Seasonal Lights night walk, December 17th

Sunday, December 18th, 2011

Sorry about posting this after the fact, but it was organised at short notice and only “declared an official walk” during the walk! I’m really only creating this entry so that I have a record of the walk, it’s hashtag (TOPW:SL) and somewhere to attach the slideshow.

Christmas Market at the Distillery District, December 15

Monday, December 12th, 2011

Let’s squeeze in an off-schedule meetup at the Toronto Christmas Market in the Distillery District.

Date: Thursday December 15th.

Meet: 6:00pm outside Balzac’s coffee shop – when you come through the main gates, keep heading straight (towards the huge Christmas tree) – there ought to be space to meet up between the tree and the car park.

Route: Yeah, there’s no route – we’ll probably need to break into small groups (in order to negotiate our way through the crowd). I’m sure we’ll meet up at the beer garden for some mulled wine :)

Hashtag: please use “TOPW:XM”
