Summer Fun

Filed under: Culture — Diana Condolo @ 7:44 am

Anyone that knows me knows that summer is my favourite time of year - a time to be outdoors and enjoy the city festivals, events, or just walking around. The Toronto jazz festival is running this week so I thought I would head down to Nathan Phillips square to enjoy some live music and be surrounded by happy people, watch the soaring birds (I think I detect some coordinating movement with the music), and enjoy a coffee which I really shouldn’t have. But I was mistaken, all the free jazz at the square is on during the day when the unemployed and the tourists can enjoy it. I think it would serve people well if the committee members decided to schedule concerts at the square immediately after work when people can enjoy something relaxing for an hour or two before heading home.

Here is some nice things I have done this summer so far:
Getting ready for Taste of Little Italy

Playing Giant Scrabble

Really wanted to capture a shot of the girl drinking when they poured water from the pan…it was the funniest thing

Dancers with water...didn't catch them drinking.. damn

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse???

Now I must think about what I will be doing this weekend. Have a good one.
