Walking around, wathing the Borg/McEnroe film and being totally amazed

Friday was a day of more walking in this great city. I was at the dollarstore first to pick up a few Halloweenstuff, it's amazing how much they have over here, well compared to almost nothing back home since Halloween's not that big.






Walking downtown before the movie Borg/McEnroe I made a detour and ended up seeing some more cool building and the CN tower from different angles, well one of them was when I walked back from having been to the movie. Also there's cool roadsigns and banners telling you what district you're in.


  

  



  



  

  

At the movie we got a short Q&A(Questions and Answers) with the director Janus Menz(he's Danish). Some other coll stuff's happening on King Street for a few of the TIFF days. Actually the "Three musketters were at the cinema too"











Walking home I went into Michaels.... that's a three stories hobby/DIY shop! I was probably going around "ahh-ing" and "ohh-ing" to myself all the time. Picked up a few things, will see if I get by again, I mean they're open until 10pm weekdays!
Also, there's always something happening on Dunda's square, Friday night someone had painted a car with spraypaint.

  

     


The old Parliment building is amazing too and standing on the "right" side of the street I just had to take a "Fraser point of view" photo. This is it for Friday, Saturday's post is coming up soon too.

Bustour, Buick Rivera 1971, Guest Panel, Galadinner

I will start out with telling you all that there are some photos missing from the bustour, that's because I went by the "courthouse" from the Pilot myself on Wednesday so please go look at that post for those photos. I've got lots more but I've chosen these for you to see what we were up to Saturday August 16th.
