Nuit Blanche

Hey everyone, things have been a bit slow around here lately. We have just been saving and its starting to get cold. But I am going to push on and keep posting more often so keep your eyes here.

Here are a few recent shots from the last couple of weeks. The weekend before last was the last warm one of the year, so we made the most of it. Breakfast on a patio.
We had the north American specialty, the breakfast burrito.

These are awesome, full of egg and potato and spicy goodness.
We spent the afternoon drinking beers on our balcony. These are Sarah's favourite beers,
they are called Amsterdamn, but are brewed in Toronto.
On the weekend Toronto celebrated Nuit Blanche, an arts festival that takes over the city. There are hundreds of art exhibits all over the city. It goes from 7pm to 7am for one night only. We only visited one part of town but it was huge.

This one was actually done by an Aussie, this is where your taxes are going.
All the exhibits were built in and around the streets, the ones we saw were in a part of town called Liberty Village. Its all old factories that have been converted into trendy office spaces and apartments for yuppies.

It worked really well for the event though with different things to see everywhere.



These critters had to keep this up all night.

This was my favourite
The waterfall from a third storey window.
It was a damn cold night though, got down to 5 degrees!

That's just a snow machine though! It was a cool event, was fun to see the stuff, even it most of it was a bit ridiculous.

Till next time..
