Toronto by day, Toronto by night...
Sep. 1st, 2007 07:33 pmI like what I've seen so far, in Toronto. Unfortunately I've covered so many kilometres of footpath sidewalk that I ended up hobbling about the place, blisters on both feet...
Hopefully my feet have recovered enough for a night out. Queen St. West is rapidly filling up with goths, and there's a shade more black on display in the hostel common room. DarkRave v.91 is on tonight, and it looks like fun - I'll head over there in a couple of hours, once I've had time to cook some dinner.
Jonathan and I spent the afternoon at the Airshow, volunteering for SmartRisk - we spent a few hours handing out giveaways, talking to people about the organisation, and being deafened by the jets flying overhead. A good way to spend an afternoon... plus, it got us in to the airshow without having to pay for the tickets. I think the F-22 takes the prize for loudest piece of military hardware on show, while the Canadian Snowbirds stunt team had some very sharp formation flying.
The only downside to spending eight hours in the sun is that I'm now glowing like the red paper lanterns that decorate chinatown at the moment, and I need to drink a few litres of water. I've just returned from the traditional Red Bull and Gatorade shopping run, and I'm looking forward to the club.
