951). In the background under sail is the schooner-rigged Empire Sandy (1942), a deep-sea tug converted in the late 1970s to a passenger sailing ship undertaking training and voyages.
Ivy Sharp had a day of leisure in Toronto before flying back to England. She recorded nothing about Toronto but stated: 'My return to my flat was indeed a pleasure, but I am nevertheless very pleased to have experienced the north-west passage.'
